“I believe that Beterbiev was leading the fight before the knockout. Let's see how he will oppose Mang Fanlung early next year. Beterbiev is the best Russian boxer at the moment.

I’m lucky that I’ve never opposed mine in my life, ”Tszyu quotes the“ Championship ”.

On the night of October 19, Arthur Beterbiev knocked out Alexander Gvozdik and won two light heavyweight titles - IBF and WBC.
