Russian middleweight Vadim Tukov told he was not surprised by the victory Nate Diaz in a boxing match with Jorge Masvidal .
On Sunday night in the United States, former UFC fighters Diaz and Masvidal had a boxing match, in which Diaz won by majority decision. Tukov ranks first among Russian middleweight boxers on the BoxRec portal.
“I am not against such fights, especially when it is really interesting from a sporting point of view. More attention to boxing as a sport can only have a positive impact! Nate Diaz has always been a good stand-up fighter in the UFC. And I know that he boxed a lot, fought with Andre Ward, so I am not surprised that it was Nate who won. Would I want a media fight like this with an MMA fighter? I probably would not mind, but a little later, when I will be more popular, more in the media. If this confrontation is interesting for me and for the audience, why not? – Tukov told .
