Artem Suslenkov

[Charles Martel]

Artem Suslenkov is a small heavyweight at 6'1", but a very good boxer. Suslenkov is a very devout Christian who has been known to have hymns playing for his ring walks.

He faces the much bigger 6'6" Joe Joyce on Saturday July 11. The fight will be on DAZN as well as YouTube, but in the morning in the USA because of the time difference with Moscow.

Artem Suslenkov defeated Joe Joyce today by TKO 11.

Artem Suslenkov knocked the bigger Sergey Kuzmin down twice in round 4 today in Grozny, Russia, and then Kuzmin's corner retired their boxer between rounds.



Kuzmin did not look as good as he did a few years ago, but he was still a decent stay-busy opponent for Suslenkov.

 

[Truthman]

He's a good, underrated strong heavyweight. Could surprise people, I see him being a good top 10 contender.

Wrong how he's only ranked in one of main organisations top 15 though, 9th with the WBA, he should be ranked higher and by more organisations.

BoxRec's site administrators are refusing to put several of Suslenkov's fights on his BoxRec record, probably because of an anti-Russian bias.
