Boxing Commission Launches Boxer Health & Safety Advisory Website

 

The British & Ирландски орган по бокс (БИБА) today announced the launch of the BIBA Health & Safety Executive websitewww.boxbiba.co.ukthat not only covers Health & Safety advice, resources and information for boxers, but also features Mental Health awareness information and resources.

 

 

 

 

Тъй като 2016 the British & Irish Boxing Authority have strived to improve all aspects of Boxer Health & Safety, including appointing a number of specialists, including renowned sports injury specialist Professor Michael Graham MBChB; PhD; FRSM; BASEM; MICR; MCSFS; PCCMH; APIL Expert; FSB to the BIBA Medical Advisory Board to develop additional Boxer Health and Safety procedures, such as Cognitive Testing both as part of their licensing procedure as well as the post event medical, as well as to head up a team of experts to undertake long term research into Combat Sports related head injuries.

 

 

 

 

През март 2017 the British & Irish Boxing Authority were the first commission to introduce Infra-Scanners, a portable infrared brain scanner that can detect signs of bleed to the brains, at events sanctioned by themselves, following a number of serious head injuries within the sport, including the death of Mike Towell in 2016.

 

 

Another recent British & Irish Boxing Authority initiative was the introduction in January 2018 of permitting Rehydration drinks in the corner for all contest of eight rounds and over, in an attempt to ensure that boxers remain hydrated in longer contests, which in itself can also reduce the risk of potential swelling or bleeds to the brain.

 

 

On announcing the new Health & Safety Executive website BIBA CEO and Executive Vice President Gianluca Di Caro stated;

 

 

Back in February we signed up to the Mental Health Charter for Sport and Recreation and as part of our action plan we decided to create a specific website to raise Mental Health awareness within the sport.

 

 

During the discussions with the committee that overseas our Mental Health policies it dawned on me that whilst it is essential that we get the information and resources available on the very important subject of Mental Health, that we should also cover other equally important Health & Safety matters, especially those that may reduce the potential risks of bleeds to the brain as well as take a serious look at the current rules of the sport to improve the Health & Safety of those that compete.

 

 

Another factor that led us to decide to create an all-encompassing HSE website was that our leading team of specialists are currently undertaking a long-term research project into head injuries within not just Boxing but all Combat Sports.

 

 

Even though we are only a few months into this research project we have already highlighted a number of areas, within the current rules, that need to be seriously looked at and changes made, we will also be highlighting these proposed changes on the new HSE website ahead of lobbying all World and Regional Championship Organisations, the Boxing and Combat Sports Industry Associations as well as other Commissions around the world to try and get these incredibly vital changes to the rules introduced.

 

 

Those of us who govern the sport need to consider making much needed changes to the rules now, as well as move with the times and embrace new technology, especially if these can prevent further tragedies, as I believe it is our, the Commissions that Govern the Sport’s responsibility to ensure that the Health & Safety of those that compete is of the highest level possible, not to do so would be dangerous and irresponsible and could even destroy our beloved sport, by basically help in making the case, by our own inaction, for those that want Professional Boxing banned.”

 

 

The British & Ирландски орган по бокс (БИБА) Health & Safety Executive websitewww.boxbiba.co.ukwent live today and will be updated regularly to provide boxers with an unequalled information and resources reference point.

Може ли Saunders да си осигури най-впечатляващата победа до момента над Lemieux?

Били Джо Сондърс ще излезе на ринга на декември 16 в Канада като управляващ и защитаващ шампион на WBO в средна категория, като горд притежател на колан, който спечели още през декември 2015 при победата на колега пътешественик Анди Лий.

 

Но тъй като очерта ирландеца Лий с успех с мажоритарно решение да стане световен шампион в Манчестър Арена, Сондърс го е защитавал само на два пъти, с единодушно решение триумфира над Артур Акавов и Уили Монро-младши., наскоро.

 

Срещу игра руски акавов, непобеденият титуляр на световната титла далеч не беше впечатляващ и може би дори имаше късмет да получи толкова удобно решение в крайна сметка в Центъра за отдих Lagoon на шотландска земя. Победата над американския претендент Монро-младши беше много по-добра, след това пое Доминик Ингъл за най-нов треньор.

 

Но последният двубой все още беше явна афера и не направи нищо за по-нататъшно или засилване на Сондърс’ апел към по-широка аудитория, тъй като той доста изнемогваше от новородената южна лапа доста удобно. За по-голямата част от защитата на титлата, той изобщо не е бил накаран да работи, с Монро влезе с причудливо неефективен план за игра.

