Boxing sensation Vijender Singh is confident of a fourth knockout win on March 12, when he takes on Hungary’s Alexander Horvath in a pro fight at Liverpool’s Echo Arena.
Vijender is training for close to 10 hours a day to ensure that his win streak remains intact.
Said Vijender on his preparations, “Horvath has an impressive record in his pro boxing career, and I will leave no stone unturned. My target is to continue my winning streak and I am going through one of my toughest training sessions of my career.
“My trainers Lee Beard and Hroon Headly are working hard during each sessions.”
Vijender’s daily regime includes shadow boxing, skill and technique, running, besides endurance and strength training.
“Due to the postponement of my fight for almost a month, I got enough time to better prepare and watch videos of my opponent. My strategy to knock him out is already in place and I am looking forward to see him in the ring.
“I read that Horvath has made snake blood part of his diet. For me, it is the desi ghee since the beginning of my career,” he added.
On Monday, the 20-year-old Horvath had challenged Singh, saying he was “drinking snake blood” to defeat the Indian.
“There is a long and proud tradition of drinking fresh snake blood in my family that goes back many centuries.
“Like my forefathers, I am a true warrior and will stop at nothing to get victory,” said Horvath.
