Former world champion Krzysztof Wlodarczyk ready to hold a rematch with Grigory Drozd or to enter the ring against another Russian champion – Denis Lebedev. Coach Polish boxer Fedor Lapin told “Gazeta.ru” about the plans of his ward.
Over the weekend in Moscow Wlodarczyk, who owned the title of world champion by the World Boxing Council (WBC) in the category of up to 90 7 kg, lost on points Drozd. As part of this evening of boxing Lebedev defended the WBA championship belt in the same title by knocking out another ward Lapin Pole Paul Kolodzheya.
– The Russian organizers of the fight in Moscow said that the contract contained a clause to the possible revenge. Krzysztof himself wants to spend new battle with thrush, you talked to him about it?
– Yes, of course, wants. It may be a Drozd, maybe Denis Lebedev. Krzysztof wants to box for a world title.
– Before the battle you talked about the fact that it takes time to prepare a boxer to enter the ring at least two hours. Wlodarczyk them for you after the fight was not Paul Kolodzheya. Do this over some questions to the organizers?
– No, they were given a half hour. I have said that, at a minimum, requires a half hour. They gave them. Absolutely no complaints.
Just before did not have to settle for fighting his two boxers, one after another. There is not even the fact that I had only half an hour to prepare Wlodarczyk in the locker room. Just when we went to battle with Kolodzheem, Krzysztof was still in the hotel.
That is two hours he had spent there. We used to never did. If you go back in time, I would not have agreed to a two fight their boxers in one day. Even with such a break.
We have all the power, all his training was thrown on one fight. Because two of the fight for a coach – it’s too much. And guys feel that all the attention coach, and the whole team is not on you alone.
All championship fights before we dedicate one boxer, and it is very important to such fights. So the more we have of such an error will not do.
– If talk about the preparations for the new fight, what kind of things do not udavshiesya in the first fight should be prepared in the first place?
– From past battle have nothing to say about the techniques and tactics – not there at all boxing by Krzysztof just that we lay before the fight! Of course, we congratulate Thrush with a nice, comfortable win – he is world champion. But we look at ourselves.
Krzysztof this happened twice before: in the second fight with Steve Cunningham (defeat on points) and the first fight with Francisco Palacios (split decision victory judges). He’s just a “lock”, went to only one shot, without any of the front hand on the trunk of a job, out of work in the melee.
So fighting for the world title, especially with well-trained boxer, Grigory Drozd, can not be obtained. The most important thing in those two cases – a head.
– Then what will be the main work of the coach will be appointed if a rematch?
– Look at history: after the fight with Cunningham when Krzysztof lost the title of world champion under version IBF, he rose strongly. After that, he spent seven years is not lost, boxing with different opponents – and themselves and on the road.
After the first fight with Palacios, when he had problems, as now, a personal life, he went and won in Australia (Danny Green), and then – and a rematch with the Cuban.
He was raised, he was angry. In this battle, he was not evil, he thought that the fight will be much easier. And then the head refused, and it turned out how it happened.
But after such failures that he had, Krzysztof was always raised and showed his best boxing – on anger, on obstinacy. He is stubborn. I think it would be and now, in his next fights. Krzysztof 33 years old, he knows everything in boxing. Just in this battle he did not go. Here “guilt” and Drozd, choose the right tactics, but we have been preparing for it.
– eight months – the normal time for such training? Or would like to have a rematch as soon as possible?
– eight months – the normal period for which you can decide when it is best to make a fight. After all, not all, not only depends on us: WBC must also give your answer, because there was a need to Wlodarczyk mandatory title defense. Do not pass this responsibility on Thrush?
These are the nuances that promoters and lawyers should now read. Eight months – this is normal, and the battle can be carried out in four, and seven.
