Former British boxer WBC cruiserweight champion Tony Belew expressed concern about the development of dementia. The 40-year-old opened up about how many blows he thinks he’s taken to the head in his career.
– It is estimated that a boxer inflicts 50,000 blows to the head a year in training and in combat. So I beat people and got punched in the face for 22 years.
The only thing I was good at, luckily for me, was math. I received an average of 1.1 million blows to the head. We still need to know if I retired from boxing in time, because if I suddenly start talking badly during this show or start eating through a straw, then we have a problem! – said the boxer on the air of his podcast “Tony Bellew is angry”.
Live broadcasts of boxing evenings at tournaments in 2023 take place on the federal channel and thematic channels of the holding, as well as on the sites matchtv.ru and sportbox.ru.
