Exclusive Albert Selimov’s amateur boxing star opened only to World Boxing News on days after Nemesis Vasiliy Lomachenko retired.
Selimov will forever remain the only Lomachenko amateur amateur album, which reads 396-1. This is Selimov, who defeated the Ukrainian champion at the Amateur World Championships in 2007.
The victory, built into boxing folklore, appeared again to the surface when Lomachenko confirmed the end of his career.
Lomachenko said: “My dear boxing fans around the world. You’ve always supported me with passion and have experienced unforgettable fights for over a decade.
“I hope you still love and respect this sport as passionately, because a man who enters the ring risks his health because of his family” when he hung up his gloves for good.
Loma output caused digging, and thanks to some long -term connections in sport WBN contacted Selimov.
Albert Selimov retired Lomachenko
The 39-year-old gracefully answered and only passed these thoughts of Worldboxingnews.com in retired Lomachenko.
Selimov said WBN: “I think Lomachenko did not retire me.
“I think I can do more than what I do (against Lomachenko), but now it is his choice to retire. He is the best in world boxing and I can say that we fought good fights.”
Despite lomchenko losing at the Olympic Games in 2008 in the Mission of Vengeance, their paths never exceeded after Selimov lost the rubber match five years later.
Olympic goal
After he did not qualify for the 2012 games in London, Selimov moved to Azerbaijan to compete at the World Series of Boxing.

He was one of the favorites who went to the tournament, but lost to the French Sofiane Oumha in the quarter -finals. Despite the relatively teenage age for the boxer, Selimov decided that it was time to bow.
About whether he retired too early and he should have pressed 2020 games, Selimov said: “No, I didn’t think I went too early. Everything has time, and after 2016 it was my time.”
To sum up a comment on world boxing and Gennadiya Golovkin, saving the future of Olympic boxing for La 2028, Selimov said: “I think it’s boxing.
“I think it’s boxing and I think it will always be saved. Because without boxing the Olympic Games will not be the Olympic Games.
“We know that boxing is the best sport,” he added.
Golovkin joined the World Boxing as an ambassador and played a significant role in keeping boxing in the Olympic sports cycle.

Life after boxing
By retiring in 2016 at 30, Selimov relied on the possibility of spraining professionals and updating WBN about his current situation.
“Now I am a businessman and I assist teenage athletes become better,” explained Selimov, who asked WBN why he never became a professional.
“I wanted to become an Olympic champion, and because I wanted to take a gold medal,” he replied.
When the box is still developing, Selimov seems quite cheerful, passing on his knowledge to the next generation of sports teenage people.
The veteran is safe and sound, knowing that he has assured his place in the history of boxing without Lomachenko statistics.
Ending his career with 236 wins and 17 losses in the vest, Albert Selimov is a legend in itself and has an advantage full of medals to prove it.

Daniel Dubois survives early disaster to stop Fabio Wardley – rematch clause revealed
Published

May 10, 2026
Daniel Dubois survived two knockdowns and a brutal early gunfight to stop Fabio Wardley in the eleventh round of the heavyweight war in Manchester.
The WBO heavyweight title clash at Co-op Live appeared to be slipping away from Dubois in the opening rounds as Wardley dropped the former world champion twice and threatened to overwhelm him with sheer aggression.
Instead, Dubois weathered the storm, gradually broke down Wardley and ultimately forced a dramatic stoppage after eleven brutal rounds.
Wardley entered the fight, defeating Dubois with the first punch of the fight, before both men traded powerful shots in a disordered opening session. Dubois looked vulnerable again in the third quarter when he fell to another injured knee during another violent exchange.
Despite the early setbacks, Dubois slowly began to regain control as Wardley’s effectiveness declined and the penalty began to accumulate.
The return of Daniel Dubois
By the fourth, the momentum was starting to come back. Dubois hurt Wardley with solid shots and forced perceptible reactions from the previously undefeated challenger.
In the fifth and sixth rounds, Dubois took complete control.
Wardley struggled to establish his jab and control the pace as Dubois marched forward, applying measured pressure and harder punches. In the middle rounds, Wardley looked exhausted and severely damaged, particularly around his nose and mouth.
Dubois sensed the fight was changing.
The seventh and eighth rounds became a test of survival for Wardley, who somehow continued to fight despite appearing close to being stopped several times.
What made the fight so dramatic was that Wardley never stopped trying to score the equalizer. Even after a few rounds, he was punching backwards when Dubois gave him space.
The danger continued into the ninth quarter when Dubois nearly shut down the event in another round of wild rallies, with full live coverage of the Wardley vs. Dubois results documenting the swinging dynamics of the card.
Fabio Wardley
Heading into the championship rounds, both heavyweights looked exhausted.
Wardley was visibly weakening, while Dubois himself seemed exhausted after so much effort. The difference, however, was that Dubois still had enough power to finish the case.
Dubois landed two immaculate punches in the eleventh, ending the fight and preventing Wardley from continuing after one of the most dramatic heavyweight battles seen in Britain this year.
Frank Warren later revealed that there was a rematch clause, leaving the door open for Wardley to seek revenge after the first defeat of his professional career.
The result gives Dubois another major heavyweight victory after recovering from an early crash, while Wardley pushed the former champion to the limit in a fight that could easily have resulted in a second chapter.
The WBN Wardley vs Dubois scorecard and round-by-round coverage followed as Dubois completely turned the fight around after early knockdowns.
