British promoter Frank Warren commented on the victory of the Ukrainian Denis Berinchyk (17-0, 9 KOs) over the Frenchman Ivan Mendy (47-6-1, 22 KOs) and officially announced the start of cooperation with the Ukrainian.
“I am glad that Berinchyk won the championship title. He was out of the ring for a year. Therefore, it is difficult to understand what he went through, given the war in his country. I don't think he had many sparring partners. Probably, it is this fact that explains why the fight turned out to be not very exciting.
But Denis showed all his best qualities, and I am glad that we will work with him to bring him to the fight for the world title next year, ”BoxingScene quotes Warren.
Recall that on December 3 in London Berinchyk confidently won Mendy by the decision of the judges.
