Albanian boxer who has flooded Belgrade with super-show, risks semifinals

Albanian boxer Alban Beqiri has written the story recently, writes Periscopi.

Yesterday's success of Jordanian Zeyad Eash cut the ticket to the semifinals, providing the bronze medal in the 67-71kg weight category.

A fantastic achievement by Beqiri, who honoured himself and all Albanians with an excellent boxing in the ring, showing an extraordinary technique and level. According to the calendar tomorrow, Alban Beqiri must climb into the ring for the semifinal match against Russian Vadim Musaev.

But the red fighter is in grave doubt about this duel because of the injuries. This is confirmed by the boxer himself in an exclusive pronomation for the newspaper “Panorama Sport”, where he puts it: “I'm afraid I won't be able to continue for the next few matches, because I've got huge injuries in the middle. This has happened since the second match against Lithuanian, and I'm boxing with a muscle break, and now it's getting really bad, I can't move. I also have a problem. However, I'm going to have therapy all day long and I'm going to be able to improve”.

In the next few hours, the boxer will make a final decision if he is able to continue the duels. Reaching the semifinals, however, and winning the bronze medal is an extraordinary thing for him and Albania.

I'm the first to get medals for growing up in such a difficult sport in the AIBA federation. To achieve results here is something very large”, says the young man originally from Puka, who is part of the Tirana team.

Asked if he expected these results, Alban Beqiri declares: “to say the right to our terms and for as little training as I had done, I had little security, but I still motivated myself as many days as I could, training myself hard and I was able to create great self-confidence.

I even put up with my strength and worked hard at my preparation. Yet, with faith in God, I achieved my goal and things went well”.

The Boxing World in Serbia also produced Kosovo's non-licitation scandal to participate on the part of Serbian authorities, as well as the Albanian flag during the event. This has also been an added motivation for Bekiri, who gave the best answer in the ring:

That makes me even happier for the outcome. They didn't like us during the parade at the ceremony as well during the moment of the climb.

But with the appearances in the ring shut everyone up, and this made me happier even more”, Beqiri has concluded, who shocked Belgrade with his boxing, raising weight to all Albanians.
