Berinchyk's trainer - about the fight with Navarrete: "I believe that the belt will come to Ukraine"

Egor Golub, trainer of Denis Berinchik, spoke out about his ward's upcoming fight with Emanuel Navarrete.

"Exactly. He's coming to our weight, not us coming to his. He's coming to the weight that Denis has spent his entire professional career at. Navarrete boxed at 55 kg, at 57 kg, at 59 kg. But 61 kg is not 59 kg. We respect him, but we are not afraid of him. As they say, the devil is not as bad as they make it out to be. We're confident in ourselves. We're confident in our abilities. I'm confident in Denis. And I'm sure of myself. I believe that everything will be fine. I believe that the belt will come to Ukraine. Denis deserves it.

Recall, the fight between Berinchik and Navarrete will be held on May 18. At stake will be the belt of the world champion in the lightweight version of the WBO.