 

Обаче, 28-годишният След това ще се изправи безспорно на най-трудния си тест за кариера до момента срещу бившия шампион от 160 лири Дейвид Лемио, далеч по-сериозно предизвикателство от неопитен и младежки Крис Юбанк-младши, безразличен Анди Лий и далеч от заплахата на Уили Монро Джуниър.

 

Трудно удареният канадски Lemieux ще влезе във въжетата на пръстена като евент аутсайдер в последните боксови коефициенти да преобладават на домашна територия, обещаваща цена за боец ​​при силен прилив на победи от късно. Тъй като е бил порочно спрян в галантно показване срещу дивизионния крал Генадий Головкин през октомври 2015, 28-годишният спечели четири поредни победи, включително два големи нокаута на Глен Тапия и Къртис Стивънс.


От всички противници Сондърс е ходил с пръсти до днес, никой не е притежавал ударната сила на Лемио, и това може да се окаже решаващ фактор ела битка нощ. Последната надежда за дома се насърчава от Златното момче на Оскар Де Ла Хоя, които на пръв поглед имат желание да съпоставят канадците с основната крава на пари Саул Канело’ Алварес догодина, вместо да го хвърляте с „GGG’ за пореден път в дългоочакван реванш.

 

Въпреки че е фаворитът да надделее и поддържа непобедимия си рейтинг за това, което ще бъде неговото моминско начинание извън Обединеното кралство в професионалната му кариера, изглежда шансовете всъщност са подредени срещу Сондърс за тази последна среща.

 

Това е очевидно, твърде, че Сондърс не може да се похвали с огромната сила, способна да държи Lemieux от флота далеч от опасните зони през целия си мач. Нокаут артистът Lemieux произвежда това, което в крайна сметка може да бъде гласувано спиране на годината през март, когато той брутално постави Стивънс’ светва в Ню Йорк.

 

Може ли друг порочен успех за спиране да бъде върху картите на домашна земя? От Saunders и Ingle зависи да изпълнят предстоящия си игрови план перфектно, за да осигурят това, което би било изключително впечатляваща победа на пътя, но изглежда вероятно да бъде наистина тестваща нощ в Квебек.

Decastro Vs Landaeta Showdown For IBF European Crown on October 21st

ASSASSIN BOXING PROMOTIONS & MANAGEMENT

 

Абърдийн, Великобритания. Събота 9тата Септември 2017.

 

 

British Super Middleweight Nathan ‘Nightmare’ Decastro (9-0-0 with 8KOs) is set to challenge Spain’s Ronny Landaeta (12-0-0 with 8KOs) за свободната International федерация по бокс (IBF) European Super Middleweight European Championship at the Palacio de Deportes José María Martín Carpena в Малага, Spain on Saturday October 21во.

 

Decastro, the current MBC International Champion, който в момента е класиран #13 in the IBF Intercontinental ratings, spoke briefly on learning of the golden opportunity.

 

“I can’t put into words what this fight means to me, I am a fighting man and fighting is my life.

 

This is a golden opportunity that I will take with both hands and show everyone what I’m made of.

 

Huge thanks to Lee (Manager Lee McAllister) for sorting this, това, което мога да кажа,, I only signed with his Assassin Boxing Promotions and Management company a few weeks ago and already he’s already got me a shot at title.

 

To fight for any title is an honour, but to fight for a coveted IBF belt is something else.

 

I know this is not an easy fight, Ronny’s undefeated in twelve and has successfully defended his Spanish title twice against top class opposition, but then again he’s not fought me yet, I’m not called the Nightmare for nothing.”

 

Nathan’s Manager, Three Time World Champion Lee McAllister, then added

 

“This a cracking opportunity for Nathan to catapult himself in to the World rankings, exciting times ahead for him if he’s successful.

 

We know we are going into the Lions den as massive underdogs, but I will be making sure that Nathan has space in his bag for the belt when coming home.

