ΧΙΟΥΣΤΟΝ, TEXAS (Μάρτιος 31, 2015) – Bombs will be flying once again when Παραγωγές του Gary Shaw και Savarese προωθήσεις’ undefeated Light-Heavyweight slugger, Medzhid “Β-52” Bektemirov (15-0, 12 KOs), κάνει τον τρόπο του πίσω στο δαχτυλίδι ενάντια Michael Gbenga (20-18, 20 KOs). Bektemirov vs. Gbenga, ένα 8-γύρο, θα λάβει μέρος Σάββατο, Απρίλιος 18, at College Park Center located on the campus of the University of Texas Arlington on the undercard of Crawford-Dulorme.
Κατάταξη #10 από το WBA, Bektemirov θα επιδιώξει άλλη μια νίκη ενάντια Gbenga, as he looks to climb up the Light-Heavyweight rankings while keeping his undefeated record intact. His mission, όπως πάντα, είναι να πάρει τον αντίπαλό του από εκεί από νωρίς.
“Ψάχνω να αναζητήσουν και να καταστρέψουν καθένας στο δρόμο μου,” Είπε Medzhid Bektemirov. “Εκπαιδευτής μου Ronnie Shields has me working on a variety of different combinations that I feel is making me a better fighter. I’m in the gym everyday working extremely hard on everything. Now that I’m ranked in the WBA, I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. My co-promoters Gary Shaw and Lou Savarese have assured me a big fight if I continue to win. I know Gbenga has a lot of power, αλλά αισθάνομαι γροθιές μου θα είναι πιο εκρηκτική και εγώ θα πρέπει να πυροβολεί για την νοκ-άουτ από το κουδούνι ανοίγματος. Είμαι έτοιμος να ρίξει βόμβες!”
“Λου και εγώ κάνουμε το καλύτερο δυνατό για να κρατήσει Β-52 απασχολημένος,” είπε Gary Shaw. “This will be his second fight in a little over a month and we want him on the fast track to a world title. Our goal is to move him up wisely against opponents that will prepare him for the next level. He keeps knocking everyone out so we have to keep him fighting as much as possible.”
“Είμαι πολύ χαρούμενος που ο Gary Shaw ήταν σε θέση να πάρουν Β-52 σε αυτήν την κάρτα,” είπε Lou Savarese. “Bektemirov is thrilled to be fighting so soon after a spectacular performance in his last fight which took place last month. I like what Ronnie Shields is doing with him. He’s improving with each fight and that’s what Gary and I are looking for. We want B-52 ready for the next level.”
