On July 12, in Serpukhov, near Moscow, two-time world champion and 2020 Olympics finalist Gadzhimagomedov defeated China’s Zhang Zhaoxin by fourth-round technical knockout to win the vacant WBA bridgeweight world title. After the fight, Kravtsov told that Gadzhimagomedov’s next fight could take place in October, and that second-ranked German Leon Hart is considered as an opponent.
“We are considering the possibility of moving to heavy weights over a period of time so that the Muslim becomes stronger and gains muscle mass. Then this option will work for us. If this does not happen, then there is an opportunity to go down to the first heavy weight. In fact, this is his native weight, which suits him,” Kravtsov told .
