A well-known Kazakh mentor who raised many champions in the professional fight club “Erkin Kush” Aibek Shokputov shared his opinion about the fight with Sports.kz Shavkat Rakhmonov (19-0) vs. Irish Iana Machado Garry (15-1).
— The fight turned out to be very competitive and interesting. Shavkat's pass to the feet, where he moved the Irishman and controlled him on the ground, was the right decision. Rakhmonov did a good job of keeping Garry at a distance and hitting well. Ian was unable to inflict much damage on the Kazakhstani. But bruises were visible on Harry’s face. At least Shavkat’s strike was harder. Yes, the Irishman had a short-term advantage in places, but this was not a significant factor in the matter…
