Vyacheslay Glazkov Vs Charles Martin HEATS UP – Breaking Boxing News
Two heavyweight title fights will take place on one history-making night on January 16 at Barclays Center in Brooklyn. In addition to the WBC heavyweight title fight between world champion Deontay Wilder (35-0, 34 KOs) and Artur Szpilka (20-1, 15 KOs), undefeated heavyweight challengers Charles Martin (22-0-1, 20 KOs) and Vyacheslav Glazkov (21-0-1, 13 KOs) meet for the vacant IBF version of the same world title.
Charles Martin: ”I’m feeling really blessed to get this opportunity. I want to become a world champion so I can go down in history as a top heavyweight. Glazkov is a great fighter. He’s undefeated, so I know it’s going to be a tough fight, but I’m coming in to be victorious. I’m getting ready and training hard so I can go out there and get that win.”
Vyacheslav Glazkov: “I am looking forward to getting back in the ring and finally getting my opportunity to fight for a world title. I want to thank everyone who helped me get to this place in my career.”
Promoter Lou DiBella: “There has not been a heavyweight title fight in Brooklyn in 115 years. On January 16, there will be two.”
