Artem Dalakyan (22-0, 15 KOs) appreciated the victory in the fight with David Jimenez (12-1, 9 KOs) from Costa Rica, which allowed him to defend the WBA bantamweight title.
– I am very glad that, as I promised, this belt will go back to Ukraine, home. I am glad that I boxed and showed good boxing for the fans who are in Ukraine at this difficult time. This fight is dedicated to Ukraine. This victory is for the Ukrainians.
– How do you evaluate the work in the ring? Are you completely satisfied or do you think that something went wrong?
– My personal opinion is no. I completed 60 percent of what I could do. Maybe he went over, the collection was difficult, the situation in Ukraine, relatives, friends. Many factors, maybe a little bit, and this was not enough to complete 100 percent of what I can do.
