„This was a very tough match for me. I didn`t have much time to prepare. I`m happy to be back, because I had a serious injury. There was no way I was going to lose here in front of my home crowd in Varna and my team. This motivated me even more. “
“I knew before the fight that I shouldn`t back down. With the rounds advancing I felt I was closing the distance better. He is very long and rangy and easily scored with his knees. My cut was not that bad and I managed to push forward. His style was a difficult one for me”
“I want to dedicate this title to all the people who help me and support me. The fight night was one of the best shows I have participated in. The fighters are of high level and I would like to thank the hosts for the provided opportunity to showcase my skills”
