Chudinov's Promoter on Danny Jacobs Negotiations, More

By Alexey Sukachev

Well-known Russian promoter Vladimir Hryunov shared his thoughts on what’s going on in the middleweight division (specifically regarding the WBA) to Vesti.kz. Hryunov promotes WBA #1 and “interim” champion Dmitry Chudinov (14-0-2, 9 KOs), and wants to get his boxer into eventual fights with WBA 'regular' champion Daniel Jacobs (28-1, 25 KOs) and WBA 'super' champion Gennady Golovkin (30-0, 27 KOs)

Regarding Golovkin and his upcoming fight against Marco Antonio Rubio (59-6-1, 51 KOs) - “I guess Rubio’s motivation will be the biggest issue in the fight [for Golovkin]. Gennady should be prepared for an offensive-minded Rubio, who will come right at him. The Mexican will try to dictate how the fight is going on. However, I think Gennady will resolve this issue, handle Rubio superbly and defeat him. I predict it’ll be quite a lengthy fight, and Golovkin will not win up until rounds eight, nine or ten”.

On a proposed showdown between Chudinov and Jacobs - “We are presently in negotiations [with Team Jacobs]. Those negotiations are being very difficult”.
