Professional boxer, ex-world champion Murat Gassiev has noted that it is important for him to return to the ring as soon as possible, because the pause was too long, reports the information site Osnova.News, citing the channel “Behind The Gloves “.
“I need fights, and I really want to return as soon as possible. Nine months without fights is a very long time,” said Gassiev.
The boxer has noted that he has no idea who will be his rival during the fight scheduled for June.
“Now the most important thing is to get into the best shape, so I’m focused on that and I’m ready to meet with any opponent. As always,” said Gassiev.
It should be reminded, that July 21 in Moscow took place the final of the World Boxing Super Series, in which Murat Gassiev and Alexander Usyk were fighting for the title of absolute world champion in the first heavyweight championship. The Ossetian athlete was defeated. After that, it took him time to recover from injuries.