 

Това не е всичко, If all goes well in the next few days I hope to be announcing another Assassin Boxing Promotions and Management boxer challenging for an IBF title, here in the UK this time though”

These two champions are both itching to get their belts back so when they meet on 7 октомври, it will be a fight at the highest level and quality and we at AWE are ecstatic to be bringing this fight to the fans in the United States,” каза Чарлз Herring, Председател на AWE– Богатството на Entertainment.
Crolla, 30 years-old of Manchester, Англия има запис на 31-6-3 с 13 нокаута. He won the WBA Lightweight title when he thrilled his hometown fans by scoring a one-punch body shot knockout over Darleys Perez. Crolla defended the title with a hard-fought come from behind stoppage over Ismael Barroso. Crolla dropped the belt when he was on the short end of a unanimous decision to Jorge Linares. В последния си двубой, Crolla lost his 2nd straight unanimous decision to Linares in a rematch that took place on March 25th в Манчестър.

Crolla Quotes
All I want to do is be involved in big fights and Ricky Burns is a three weight World Champion, I’ve got a lot of respect for him,” каза Crolla. “He’s a great fighter and only lost to the very best.
I’m looking forward to going to battle and putting on a display for the fans.

It’s at a good time for both of us. A win puts us back in the mix for titles, I’m not going to say the loser has nowhere to go, but it’s going to be a tough road back. We’re both coming off losing our World Titles and the incentive is to win the fight and get back in the frame.

I could have a tune up fight on the undercard of somewhere and an easier opponent to get me back into things and then a big fight after but I’m not interested in that.

It’s nearly happened before a good few times, a few years ago at Super-Featherweight and again at Lightweight. It’s been talked about for years now. It looked like it wasn’t going to happen but it’s good now we’re finally going to meet.

I’m really happy the fight is in Manchester,” каза Crolla. “It’s going to be one of the first shows since that horrible night with the bombings so it means an awful lot to go back. A lot of people have been asking me to come back to the Arena for my next fight. But if there’s a rematch, I’ll happily go to Glasgow.

“The 24 rounds with Linares puts me in good stead. They weren’t fights where I took a serious beating with huge shots bouncing my head back. Other than the knockdown, I wasn’t on wobbly legs. I enjoyed the experience. I made improvements in the build-up which I didn’t get to show on the night which is a credit to Jorge.

I’ve got nothing against Ricky, he’s a good guy. But once that bell goes we’ll both be willing to dig deep. I’ve wanted this for a long time, I can’t wait.
Burns Quotes

“Това ще бъде голяма борба,” - каза Бърнс. “There was a lot of talk in recent weeks, the response we got was unbelievable. People want to see it and now the deal is done I’m looking forward to it.

It doesn’t bother me where I fight, there will be a good crowd coming down from Scotland. It’s a fight the fans have been getting up for and I’m sure they will turn up in their numbers.

When I held World titles at Super-Featherweight and Lightweight, Crolla’s name was always mentioned but it never happened. He’s a great guy and a great fighter, I don’t think you’ll get much trash talk in the build-up. The best man will win on the night.

I moved up to Super-Lightweight because the World title came up and the chance to make history was there. I’ve been making 140lbs too easily and I’ve had enough notice for this fight and although those last pounds will always be tricky I’m happy to be back down at 135lbs.

I’m always saying to Tony I think I’ve got two or three more years left. At this stage of my career I don’t see the point in getting an easy win. I’d rather go in with a big name. Ако спечеля, I’m going to progress and hopefully get another title shot. That’s the way I’m looking at it.

Everyone keeps asking me how long I have left. The first time I take too many punches or turn up to training and don’t enjoy it – това е. I won’t put myself through it. Especially with training down in Essex for 12 седмици, but at the minute I’m really looking forward to it.

I said to Eddie Hearn that I was 100 per cent up for it, but we’ve been waiting for a couple of weeks from their side so I don’t know what’s been going on.

Crolla just fell short with Linares, although he lost twice he didn’t take a beating. You’ve got to hold your hands upLinares is very good.

It’s a make or break fight for the both of us. Even before I fought Di Rocco I always said I just want to take it one fight at a time. I’ve been the same the whole way through my career but fingers crossed a win here can lead to bigger things.

It’s going to be hard, труден двубой. The two of us will come out and go for itthe fans are the real winners.

What a fight between two great warriors'” каза промоутърът Еди Хърн. “Both Anthony and Ricky are in similar places in the careers and they know that this absolute must win. Knowing these two like I do this is going to be a fight until the finishing bell with neither taking a backward step. It’s an all-British super fight between two great World champions and fans in the Manchester Arena and watching on Sky Sports can expect a wonderful event.

