Boxing trainer Michael ‘Coach Mike’ Kozlowski has been raising his Champions in the United States of America for over twenty years.
Coach Mike, this is the name of the Russian boxing trainer in New York, expressed his opinion on the upcoming fight of the Ukrainian boxer Vasyl Lomachenko against the representative of the United States Teofimo Lopez:

“I was lucky to be in contact with the great Cuban amateur boxer, three time Olympic Champion, Teofilo Stevenson, who told me that he was ready to fight Muhammad Ali, but Fidel Castro did not give the go-ahead for this fight!

My friend, 1980 Olympic Games Silver Medalist, Two Time European Champion, 1981 Outstanding Amateur Boxer of the World , Serik Konakbaev, told me that after an offer from the United States for his fight against Sugar Ray Leonard, the USSR Sports Committee told him not to even dream of this fight!

In my opinion, Teofilo Stevenson and Serik Konakbaev are one of the most gifted boxers of the Olympic Russian Boxing School, who, at one time, could fight with some of the most talented American professional boxers of that time!!!

And now it’s time to see one of the most talented representatives of the Russian Boxing School, Vasyl Lomachenko, confront one of the most talented representatives of American Boxing, Teofimo Lopez!
Regarding the outcome of the fight, I can say that only Lucky Punch will help Lopez win this fight!!!
All my American students wish good luck to Vasyl Lomachenko, because they are studying same boxing technique!..”
