Lerena outboxed Ukrainian Kucher
A rather small (185 cm) south-hander from South Africa will look like a dwarf next to a much larger (202 cm tall and 208 cm rich) ex-challenger Vakh, who weighed almost 118 kg in his last fight on February 19, when he flew into Arslanbek Makhmudov by knockout in 6 -th round.
In February 2020, Hopkins’ record stood: Lerena destroyed “grandfather” Arslan. The promoter of the South African promotes him as “a breath of fresh air, Tyson style.”
