Former WBA and IBF world heavyweight champion Denis Lebedev did not single out a favorite in the duel between Magomed Ismailov and Alexander Shlemenko.
The fight is scheduled for December 3 in Yekaterinburg. Initially, the fighters were supposed to meet on August 26, but Ismailov failed to recover from the injury by this date.
– The chances of winning in such battles are always 50/50. Both are very experienced. But I am rooting for Sanya Shlemenko.
– Are you impressed by Ismailov’s boxing fights?
– Not exactly impressive – surprising. He’s pretty good at boxing. I noted Magomed in his first fight with Durodola. Percussion technique Ismailov is recruited quickly. A talented person is talented in everything. But still, he is still far from a professional boxer. As far as I know, he does not have a goal of becoming a professional. And at his level, he boxed very decently, ”Komsomolskaya Pravda quotes Lebedev as saying.
