– I come to all competitions for gold. These are no exception. The Women’s World Cup is the first major serious competition for me. We can say that we entered the top three, and that’s already good. But I will come back for the gold.
— Are you satisfied that the women’s team manages to participate in such forums?
“It’s a big step for us that we can play under our flag and with our anthem. It’s an additional responsibility, but we are very happy. I hope other sports will follow the example of the federation of boxing and will not discredit the Russians.
– Are you sure about our girls in the final?
I don’t doubt them for a second. Nastya shows a very high level of boxing at the age of 18. He’s a great guy. Encourage the girls! And Natasha is my neighbor. We live together from collection to collection. I hope everything will go well for her. From the team is the closest person. Team sister. I’m very worried, I’m in pain. Let’s cut the votes. I think we will have two gold medals.
– Where does this feature of the Russian national team in skirts come from?
– Personally, I like this innovation from the Russian Boxing Federation. Not so long ago, we were given equipment, blue and red. Men’s and women’s boxing is no different. At least leave the equipment. This is such a cool innovation. I like! In terms of practicality, it’s better than men’s shorts. It doesn’t interfere in the battle,” Pyatak said on .
Watch the final bouts of Sychugova and Demurchyan live on on March 25 from 4:20 p.m. Moscow time.
