费城, PENN./ORANGE, 加利福尼亚州. (三月. 1, 2018)- Undefeated and world ranked welterweight contender Taras Shelestyuk is ready to go big game hunting in 2018.
该 2012 Olympic Bronze medal winner from Sumy, 乌克兰, who now fights out of Los Angeles, 加利福尼亚州, has won the major regional titles, and he feels he has been overlooked by the perceived elite of the 147 磅级别.
Shelestyuk, 16-0 同 10 击倒, continues to work on his craft while he waits for a major fight to materialize.
“I want to fight Keith Thurman, 丹尼·加西亚, 肖恩·波特, Errol Spence or the winner of the Jeff Horn – Terence Crawford fight,” 说Shelestyuk.
“I know that I have the skills and pedigree to beat those guys. I just need my opportunity, and I know that will be coming soon. I have been working hard in the gym, and I sparred with Viktor Ortiz for his bout with Devon Alexander, as well as WBA Super Welterweight Champion Brian Castano.”
Shelestyuk also has been helping with the career of his wife Alina. Alina is a runway model, who has done numerous photo shoots in Los Angeles.
Shelestyuk is co-promoted by Banner Promotions and Thompson Boxing.
