“We used to spar with Sergei very often. I worked with him a lot before the Owens fight and after. We stopped training together around 2019, or maybe 2020. Bogachuk and I have done thousands of rounds, but that’s in the past.
Now we represent different teams. I'm honored to have played so many rounds with him. He is a fighter who throws a lot of punches. I understand that Sergey can now be much better, but I still see the same aggressive style. My task is to show the difference in class between us,” Boxing Social quotes the American as saying.
