E. Kavaliauskas, who settled his affairs in the first seconds of the eighth round, does not rule out the possibility of fighting again for the world champion belt. Expect revenge against T. Crawford.
“Crawford doesn’t have much of a choice in this weight class, so I’m the guy he has to fight again. No one would do more to him than I did last year,” said a fighter nicknamed “Fierce Machine.”
The best Lithuanian boxer achieved the 22nd victory of his career on March 24. 31-year-old M. Zewski suffered the second loss of his career, with 34 victories at his expense.
Prior to this fight, M. Zewski ranked higher in the WBO middleweight category – he was in seventh place and E. Kavaliauskas in 13.
