Ergashev and Izmailov will fight on August 10: prospectus statements

On August 10, in Detroit (USA), a boxing evening from promoter Dmitry Salita will be held, the main event of which will be 10-round fights between prospects Shokhzhakhon Ergashev (22-0, 19 KOs) and Ali Izmailov (8-0, 6 KOs).

30-year-old super lightweight (up to 63.5 kg) from Uzbekistan Ergashev will meet with a 100% puncher from Mexico
Angel Martinez (14-1-2, 14 KOs). This will be Shokhjakhon’s second fight in 2022, after defeating Argentina’s Luis Alberto Veron on points in 8 rounds in May.

“I am very happy to be back in the ring and training camp with Sugar Hill, learning and progressing day by day,” says Ergashev. “I am focused on every opponent and aiming for the world title. Regis Prograis, Josh Taylor, Jack Catterall… Who wants to be first? Let’s get in line, one by one.”

29-year-old native of the Russian Federation from light heavyweight (up to 79.4 kg) Izmailov will fight against an unbeaten colleague from the USA
Erica Murgui (14-0, 12 KOs). This year, Ali has already managed to delay two opponents – Israel Duffus (TKO 4) and Abraham Tebes (RTD 3).

“I am happy to fight an unbeaten boxer,” said Izmailov, for whom this will be the fifth fight in a row in the States. — He is a skilled and strong boxer, a good puncher. But that’s good, because I want to fight the best and show my superiority. An impressive victory will bring me closer to the world title. I want to show the public why I will soon win the light heavyweight crown.”
