Top Boxing Generation (TBG) and Swerve Combat will livestream twelve fights featuring world-class athletes from across the globe. In the main event, Nazri Rahimov (13-3 with 7 KOs) will battle Colombian Jorge Moya (15-4-1 with 4 KOs) for the WBC youth super lightweight title scheduled for 10 rounds. The event will take place Saturday, March 30 at 9 am eastern daylight time at Kyiv’s Stereo Plaza.
Boxing had been stopped for many months in Ukraine due to the Russian invasion. Now, officials have approved this event despite ongoing attacks in Kyiv, the nation’s capital. Last week, 29 missiles were intercepted before hitting Kyiv. Also, 88 missiles and 63 Shahed drones fell on the cities of Kharkiv, Dnipro, Lviv, Vinnytsia and Zaporizhzhia. Amid the adversity, promoter Vlad Eliseev is determined to help his fellow citizens get on with their lives, and the production is expected to be sold out and packed with fans and participants.
“The fighters who come to Ukraine from abroad are very brave, but also probably a bit crazy,” said Eliseev. “But what I can say is that Kyiv has a very good defense. I do feel safe, and I trust the air defense and soldiers of Ukraine. I think we all need to have belief in each other at this time. It is a big pain to all of us, but we have to continue to build the country in all aspects as best we can.”
