Mchunu: I’m Not Sure I Want Russian Citizenship Read More

In an exclusive interview with Telecomasia.net, South African boxer Thabiso Mchunu stated that he does not plan to get Russian citizenship, despite having fought in the country three times.

I'm still not sure because I'm married and I have a home. We live comfortably, and I don’t want to change that. Russia pushes me to show the best I can do. Every fight in Russia is a challenge for me. Ideally, I should box more often in Russia because I win when I compete here.

Recall that Thabiso Mchunu defeated Denis Lebedev in 2019 and triumphed over Evgeny Tishchenko in 2021. He is now set to fight Muslim Gadzhimagomedov, with a record of 23 wins and seven losses.
