Zutis Responds to Rosenthal: Frankit Debate | VIDEO

10. Latvian champion Francis Rozentāls and Kristaps Zutis will meet at the “BAZARA 0 Fight Club III” event in January. TVNET+ invited the controversial wrestler to a conversation to find out his opinion about the beginning of the conflict, what is expected from the opponent and whether he will be ready to shake hands after the fight. During the interview, Zutis also responded to his opponent’s earlier statement that he “should fight in an open hall without tickets”.

The 35-year-old Zutis has had 15 professional boxing fights in his career – he won seven (all by knockout), lost four, three ended in a draw, and one was without a result. He is not only a boxer, as he has also won four out of five mixed martial arts (MMA) duels.

This duel against Rosenthal will not be an MMA or a boxing fight – it will take place with four-ounce gloves, in a cage and with allowed grappling.
