After a tension-filled build-up, former UFC featherweight Artem Lobov and two-division boxing champion Paulie Malignaggi fought it out last June BKFC 6. “The Russian Hammer” ended up with the unanimous decision win, which supposedly ended the bad blood.
That is not quite the case, according to Lobov, at least. Speaking to The Mac Life in a recent interview, the SBG Dublin fighter says he is open to face “Magic Man” for the second time, under boxing rules.
He even has a date and event in mind already.
“I’ve heard that he hasn’t stopped complaining, but if he wants another go, I would be more than willing,” Lobov said (transcript by MMA Junkie).
