Lobov agrees to fight Berinchyk on bare fists

Russian-Irish MMA fighter Artem Lobov accepted the challenge of the Ukrainian boxer Denis Berinchyk.

Yesterday Berinchyk defended his WBO international lightweight title by knocking out Chilean Jose Sanchez in the third round. After the fight, the Ukrainian put on a T-shirt with the image of the "Russian Hammer" and the inscription: "Lobov, let's make a fight!"

“I would like to challenge Artem Lobov to a duel on bare fists. Before I only fought in Donbass,” Berinchyk said in a post-fight interview.

Lobov did not delay with the answer: “Come on. Take off the pillows from your hands, and let's make a real swing,” Artem wrote in Instagram Stories, noting the account of the Mahatch FC fist fighting league.

Lobov had three fights on bare fists, scoring two victories and suffering one defeat.
