Лос-Анджэлес (Чэрвеня 16, 2025) - Often avoided Russian super middleweight Petr “The Surgeon” Khamukov (13-0, 6 КО) will headline “LA Friday Night Fights”, presented by Paco Presents and Golden Boy Promotions, against David “Dynamite” Stevens (14-2, 10 КО) this week in Long Beach, Каліфорнія.


Khamukov faces Stevens, who was a standout amateur boxer out of Pennsylvania, у галоўнай падзеі 10-раўндавым. “LA Friday Night Fights” will be streamed live this Friday on DAZN from Thunder Studios.


A promotional free agent who now resides in Woodland Hills (ТАКОЙ ЯК), Khamukov had 350 аматарскія матчы, represented Russia in the 2016 Алімпійскія гульні, and he was the only Russian to qualify for the same Olympics in two weights classes (middleweight and light heavyweight). He captured gold medals at the 2015 European Championships and 2016 Russian National Championships.


Khamukov, 33, is excited to be fighting again, never mind headlining, because he has had a difficult time securing fights prior to recently signing a managerial contract with 3 Point Management (3 PM). Khamukov’s last fight was 13 месяцаў таму, when he knocked out Esau Herrera de la Cruz (21-16-1) у трэцім раўндзе.


“It was a real challenge, both physically and mentally,” Khamukov spoke about his absence from the ring. “As they say, the darkest night is followed by the brightest dawn. That time away helped me reset, reflect, and come back even stronger. Sometimes those moments are necessary to build true resilience. You have to ask fighters why they have avoided me. I’ve always been ready to fight but they weren’t. Maybe the risk just didn’t justify the reward? Fear of losing can be a powerful force. Let them run, I’m not chasing anyone. I’m focused on my own path.


“It’s a huge honor and a big responsibility to be headlining this Friday night in Long Beach. A main event, worthy opponent, and a team that’s worked incredibly hard to get us here. Now it’s time to do what I do best: step into the ring and prove myself. Fighting on DAZN is a launchpad to a whole new level. Millions of eyes, a bigger stage and new doors that could open for me after a strong performance. One thing will stay the same: moving forward with dignity and respect for the sport, my opponent and myself.”


In his most recent fight last November in Las Vegas, the 24-year-old Stevens lost a 12-round split decision to Bektemir Melikuziev (14-1, 10 КО). Stevens’ most impressive performance to date was an 8-round stoppage of then 14-0 Sean Hemphill in 2023.


“My opponent is a strong, experienced fighter, Няма сумненняў,” Khamukov said. “I respect that, but I didn’t just start boxing yesterday, або. I’ve prepared thoroughly – physically, разумова, tactically. The rest will be shown in the ring. Я не шмат казаць, Я, and that’s what professionalism is about.


“The biggest change in training camp has been volume. We’ve increased endurance work and focused on managing pace and energy. At my core, I’m still the same…. агрэсіўны, technical, and hungry for victory.


Khamukov is the latest member of 3 Point Management’ (3 PM) stable of gifted boxers including WBA & WBO Cruiserweight World Champion/Ring Magazine No. 1 rated Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramirez (47-1, 30 КО), former WBC World Light Heavyweight Champion/WBC No. 3 rated Oleksandr “Nails” Gvozdyk (20-2, 16 КО), world super flyweight title challenger/WBO No. 1 rated John “Scrappy” Ramirez (14-1, 9 КО), WBA #6 rated super middleweight Darius “DFG” Fulgham (14-1, 12 КО), former WBA Inter-Continental Light Heavyweight Champion Kareem “Supreme” Hackett (12-1, 6 КО) and German junior welterweight Simon “Saucy” Vollmer (7-0, 3 КО).

“I can deal with anybody in my division. I want to fight Ці Селбі (IBF featherweight world champion), or any of the world champions, but none will fight me. I really want Гэры Расэл (WBC champion); Я тут, Гэры. It’ll be target practice for me.”

DAVID “EL BANDERA ROJA” BENAVIDEZ STRIVING FOR GREATNESS GETS RIGHT BACK IN THE GYM

LONG BEACH, Каліфорніі (Ліпеня 7, 2016) – Just two days after dominating previously undefeated Francy Ntetu (16-1, 3 КО) on Premier Boxing Champions’ Чэрвеня 25й CBS card at New York’s Barclay’s Center, “Чырвоны сцяг,” Дэвід Бенавидес, was back at his home gym in Long Beach, preparing for his next bout. The rising star had no intention of taking time off, and jumped right into an intense training regimen that included sparring with Gilberto “Ляўшун” Рамірэс (34-0, 24KO), who was set to make his pay-per-view debut later in the month, but was sidelined this week with an injury.
“My last fight was hard, but I learned a lot,” stated Benavidez regarding his bout with previously unbeaten Canadian Ntetu. “It was great experience, getting rounds in.”
With only one exception, a six round fight that went the distance in 2014, Benavidez hadn’t fought beyond the second round, knocking out opponent after opponent.
“I feel better and more experienced,” Benavidez continued. “I have confidence knowing I can go into deep waters and finish a fight if I have to. I’m learning how to pace myself when I need to during a round, and I know that those later rounds made me a better fighter.”
As Benavidez prepares for his next fight, he’s focused completely on improving himself.
“I didn’t mind getting right back to the gym,” said Benavidez. “This is my lifestyle now. I just want to train. I want to look at what I did wrong in my last fight and fix it. I don’t want to get rusty in between fights. When I’m not physically training, I’m thinking about mistakes I made in fights, techniques that can be improved. I want to get better each fight, and I’m consumed by that.”
“It’s this commitment to success and improvement that sets David apart from other young men his age, and other fighters,” сказаў Хасэ Бенавидес, Sr., David’s father and head trainer. “This is what makes him different, and this is why he’s going to be the best.”
