“Sergei Bogachuk’s promoter told about plans for the nearest duel”, – WRITE: Sport.ua
Earlier, the World Boxing Council decided that a Ukrainian should go to the ring against the American Virginiala Ortis, but he is not going to agree to battle with Bogachuk. Leffler plans to organize a match with the Russian world champion by IBF Bakhram Murtazaliyev (23-0, 17 KO).
“Honestly, this is the fight that should be organized in the near future. I already talked with the bakhram representatives, they agreed to battle with the Ukrainian. Bogachuk is ready for it. Everything is obvious. This confrontation will claim the title of “match of the year”.
Ortis does not want to fight with us. He is not delighted with this idea. The American team plans to find an easier opponent. Ortis does not want a heavy battle at the moment, ”Leffler said.
The last Bogachuk went to the ring in December last year, when he stopped the British boxer Ishmael Davis (RTD 6).
