Ivan Zucco get back in the ring. Friday 24 March, atAllianz Cloud in Milan (live TV and exclusive streaming on Dazn from 8 pm), the super-middleweight – 16 wins out of 16 (14 before the limit) – will defend the WBC international title against the English Germaine Brown (12-1-0, three before the limit). It will be a tough match against a strong opponent in which I will defend my belt at all costs. I trained hard between Croatia and Spain to arrive prepared for this match. I am excited and impatient to fight also because winning would finally mean being able to compete for the European Championship. To quote Million Dollar Baby the magic of risking everything to realize a dream that no one sees except you, Zucco’s words speaking of the defense of the title conquered last April in his Verbania by knockout in the second round against the Serbian Marko Nikolic.

Before entering the ring, the Serbian boasted a respectable curriculum: 28 victories (12 by knockout) out of 29 disputed matches. That victory consecrated Zucco as one of the emerging talents of Italian boxing. That April day Ivan, Ivan, Ivan had been the scream of his sports arena Verbania as soon as the 26-year-old entered the ring to applause. Zucco’s path is unstoppable and he will try to keep him unbeatable. On April 16, 2021, he captured the Italian title with a six-round victory over Luca Capuano, in Milan, then defending it with a three-round victory against Ignazio Crivello in Verbania in July 2021.

Confirming that Italian boxing has found a talent. left-handed (There are many famous ones in the world of sport, Rafa Nadal and Lionel Messi to name but two, he had emphasized in the past), fast and hungry. For Friday I expect a hard-fought and “head” match. I will try to put it more physically, I have trained very hard for this fight and I think I am physically superior. The challenger is a very good opponent, intelligent and strong, but I am no less. I’m happy to compare myself with a valuable guy like him. I dream of having a great evening like many we have already had and, obviously, the icing on the cake would be a great victory, the defense of the title and the victory for Italy, since it will be a match against an Englishman. I’ll try to win for everyone, but above all for me and for all the sacrifices and renunciations I’ve made so far, concluded Zucco.
