“I have not yet received a contract and my previous contract with AMC Fight Nights has expired. Therefore, we will think about what to do now: join the struggle or go abroad and fight there. Of course, if they give me a good fee for the second defense, I will accept it. So far I don’t see a purpose. “It is better to fight abroad,” he said.
