Rival Vyacheslav Datsik exhibition on the american boxer Kevin Johnson is not going to leave Russia in the context of a statement by the US State Department on the need for American citizens to leave the country, the Russian promoter told Vladimir Khryunov .
The fight between Johnson and Datsik will take place on Friday in Moscow. US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken commented Thursday on the arrest in Russia of US Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reporter Evan Gershkovich. The statement states, among other things, that “US citizens living or traveling in Russia should leave the country immediately.”
– Kevin has no intention of running away and is not afraid of anything?
Kevin Johnson is Russian. He plans to stay in Russia and marry a Russian girl, Olga. She is from Chekhov. He wants to make an offer tomorrow in the ring, Khryunov told
Johnson, 43, has 35 wins, 21 losses and two draws in the professional ring. Since 2019, the American has had 11 fights in which he has won. Throughout his career Johnson has boxed with Vitali Klitschko, Tyson Fury, Anthony Joshua, Andy Ruiz, Kubrat Pulev, Derek Chisora and many more. Datsik knocked out Brazilian Geronimo “Mondragon” dos Santos last Saturday in the first round of the Ural FC 2 tournament in Samara.