Flying Scotsmen McGivern, Wilson, McRorie and Reilly Score Big Wins In Paisley

 

Доклад: Gianluca Di Caro – Photo Courtesy of On The Ropes TV

В събота вечер, at the On-X Centre in Paisley, the latest offering from Gerard Boyle-Welsh and his On The Ropes team took place. For those that have yet to attend an On The Ropes promoted event, this may be small hall boxing, but believe me the production quality of their events easily equals, if not betters, many of the larger Arena shows from far better known promoters.

It’s not often you see full blown light show, DJs, big screens, stunning promotional girls, full in house broadcast team not just filming the fights but also post fight interviews at small hall shows.

Добре, enough about the production let’s get to the point of the report – The fights themselves.

First fight of the night see Coatbridge’s Ben McGivern against debuting Malcolm Richardson from Blackpool.

Right from the off this bout had the hallmark of a classic small hall fight written all over it. Both lads got straight down to business, attacking from all angles in some style. However around the first minute or so of the round local lad McGivern landed a massive shot to the body. Have to admit, the shot was so venomous I was mightily surprised, no that should be impressed, that Richardson made the count.

On the restart McGivern didn’t need the partisan fans in attendance or his esteemed corner man on the night, three time World Champion Lee McAllister, encouraging him to get back in hard and fast, he just did, landing further big shots to back his not yet fully recovered opponent on to the ropes, before letting rip with yet another massive right to the body with much the same effect as the first, Richardson valiantly tried to rise as the count reached its conclusion, but just failed to do so – Referee Liam Bonner waved the bout off and declared McGivern the victor on the one minute and twenty eight second of round one.

Next up was Perth’s Gary Wilson against debuting James Calveley from Liverpool.

To an outside observer this may have looked a bit of a mismatch, as Wilson towered over Calveley by a good six inches or so, but fight wise it was anything but.

First round see the protagonists locked in a gladiatorial battle that wouldn’t have been out of place at the Colosseum in Rome all those years ago – seriously was a cracking round that swung one way and then the other as they battled it out in centre ring.

Initially it was more of the same in the second that was until Wilson landed a peach of a shot to send the plucky Scouser down.

Calveley made the count easily but Wilson had no intention of letting his opponent off that easily and kept the pressure up with some nice combinations culminating in another huge right to send Calveley down again.

Calveley just about made it to his feet as the count reached eight, but on rising was very, very unsteady on his feet, so much so that referee Liam Bonner had no option but to stop the contest on the one minute fifty one second mark of the second round.

The third contest of the evening see Bellshill’s Barrie McRorie take on tough and very awkward Latvian Vladislavs Davidaitis.

The round started quite sedately with both men sussing the other out for the first minute or so, then it was all action to the final bell, as the two warriors let rip from every conceivable angle.

Round two was more of the same although to be fair both protagonists had settled into a slightly more realistic pace and were landing far better shots than in the first.

Round three see Davidaitis getting more and more success, don’t get me wrong McRorie was landing some real tasty shots of his own, but have to say that was the Latvians round.

The fourth and final round was a cracker, as in the previous rounds the two lads went at it hammer and tongs throughout, however the pace had taken its toll on Davidaitis and the final minute he was fighting his heart out just to survive the continual onslaught from the fired up Scotsman.

After four scintillating rounds Referee Liam Bonners scorecard showed McRorie victorious by a 39-37 points score line.

So onto the final bout of the night, which featured Bellshill’s Paddy Reilly against Vadims Konstantinovs.

Konstantinovs’ fight style is similar to fellow Latvian Vladislavs Davidaitis, as such Reilly had his hands full, albeit right from the opening bell, as unlike in the previous fight both protagonists had only one thought in the mindattack, attack, attack.

It was a full on war, both lads were intent on throwing as many big punches as possible, at the expense of their defences I should add, which ultimately led to Konstantinovs being caught by a cracking shot, that sent him to the canvas around the end of the first minute.

The Latvian made a right mess of judging when to rise, whilst on one knee he kept looking between the referee and his corner as he awaited the signal, which he got back a fraction too late, rising only as referee Liam Bonner actually counted and signalled the eighth time, not just before.

Not only was Konstantinovs distraught when the referee signalled fight over but so was Reilly who was fired up and wanted the fight to carry on, well he’s a fighter and he wanted to fight so can understand that. Actual time of stoppage was one minute and forty-nine seconds of the first round.

What a great night, OK three of the four fights were over well inside the distance, but that can’t take away from the performances of the fighters or as I mentioned at the start, the quality of the promotion itself, I for one can’t wait for the next.

