Russian welterweight Marat Khuzeev (15-2-1, 6 KOs) successfully returned into the ring for the first time since his loss to Ukrainian Victor Plotnikov this February. On Thursday in a tune-up fight Khuzeev has scored an easy unanimous decision over trial-horse Andrey Tylilyuk (2-22-1, 1 KO) on all three scorecards: 80-72, 80-72, and 80-73.
A huge show, featuring one minor title fight and a group of talented fighters, will be arranged today in Cheboksary by RS Sport Promotion. The main event will see undefeated Russian heavyweight Alexey Solovyev (12-0, 7 KO) in a non-title twelve-rounder versus Kenyan Tom Okusi (5-8-1, 5 KOs).
