Hearn continues to believe in Babich

Eddie Hearn hopes that Alain Babich (11-1, 10 KOs) will quickly return to the ring after losing to Lukash Ruzhansky (15-0, 14 KOs) and declares that he wants to continue working with a boxer from Croatia. The head of Matchroom Boxing organized most of the Savage's professional fights.

“When I found out that Babich lost by knockout, I felt sorry for him. I really like him, he has charisma and a big heart to fight. I'm sure he'll come back and do it in style. I keep my fists so that Babich recovers quickly. I was surprised by the result, but this is boxing. Babich is a fighter, he will definitely not give up. He will always be welcome at Matchroom nights,” Hearn said.

Matchroom tried to organize a fight between Babich and Ruzhansky in the UK, but ultimately lost the tender to Polish KnockOut Promotions.
