Russian boxer Artyom Suslenkov is convinced that he psychologically broke his opponent during the fight in Serpukhov in the first round.
On Saturday in Serpoukhov, Suslenkov beat Belgian Bilal Laggun (26-4-2, KO 14) by technical knockout in the third round in a fight in the over 92 kg category. This fight took place as part of the Stakes League “Professional Boxing Evening”. IBA Champions Evening.
“I think I broke my opponent at the end of the first round. Psychologically, I realized that he was giving up and I started to improve. The coach said that you first have to feel the opponent, watch them and start working. I faced the task of the technical staff and I did everything they told me. If I had boxed the whole fight, it might have been better. Everyone wants to work differently. Some argue that you have to box every round, others want to win by knockout. Of course, it’s better to win by knockout – it’s beautiful and spectacular. I cannot say that today’s victory was easy, because the path to victory is very difficult, ”reports correspondent, reporting Suslenkov’s words.
The tournament on February 3 was broadcast live on the channel.
