Opetaja is not sure about a rematch with Briedis

IBF world heavyweight champion Jai Opetaya (23-0, 18 KOs) plans to return to the ring early next year, but he does not yet know the details of this performance. Recently, the Australian performed for the first time after more than a year break, winning ahead of schedule Jordan Thompson.

The official contender for the fight with Opetaia is Mairis Briedis, but the current International Boxing Federation champion doubts that such a fight will take place.

“I don’t know if Briedis will sign a contract. There are different scenarios possible, and I’m not ruling anything out after what I’ve experienced in recent months. I want to have another fight as soon as possible,” Opetaja said.
