The fight Blagoy Naydenov has not forgotten

In 2014, Naydenov won Youth Olympic and World Youth gold at 81 kg and emerged as one of Bulgaria's brightest talents of his generation. On 21 February 2015, his professional debut in Cluj ended in defeat to Ionut Trandafir.

Blagoy has not recorded another professional bout since. In November, he returns to the ring in Pleven against the man with whom this unfinished story began.

The previous gala · 25 April 2026

Pleven has felt that atmosphere

Support from the stands, music at ringside and a win for the home crowd. In April, Yosif Panov stopped Joniker Tovar in the first round at Balkanstroy Hall.

Now Pleven looks ahead to another night of professional boxing, with new opponents and another chance to see the Viper in front of his own fans.
