“We were in the coach’s corner and he goes, ‘I don’t like that, those right hands are barely missing’. And then boom, there goes the right hand. Wow.”
After celebrating his victory, Muradov called out White and asked him for a follow on Instagram.
The victorious middleweight said: “I’m ready whenever for anyone.
“Even after one week, if my hand’s not broken, I’m ready.”
