Some important news has come at the last minute following an illness to one of the fighters on the undercard but a change has been made.
It happened a fighter who is fighting Vergil Ortiz next February.
Here’s what is happening per Turki Alalshikh on X:
“It was confirmed by doctors this evening that Israil Madrimov is suffering from acute bronchitis and has to withdraw from the Dec 21 fight with Bohachuk. British fighter Ishmael Davis will replace Madrimov who will now rest and recover for his scheduled fight on Feb 22 fight with Vergil Ortiz.”
Speedy recovery with a big fight indeed to repair and rest for in February.
Good news for the Usyk vs Fury 2 card on December 21st with such a quick turnaround producing the replacement opponent for that fight on the undercard.
Boxing is being more streamlined and professionalized at the highest level now, certainly more and more so, as the days go by.
Very good.
