Xu Can Gears Up to Defend His Boxing Title! 🥊
Hey there, boxing fans! Have you heard the exciting news? Xu Can, one of the best boxers from the Chinese mainland, is getting ready to defend his title belt! He’s set to face off against France’s Jaouad Belmehdi in Beijing on August 15. Mark your calendars! 📅
Xu Can, also known as “The Monster,” has been training hard for this big day. He said, “Of course, I have experienced defeats and gone through periods of setbacks and faced doubts. But the unwavering support and encouragement from my fans have kept the fire within me burning brightly.” Isn’t that inspiring? 🔥
Back in 2019, Xu made history by becoming the third boxer from the Chinese mainland to win a major international title after defeating Jesus Rojas in Texas, USA. He joined the ranks of boxing stars Zou Shiming and Zhang Zhilei. How cool is that? 🏆
After defending his belt twice, Xu faced a tough loss against Leigh Wood in 2021. But he didn’t give up! Last year, he bounced back by winning the IBO international super feather title with an awesome victory over Jhonatan Arenas. Talk about a comeback! 💥
Now, Xu is preparing to face Belmehdi, a strong opponent with an impressive record of 23 wins, only one loss, and 11 knockouts! Xu said, “I know all too well that defending a title is even more difficult than winning it in the first place. My opponent is a tough competitor. He is a worthy adversary, and I am leaving nothing to chance in my preparations.”
This match is going to be epic! Are you excited to see who will come out on top? Let us know who you’re cheering for! 🙌
