Ustinov not going to end career

Russian heavyweight Alexander Ustinov told that he does not think about retiring. Last week in Germany Ustinov lost a unanimous decision to Manuel Charra in the fight for the vacant WBA Regular title. For 40-year-old Russian, this defeat was the second in his professional career with 34 victories.

Earlier Ustinov's promoter Vladimir Khryunov declared that Ustinov could hold his next fight in the UK in May against former champion Tyson Fury.

"I do not think about the retirement, on the contrary, sports anger has appeared in me, and I want to show that it was an accident. As for the next fight my promoter is doing everything to organize it. It was already said that the fight with Fury is possible in May. I'll be happy if it happens,"Ustinov said.

The boxer explained what prevented him from demonstrating his boxing in the battle with Charr: "At the beginning of the fight everything was good, but then perhaps I incorrectly calculated my physical conditions. It might have been necessary to turn on the "overdrive" mode to finish everything in the first rounds. In general, the battle did not turn out good for me," Ustinov said.

"During the fight, I had a temperature of 38.5 and the temperature still does not let go, yes, it's smaller, but ... Unfortunately, the luck was not on my side for a week, but we had to box with this condition. If the fight had been a week earlier, it would have been great. We had good and a proper camp," added Ustinov.
