Fight in the limit of the first middle weight (up to 69.9 kg) between the Russian owner WBO International title Magomed Kurbanov (22-0, 13 KOs) and ex-world champion Brazilian Patrick Teixeira (31-2, 22 KOs) received a new (already third) date – July 9 in Yekaterinburg (RF).
The fight was supposed to take place in December last year, but was canceled at the last moment due to the Russian’s health problems. The fight was supposed to take place in March, but the event was canceled due to sanctions – the leading boxing organizations decided to remove athletes from Russia from title fights until the Russian Federation withdraws its troops from the territory of independent Ukraine.
Apparently, Kurbanov vs Teixeira will not be a title fight. In any case, the Brazilian’s market value has deteriorated significantly after the sensational loss to the Mexican gatekeeper
Semi Valenzuela.
The fight for the low-prestigious IBO welterweight title (up to 66.7 kg) between the Olympic champion of Kazakhstan Daniyar Yeleussinov (11-0, 6 KOs) and Ukrainian Ivan Golub (20-1, 15 KOs) will not take place on June 25, as expected earlier and a little later. A new date for the show has not yet been announced.
The thing is that the event was supposed to be held as an opening act for the infamous US heavyweight Jarrell Miller (23-0-1, 20 KOs) on streaming Triller, but they clearly have serious financial problems. Earlier it was reported that Kovalev was not paid for the fight with Pulev.
Two-time Olympic medalist from Kazakhstan heavyweight (over 90.7 kg) Ivan Dychko (11-0, 11 KOs) will stop beating the Russians – after two victories in a row over representatives of the Russian Federation Denis Bakhtov and Alexander Ustinov, he will measure his strength with the Argentine journiman
Kevin Nicholas Espindola (7-3, 2 KOs). The fight will take place on June 23 in Buenos Aires (Argentina).
The same Miller will perform in the same show – the doping recidivist from the USA has a date, a place and an opponent. You will be surprised.
