Earlier, Ilic, in an interview with , said that Pravda Boxing did not pay him the full amount for the boxing match against Magomed Ismailov on October 7, 2022. Ilic lost to Ismailov by decision in a short fight. spectacular and was criticized by the head of the organization. The fight was not included in official boxing statistics for MMA fighters. Ilic also spoke sharply about everything related to the organization of the fight, saying that they did not buy him a plane ticket and picked up gloves in which it was impossible to make a fist.
“We have fulfilled our contractual obligations to Ilic. It’s just strange that he would raise this issue a year later, right before his speech. He could have spoken out in the media much sooner or, as a last resort, sued us. I think he is trying to warm up this fight (as part of the upcoming RCC 17 tournament – approximately), because in this confrontation only Alexander Shlemenko is interesting.
My full answer, where I will argue the facts, will be at the Pravda Boxing press conference on December 21, on the eve of our tournament. We are open to dialogue and ready to answer any questions from Ilic in Moscow, both privately and in the presence of the media. I would really like to look at his shameless eyes,” Tsopanov told .
