The invincible Darius “DFG” Fulgham (14-0, 12 KO) is positioned to his first title of the world when he prepares for Betemir “Bully” Melikuziv (15-1, 10 KO) in what is the World Boxing Association (WBA) Super Middleweight Title Eligine Eligine in Virgin Hotel Las Vegas.
28-year-old Fulghum, which fights with Houston, ranks 4th place in WBA, one machine for No. 3 Melikuziv, the Silver Olympic medalist 2016 from Uzbekistan.
The card on May 30, presented by the Golden Boy Promotions, will be broadcast live in Dazn. Both Fulghum and Melikuziv are promoted by Golden Boy.
“Everything is even, and what is happening on May 30 was to happen as planned,” Fulghum explained. “This blessing. I intend to present who I am and put the Super Middle Wweight division. They will know who I am. The winner of this fight will be in a great position for the title of World Champion. 15.00 (manager) and Golden Boy (promoter) make moves, and my task is to fight anyone in front of me.
“I arrive on May 30 to dominate Bek and make a great splash. Bek goes through” Łobuz “, but he seems to be a nice guy. He has an aggressive style, but, he doesn’t respect him, it is a more amateur style like we Uzbekistani warrior. I have all the tools to beat him, although it is a little more experienced and is a good body.
Melikuziv, 29 years vintage, suffered a lonely loss of his professional career four years ago, when he was knocked out by Gabriel Rosado (25-13-1) in the third round for Vacant World Boxing Organization (WBO) International Super Midded Midded Middle Wweight Title. Two years later, Melikuziv avenged this failure to Rosado, winning a 10-round unanimous decision, and won his last three fights.
“Technically,” said Fulghum, “it’s just another fight, but I’m excited that I’m fighting again in Las Vegas.” My two best fights were there (knockout of the first and third rounds), including my last against the southern in the same place (Virgin Hotels Las Vegas), when this fight is different in the fighting in Las Vegas, some of the best fighters and fights. He is a mecca of boxing. “
Fulghum does not believe that the results of the fights with four popular opponents from Melikuziv-Vaughn Alexander, Alan Campa, Alancez Fox and Ricardo Adrian Luna -ub Melikuziew, which are Southpaw, have any significance in terms of the result of this 10-Rund, the main duel of the event.
“It is like a crossroads between the two pretenders for Golden Boy to see who goes to larger and better things,” Fulghum summed up.
Fulghum was a decorative amateur boxer who took first place in the US as weighty, but as a professional he fought strictly as a super average weight. He won the highest awards during the Golden Gloves 2018 national tournament and Olympic rehearsals in 2020; Both of these main amateur achievements were
He achieved when he obtained a nursing rank at the University of Prairie View A & m.
Fulghum works with 3-point management (15.00), which has a growing stable of talented boxers, including the WBA world champion and WBO WBO Wall Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramirez (47-1, 30 Kos), WBO No. 1/WBA No. 2 Rating World Super Flyweight Title, John “Screapharappy” Ramierz (14-1, 9-1, 9-1, 9 Kos), former World Heavyweight no. 4-rank olesandr. Gvozdyk (21-2, 17 KO), former WBA Master Inter-Continental Lithe Heavyweight, Kareem “Supreme” Hackett (12-1, 6 KO) and German younger semi-semi-medium weight Simon “Saucy” Vollmer (6-0, 2 KO).

The unified WBA, WBO and Ring Magazine minimumweight champion improved to 15-0 with 12 knockouts after defeating Valdez three times before Mexico’s corner stopped the fight at 2:35 of the second round.
Making his final appearance at 112 pounds, Collazo showed his strength immediately transferred to the upper division, defeating Valdez from the opening bell at Frontwave Arena in Oceanside, California.
The Puerto Rican striker repeatedly found a home for his left hand and left no doubt about the outcome before the fight was called off.
“I felt great at 112 pounds. I love this division. In fact, I want to stay here for a long time,” Collazo said.
Knockdowns
Collazo admitted that he had already called for the fight to be stopped.
“After the third knockdown I was basically saying, ‘Never again, never again’. It was the right decision for his safety. His corner was well checked.

The victory added another belt to Collazo’s collection and enhanced his growing reputation as one of boxing’s most invigorating champions in the lower weight division.

“The fight with Ricardo Sandoval definitely interests me. I really want that fight. I’m ready for gigantic fights. I’m ready to make history. That’s the fight I want next.”
