Director Pavel Vitruk Alexander Skaredin considers it inappropriate to give this opportunity Oleg Borisov rematch with the ACA bantamweight champion.
Vitruk knocked out Borisov in the fourth round in mid-April and won the ASA belt. Vitruk, 34, has 19 wins, six losses and one draw. Borisov, 39, has 26 wins, seven losses and one draw.
— Pasha is now in a training camp in Altai and is slowly getting involved in the training process. We are communicating with ASA regarding the next fight. The contender is currently unknown, but management told us that Vitruk can secure the final pair in the Bantamweight Grand Prix. Magomed Bibulatov and Mehdi Baidulaev will face each other in the deciding match. Pasha himself does not want to sit idly by, but wants to fight more often. He plows! A second and very big wind has opened in his career. In light of that, a meeting, basically, of two ACA belts is a great story.
As for the rematch with Oleg Borisov… We do not choose opponents, they are designated by the league, according to its logic of evolution of the divisions. If there is a direct offer from the league to meet with Borisov, we will naturally not reject it. But based on ASA sporting principles, I don’t think they will avenge a man after such a defeat in a title fight. It would be nice if there was a controversial decision. In my opinion, Oleg Borisov should have 1-2 good fights with the desired result, and the league will consider Borisov as a contender again.
If you look at the ASA ranking, Oleg Borisov occupies the first line, but we discussed his candidacy. Next come Magomed Bibulatov, Rustam Kerimov, Josiel Silva and Mehdi Baidulaev. Most likely, Rustam Kerimov moves to a different weight. And according to sporting logic, there are three candidates left: Bibulatov, Silva and Baidulaev. In general, we are waiting for news,” Skaradin told .