Khan and Newell in Sensational Knockout Form Reign Supreme in Bradford

Доклад: Gianluca Di Caro

The boxing scene in the North of England is really booming, especially around the cities of Leeds and Bradford. One of the main reasons for the increase of professional boxing events in the area is due to Bradford’s very own reigning World Boxing Union (WBU), Global Boxing Union (GBU) и Световната боксова конфедерация (WBC) World Champion Tasif Khan, who for the past couple of years has been working closely with Leeds based promoter Bridie Murtagh to bring stylish Boxing Dinner Shows to the area.

The latest of these took place at the Royal Taj, formerly the Connaught Rooms, в Брадфорд, which not only featured the aforementioned Tasif Khan himself in action, against Tanzania’s Julias Kisarawe, but also heralded the return of unbeaten Lightweight prospect Justin Newell from Leeds, who faced Latvian Aleksandrs Birkenbergs

Besides the local lads on the card, exciting Super Welterweight prospect Chris Wood from Middlesbrough was in action against Belfast’s Marty Kayes, however two top class International bouts scheduled for the event, a ten round Middleweight contest between Ishmael Tetteh and Philip Kotey, as well as an eight round Welterweight contest between Frank Dodzi and Justice Addy, failed to materialise due to visas for three of the boxers failing to arrive in time.

Whilst disappointing that these two fights didn’t go ahead, there was more than enough action to keep the fans happy, as promoter Bridie Murtagh arranged for two exhibition bouts featuring local lads to replace the Internationals ahead of the pro element.

First up was Chris Wood against Marty Kayes in a four rounder.

What a cracking start to the pro section, it was all action right from the opening bell, Wood was clearly fired up and went on the attack, closing down his far more experienced opponent before letting rip with a vast array of combinations at every conceivable opportunity. Kayes though is as savvy as they come, would cover up and seemed more than content to let the fired up youngster get his shots off before countering.

After four scintillating rounds the referee’s scorecard unsurprisingly read as a 40-36 points victory for the Teesider Chris Wood.

Next up was unbeaten Justin Newell in a six rounder against the very tough Latvian Aleksandrs Birkenbergs.

Newell was on fire, slick movement and very fast handsBirkenbergs was no walk over and landed a cracking right hand about midway through the round, which lit the blue touch-paper for Newell, who went hard on the attack throwing some tasty big shots to body and head, which ultimately led to Birkenbergs taking a visit to the canvas. This kid’s tough, he was straight up and going toe to toe with Newell until the end of the round.

Round two was fantastic to watch, both lads giving no quarterbeautiful boxing from both, but Newell’s class proved just too much for the plucky Latvian as the Leeds lad piled some serious pressure in the second half of the fight before letting rip with big double handed salvos that sent Birkenbergs to the deck in the dying seconds of the round, no matter how hard he tried Birkenbergs just couldn’t make the countgreat win on his return to the fray for Newell who won by TKO, the time would you believe 2 минути и 59 секунди от втория кръг.

The headline fight see WBU, GBU and WBC World Champion take on Tanzania’s Julias Kisarawe in a ten round non-championship contest, instead of the scheduled twelve round World Boxing Confederation (WBC) Super Flyweight title defence for Khan, due to lateness of the visa arriving for Kisarawe to complete the necessary Championship paperwork for the contest to be sanctioned by the WBC.

First round started fast and see Kisarawe taking the fight to Khan, however the Bradford lad stood his ground and picked his shots for maximum effect
More of the same in round two, except this time it was Khan that took the fight to Kisarawe.

Round three see Khan really start to get in a flow, regularly backing his opponent up before letting rip with wickedly fast double handed salvos, the power and speed in Khan’s shots finally had the desired effect and the super tough Tanzanian took a very brief trip to the canvas.

On the restart Kisarawe went hard on the attack, throwing seriously solid lefts in an attempt to do unto Khan what the Bradford lad did to him moments before (с 14 KO wins on his record Kisarawe is very capable of doing just that)
Round four was an outright war and fascinating to watch, as was round five and six but for very different reasons. Khan stepped not just one gear but at least two or three and corralled the Tanzanian into a corner and just plain bombarded him with double handed Exocets throughout

More of the same in round seven but this time Khan managed to penetrate Kisarawe’s world class defence and sent him to the canvas for the second time.
Kisarawe managed to make the count but it was clear for all to see that he was in some distress, so much so that referee James Ancliff had no option but to stop the contest on the one minute twelve second mark.

What followed then was a good thirty minute celebration in the ring by Tasif Khan, his team AND many of the fans!!!!

