Radivoke Kalajdzic is gearing up (oh, wait, scratch that, let’s just say he’s getting ready) to throw some leather at Sullivan Barrera on a fine Wednesday night courtesy of ProBox TV. After giving Mickey Ellison a tough time last year, Kalajdzic’s eyes are now locked on Barrera, with a shiny championship fight dangling in the future for whoever comes out on top.
Kalajdzic, trying to sound modest, tossed a few compliments Barrera’s way, acknowledging the guy’s not half bad at throwing punches. He’s pretty adamant that he’s not just twiddling his thumbs until the fight happens, understanding all too well the unpredictable charm of light heavyweight boxing where a surprise knockout is never off the table. Yet, he’s pretty confident he’ll be the one doing the surprising against Barrera, aiming to stir up some noise in the division once again.
Joining the ProBox TV bandwagon in 2023, Kalajdzic has managed to wiggle his way back into the world ratings and is now eyeing a bout with the 175 champ, Dmitry Bivol. He’s playing it cool, saying he’s all in on the Barrera fight for now, but we all know the big prize he’s after. Last year, a fight with Bivol was almost a go, but apparently, Bivol opted for what Kalajdzic suggests was a less challenging opponent. No worries, according to Kalajdzic, that fight will happen one way or another after he showcases his skills against Barrera.
