Wach:I train normally and wait for a fight

Mariusz Wach (33-3, 17 KO) published on Twitter a statement regarding his duel at the National Boxing Gala, which was in doubt after the Pole's rival Eric Molina (26-5, 19 KO) was suspended from the British anti-doping agency .

"I received a lot of requests to comment on the fight against Molina. I am confused because I get different information from each side, I train normally and wait for the fight. Tomorrow I am going to Warsaw, I will know everything until the conference." - he wrote "Wiking".

Theoretically, there is still a chance that Wacha and Molina will eventually come to a clash. An American air ticket to Poland is re-scheduled for Wednesday.

 

Efe Ajagba/Dell Long(5/2) on May 26th.

 

I think he was stopped once or twice in his whole amateur career.

 

No, he doesn't have a weak chin, just look at his partial amateur record:

Wilder or Povetkin is next by the looks of it....

 

Full amateur record of Ivan Dychko: 181 wins and 18 loses. I don't see a weak chin here. He has fought the biggest hitters in the game in his amateur career. He fought Omarov, fought Majidov 4 times and lost by stoppage just once and won 2 fights out of their 4 meetings. Also fought your usual huge punchers like Bakhodyr Zhololov, Efe Ajagba, Savon and beat them all. Just one stoppage loss out of 105 fights, if that isn't impressive than what is?!

Ruslan Fayfer back on June 9th

Jai Opetaia/Kurtis Pegoraro(11/3) on June 29th

Wach/Molina fight will not happen with another opponent taking place of Molina this coming weekend:

- This is not a comfortable situation for me, I felt like we will have a fight - said Mariusz Wach, commenting on the information about the doping suspension of Erik Molina. The fighters of these boxers were to take place during the Friday National Boxing Gala, but most likely the rival of the Pole will be another competitor.


Silver medalist of the Olympics is training with Shumenov in Astana


Undefeated British heavyweight Joseph Joyce (4-0, 4KO) trains in the same team as the Kazakhstani ex-world champion in two categories Beibut Shumenov (17-2, 11KO).

Boxers work in Astana under the leadership of Cuban specialist Ismael Salas. The Briton is the silver medalist of the 2016 Olympics, the bronze medalist of the World Cup 2015 and the winner of the European Games-2015.

On June 7 in the capital of Kazakhstan, Shumenov will fight for the vacant title of "regular" WBA world champion in the first heavyweight with Hizni Altunka (30-1, 17KO), who lives in Germany.

The next fight of Joyce will take place a week later, June 15 in London. His opponent is still unknown.
