Headlining a Milanese card, Friday. Over a year after being dealt his first pro defeat by Tommy McCarthy, the young hard-hitting Italian prospect looks to rebound versus a Latvian southpaw close to a decade his senior. Grišunins fought damn near everybody worth a damn in Europe in the amateurs (Egor Mekhontsev, Oleksandr Gvozdyk, Artur Beterbiev, Oleksandr Usyk, Badou Jack, and Vladimir Shishkin among the names recently embellished further by professional success) - but usually in losing efforts, although he maintained better than a .500 record overall in the simonpures. He fared much worse in WSB, however, drawing once and losing several without a single win - and the fact that he swapped knockdowns with Czech journeymen Václav Pejsar in his penultimate bout prior to now suggests Turchi ought to be able to smash through him. Stranger things happen, though.

Pejsar is a journeyman, still relatively high ranked, from top #100 and he really hits hard. Not sure that Turchi is able crack like Pejsar. He is just A side guy in this one. That's it. 27 y.o vs 36 y.o with long mileage. Looks that Turchi will won this one.
