He's been fighting in the US since his debut in 2014, thats 4 years. The only two fights ive seen him in where the Soliman fight and the Tureano Johnson fight. He fought twice in 2016, twice in 2017, and once in 2018. His social media footprint is nonexistence. Just check his instagram, he has very little activity. I mean for Christsakes you are the number 1 contender to the man at 160, the number 1 p4p fighter according to many publications. MAKE SOME NOISE. Finally, his promoter, Lou Dibella is doing something about it. But seriously, this guy NEEDS to be going to fights, why wasnt he at the GGG Vanes fight??? That would have been massive exposure for him, he could have taken interviews left and right saying "im right here GGG, dont duck me like they ducked you" or "we are both ex soviet guys lets go to war" Say what you want about Loeffler but I think he did an amazing job with GGG. GGG is known by millions, is a brand ambassador, has sponsorships, etc. Dchenko is 32 years old and is literally wasting away fighting once or twice a year. Whereas when GGG was 32 he was fighting Rubio and Geale, getting ratings and selling out local arenas. Imagine if D chenko tried to headline an event right now, he'd be lucky to get 1000 in attendance. I like D chenko and I want to see him get more action. Its a shame how terribly promoted he is. He's mandatory to a strap but he literally has ZERO name recognition. He should be calling out Charlo/Murata/BJS/Lemiuex/Sullivan. Get a fight, let them fans see you fight man and not be some obscure undercard fighter. His last fight wasnt even televised. It would be a shame to see GGG vacate the title (he would get some heat for sure but like Canelo hes above the belts now). If GGG vacates the IBF it would actually hurt D chenko worse as he would have to fight Charlo for the vacant title.
DiBella is a sham promoter, the strings are pulled by Haymon who functions as a manager and a promoter at the same time that's why Top Rank filed that lawsuit that Haymon had to settle.
You either say yes or you say no to Big Al when he summons you to his office after hours, the sky's the limit for those that play ball, for those that don't, however, the future isn't quite so rosy. It is what it is, it is what it isn't. This content is protected
