Russian promoters Vitaly Supichenko and Kirill Pchelnikov unified their efforts to produce a nice-packed night of boxing at the Nazran Palace of Sports in Nazran, Russia, with an assistance of Ingush president Yunus-Beck Yevkurov. There were eight fights with two WBC Baltic titles at stake.
In the main event, local featherweight hero Ayup Arsaev (12-0, 7 KOs) scored a convincing shutout win over Uzbek Farhod Oripov (10-7-1, 6 KOs) over ten rounds to retain his regalia. Scores were identical across the boards – 100-90. Russian Karen Tevosyan (19-3-3, 10 KOs) crushed Hurshid Madaminov (6-8, 2 KOs) in three to get a vacant WBC Baltic light welterweight belt. Also, WBC #9 Roman Simakov (18-1-1, 8 KOs) continued his ring dominance with a shutout victory over ultra-durable Belarussian Konstantin Makhankov (16-23, 6 KOs).
