Ukrainian cruiserweight Ismail Sillah (25-5, 19 KOs) after losing to Russian Alexei Papin (9-0, 8 KOs) by KO in the first round on November 27 in Moskow, admitted through his Instagram that his physical condition is no longer the best, and also hinted that he could finish his career.
"Hello everyone! I want to say that I'm all right. I'm in good physical condition, my health is fine. Of course, this happens. It's been a tough loss. I understand all this adequately. My form is not the same, the condition is not right. I spent 25 years in boxing. I spent more than 350 fights. This all affects. In general, everything is in order. I wanna thanks everyone for your support. I understand that I'm not 20 years old any more, everything is not perfect at all. I know what needs to do and what's next!” Sillah wrote.
