Alexandros Nikolaidis on Sportish: “I’ll stop if my son asks me”

His return to the ring after a long absence was dreamy as he knocked Ball out and saw everyone in the Mets adore him.

The “bad boy” of Greek boxing, Alexandros Nikolaidis, returned at the age of 39 more prepared and determined than ever and spoke to Sportish and Valia Pilianidis about the fight that made it unique.

“It was unique, I really felt like I was returning to my second home. That’s how I felt out there. I missed all of this so much. I felt the love of people 100% and it fulfilled me too. I am proud and grateful because love is real and what I receive is my strength.

It might seem strange to some that I was going to return to the ring at 39, but I am returning home. It is my house I don’t know how many more years I’ll do it, but I’ll live it and as long as this world supports me, I’ll keep going. “.

He changed opponents three times, but it didn’t matter to Nikolaidis, who sparkled in his eyes and ideally closed the night of his return.

“I was very trained and I didn’t care who I went up against. He was the third opponent they switched, but I didn’t care because I had very good training. Whoever they brought me was me was trained and that was shown in the rounds. It’s always a perfect feeling to blow someone away. ”

What will be the next challenge and whether he is considering withdrawing from the ring? His answer is clear and disarming.

“I don’t know what the next challenge will be. I am open to suggestions, no matter what suggestions are made to me. I will stop if my son asks me to. Now he wants me to keep playing, he wants more. The Sieg is clearly dedicated to the two sons, which is a daily source of inspiration for me “.
