The long-suffering fight between the IBF world heavyweight champion (up to 90.7 kg) between the current title holder Mairis Briedis (28-1, 20 KOs) from Latvia and the mandatory challenger Australian Jay Opetaya (21-0, 17 KOs) received a new , for the third date.
According to the latest data, the meeting is now scheduled for July 2. At the same time, the venue remains unchanged – Broadbeach, a suburb of the Gold Coast, Australia.
Recall that the fight was originally scheduled for April 6, but did not take place due to a positive test for coronavirus from the champion. The fight was postponed to May 11, but it didn’t work on the second attempt either – the applicant was injured.
At the end of February, Briedis dressed as Super Mario treated Okoli with fast food: photos, videos, quotes.
