The Russian boxing team is strong, and there is nothing unexpected in the maximum representation of Russians in the semi-finals of the World Championship, Eduard Kravtsov, chairman of the coaching council of the Russian Boxing Federation, told Match TV.
The quarterfinal stage of the World Championship ended in Dubai on Wednesday. All 13 Russian boxers overcame this milestone, reaching the semi-finals and guaranteeing themselves medals.
“We should all be congratulated on our excellent performance so far.” For the first time in history, all members of the Russian national team reached the semi-finals of the Men’s World Championship. That is, everyone will return with medals. For me personally, this is no surprise, given the level of our team. We have a very balanced team, there are no weak weights lagging behind. Yes, some had more difficult battles. Let’s hope for successful performances in the semi-finals and, accordingly, in the finals,” Kravtsov told Match TV.
At the World Championships, the Russian team performs with national attributes. The tournament’s prize fund is $8.32 million. The boxer will receive $300,000 for victory, $150,000 for second place, $75,000 for third place, and $10,000 for fifth place. The distribution of this fee will be in the following ratio: 50% to the boxer, 25% to the coach, 25% to the national federation.

Legendary British boxer Lennox Lewis He expressed his opinion that Anthony Joshua is ready for a possible fight with Tyson Fury. The former absolute world champion believes Joshua should have another interim fight before such a mega fight.
“Did Joshua show off enough to beat Fury? With a performance like that, no. It won’t work against Tyson. But at least he got into a rhythm. This was his first fight with a new team, he’s still getting used to Usyk and his team,” Lewis explained.

Eddie Hearnsupporter Anthony JoshuaHe shared the British boxer’s plans for the near future.
“We are acting according to Turki Al El-Sheikh’s strategy. Joshua plans to fight in February or March and then hopefully fight Tyson Fury.”
The next fight was originally scheduled for February 14, but with the date only seven weeks away, it is important to evaluate Anthony’s fitness. Hearn explained that there are actually seven weeks left now: “The fight could be moved to mid or late March if necessary.”
“Rico Verhoeven? This name has been mentioned a few times before. We are considering various options. We need a fight that will prepare us to face Tyson Fury and the way he fights. There are enough offers right now,” Hearn added.
Let us remind you that Joshua previously won by knocking out Jake Paul in the sixth round.
Additionally, Verhoeven had previously officially vacated the Glory heavyweight championship belt.
