russian boxer Dmitry Dvali said he was unhappy with his performance in the World Cup quarter-finals, despite the win.
On Wednesday in Tashkent, Dvali defeated Sanjay Seydakmatov of Kyrgyzstan by split decision and reached the semifinals of the World Championship in the weight class up to 54 kg, securing at least a bronze medal. On May 12, Dvali will face Oybek Zhuraev of Uzbekistan to reach the final.
— There were a lot of mistakes during the fight and the opponent turned out to be very serious. I underestimated him a bit, but I still tuned in like a worthy opponent. I did not expect this kind of pressure. And during the fight, I was deducted a point – as if I walked dangerously head first. But look at my face, there’s nothing.
I showed character, will, I will continue to work and recover, aim for gold. I won by split decision and, as they say, winners aren’t judged, but I’d like to perform better. Stronger opponents are ahead, – correspondent quotes Dvali as saying.
The Tashkent World Championship is broadcast in full on and Match! Fighter”.
