After the fight, the Russian boxer commented on the result: “You know, it happened again. My coach and my team did a great job. But there was also an element of luck in it. We had several strategies, not just one, and we were ready. The opponent fought well, but one of the strategies worked. I thank my coach, I just am,” Beterbiev said.
