The WBO world champion from Ukraine was swiftly knocked out.

On February 4, at the small stage of the sports complex Madison Square Garden (New York, USA), American Kishon Davis (12-0, 8 KOs) will step into the ring as a clear favorite against the WBO world champion, Ukrainian lightweight Denis Berinchik (19-0, 9 KOs), as reported by Sports.kz with reference to Vringe.com.

In an interview with Sean Zittel, the contender indicated that he does not consider the champion a genuinely dangerous opponent: “I will knock him out in the first round. These guys just run into my punches. When will I fight Teofimo Lopez? I have no idea... I’m tired of chasing them. That’s it, I’ve paved my own path. I’ve already convinced all of you (referring to the media - note vRINGe). So I will follow my own way. If Teo happens to cross my path, he will be crushed just like the rest.”

Kishon addresses the media with a bold statement: “You have no idea how great I’m going to be. You just know that I will be great. But you don’t understand how great I plan to become. It’s all thanks to working with ‘BoMac’ (Brian McIntyre, known for his collaboration with Terence Crawford - note vRINGe). When I first turned pro, I didn’t know how to throw those body shots properly. He elevated my boxing. Took it to a new level. My trainers have added a lot to my arsenal.”
