ONE WEEK TO GO! RELIKH: I'M SMARTER THAN PROGRAIS
PhilBoxing.com Sun, 21 Apr 2019

Relikh, who is training in Miami, defeated Russia?s tricky Eduard Troyanovsky by a unanimous decision, with all judges scoring it 115-113 in favour of the ?Mad Bee?, to reach the semi-final.
What is your assessment of your performance against Troyanovsky?
?I wasn?t entirely satisfied with my performance against Troyanovsky. His style was quite inconvenient, as he didn?t engage. I am convinced that Prograis? style will suit me much better.?
What is your opinion of Prograis and the challenge he presents?
?Regis Prograis is, without a doubt a good boxer, but he?s not faced, yet, anyone like me. He?s in for a surprise.?
What areas do you think you have the advantage over Prograis?
?I?m smarter than him, and I?ve had a much better boxing school.?
What is your prediction for the fight?
?There is not a single doubt in my mind that I?ll beat Prograis.?
You have fought a lot of fights ?away from home? ? are you excited to once again be fighting on a big fight card in the United States?
?No matter where a fight takes place, the purpose is to win. I am always calm and I like fighting away from home. Of course, fighting in the United States is giving great exposure, so this is an excellent motivation as well.?
