UBO champion in the first welterweight Nazri Rahimov shared his opinion about the fight between Denis Berinchik and Emanuel Navarrete, at the stake of which will be the vacant WBO belt in the lightweight division.
Earlier it became known that the bout between the Ukrainian and the Mexican will take place on May 18 in San Diego, California, USA.
"Denis finally waited for his opportunity to box for the belt of the world champion. He's been a contender for a long time, but there was no way he was going to come out for this fight. The Mexican is a very tough boxer, but I think that of all possible opponents Navarrete is stylistically the most convenient for Denis. May 18 in San Diego will be hell, and in a very close fight, the world title will still go to Ukraine," - said Rahimov.