Have to say the Khan/Murtagh co-promoted shows I’ve attended have always been top class, however this event, even though a couple of fights short, was by far the best one yet, the fights were all beautifully matched all action affairs, what more could any fan of the pugilistic arts wish for. Can’t wait for the next, which I hear is going to be in December.

PHILLY PROMOTER ARTIE PELLULO: “ФЛАНАГАН-ПЕТРОВ КРАДИ ШОУТО И МОЖЕ ДА БЪДЕ БОРБА ЗА ГОДИНАТА!”

За незабавно освобождаване

Филаделфия, PA / Манчестър, Великобритания (Март 30, 2017)–Легендарната битка срещу Филаделфия Арти Пелуло кацна във Великобритания в началото на следващата седмица, уверен, че ще добави 45-и световен шампион към своята звездна автобиография.
The 61 годишният италиано-американец, високо цененият лек Петър Петров (38-4-2) прави задължително предизвикателство към домашния герой „Турбо Тери’ Фланаган, непобеденият крал на WBO, в Манчестър Арена в събота седмица и той изглежда като неистов. BT Sport и BoxNation екран на живо във Великобритания.
Миналата сряда, Глин Евънс говори с промоутъра, базиран в Фили.
Беше изключително трудно да се намери информация за личността на Петров. Можете ли да ни просветлите?
Популяризирам бойци от почти 30 години, включително и 44 световни шампиони и трябва да кажа, че Петр е един от най-хубавите хора, които съм срещал; типа, който бихте имали над къщата си. Той току-що се е оженил за момичето, с което излизаше от много дълго време. Той е джентълмен, удоволствие да работя.
Психологически, как ще се справи с представянето си пред хиляди скандални британци?
Постоянно заявявам, че британските фенове на битките са страхотни. Ще си спомните, че имах сделки с Рики Хатън. Те подкрепят своите герои като никой друг. Но гарантирам, че тълпата няма да повлияе неблагоприятно на Петров.
Да бъдеш на път всъщност е като да си си вкъщи за него, защото той никога не е воювал в Русия и не е участвал в осиновената си родина Испания от пет години. Той спечели и шестте си битки в САЩ и, преди това, той се състезаваше в Германия, Аржентина и Черна гора. Гарантирам, че изправянето пред партизанска тълпа в Манчестър няма да се отрази на работата му. Фактически, ще го енергизира, развълнувай го.
И нямам никакъв проблем с официалните лица във Великобритания. В интерес на истината, Спечелих първата си световна титла във Великобритания, когато Отис Грант надгради Райън Роудс в родния му град Шефилд за вакантната титла на WBO в средна категория още през (Декември) 1997.
Преди това, моят боец ​​Тирел Бигс официално беше напред в съдийската карта, преди Гари Мейсън да го нокаутира в шоуто на Мики Дъф в Роял Албърт Хол (Октомври 1989) и Джон Томпсън беше на картите, преди Лиъм Смит да го сложи да легне точно на това място 18 месеци назад. Винаги получавате справедлив шейк с британците.
Какви са качествата на Петров като боец?
Открих го по време на участието му в турнира ESPN Boxcino в лека категория в началото 2014 и, вярвай ми, между въжетата, той е истинската сделка. Трябва само да гледате лентите му, за да оцените, че той е безпощаден, умен, може да боксира или да удари и той е благословен с много добро око. Петър има реално разбиране за това, което се случва на ринга във всеки един момент и може да приеме съответно. Той дава a 110% усилие всеки път.
Каква е вашата оценка за шампиона Фланаган? За какво трябва да помни Петров?
Бях на ринга през нощта, когато Тери Фланаган изби Диего Магдалено в два кръга, защото Джон Томпсън предизвика Лиъм Смит тази нощ и това, което видях беше много, много добър боец. Тери е умна южна лапа, която е много жилава и продължава да идва. Без съмнение, той ще се стреми да удължи своята много впечатляваща ненадмината серия.
Какъв курс видяхте, че пое борбата? Кой ключов фактор ще определи победителя?
Тази битка открадва шоуто и може да бъде „Битка на годината“, сериозно. Това е толкова добър мач. И Тери, и Петр са приятелски настроени към телевизията и фен. Ще бъде страхотен театър.
Няма основен фактор, който да отличава едното от другото. Ще става въпрос за това как двама бойци в самия връх на своите игри се справят с натиска и остават при плана си за игра.
