This 10-round fight will headline the IBA Night of Champions tournament, which will take place on February 16 in Dushanbe, Tajikistan.
“We purposely prepared for this fight,” Soltan Migitinov told the press service of the Russian Boxing Federation. – We know our opponent very well, we have met with him more than once. I think we approached the fight wisely, but the ring will show everything. I think this confrontation is fundamental, rather, for him. We are winning 2-1. And we understand perfectly that Alfonso is also preparing for this encounter with a desire for revenge. But the current champion is Sharabutdin Ataev. He needs to continue to demonstrate his leadership. But, in my opinion, Sharabutdin Ataev is better than Loren Alfonso.
We remind you that the winner of this confrontation will receive 350 thousand dollars and the loser will receive 150 thousand dollars.
