Russian boxer Edgar Ghukasyan on Monday, December 6, announced his intention to return the title of champion of the World Boxing Association (WBA) Asia South in a rematch with Argentinean Ricardo Villalba.
“There is not enough belt (of the WBA Asia South champion – Ed.), There is not enough tasty food, communication with lovely ladies, but the game is worth the candle. They drove it, ”REN TV quoted Ghukasyan as saying.
It is noted that the Russian has already won this champion title, but on July 23 he lost it in a duel with Villalba. Then the Russian approached the opponent and accidentally hit the head of the Argentine. The referee interpreted this incident as a prohibited strike, Ghukasyan was disqualified.
“He pissed me off, and I followed his lead. I gave him a chance, and he took advantage of it, ”said the Russian athlete.
Olympic medalist boxer Mikhail Aloyan believes that, most likely, Ghukasyan’s rival will try to outplay the Russian boxer mentally.
“I think he is preparing well for this fight, and judging by the last fight, he will try to piss off Edgar Ghukasyan, that is, to play on his temperament. This will be one of his hooks. Here Edgar needs not to fall for it, ”Aloyan said.
The fight-revenge between the Russian and the Argentine will take place within the framework of the professional boxing evening “Storm on the Volga”, which will take place in Samara on December 17 at the sports and concert complex “Sports Palace”.
In addition to Gukasyan and Viyalba, the bronze medalist of the World Championship and the bronze medalist of the European Championship Maxim Babanin and Tony “Tiger” Tes, as well as fist fighter Maxim Shcherbakov, nicknamed Ax, and Denis Vildanov, known as Big Dad, will compete in the ring this evening.
