Gotzev looking for biggest opportunity for Liakhovich, Peter

Press Release: Since he started the Elite Boxing Group over a decade ago, manager Ivaylo Gotzev has been on the prowl for talented, young prospects and developing them into world champions.  Dating back to the end of their amateur days, Gotzev has handled the careers of WBO Heavyweight Champion Sergei Lyakhovich, 23-1 with 14 KO's and heavyweight contender Samuel Peter, 26-1 with 22 KO's, turning them both into stars. Now, Gotzev says the next step is to secure the kind of fights for them that will get the general public excited about heavyweight boxing again. “We’re here and ready to go,” says Gotzev to the promoters he is waiting to hear from. According to Gotzev, Lyakhovich took the title from Lamon Brewster in a complete war that was the best heavyweight fight of the last ten years. And Samuel, he continues, “is the man with the punch that generates heart-pounding action that people crave to see again. I’ll put either of my guys in against any of the champions or top-rated contenders in the world. Now it’s up to the various promoters to do the same. “Let the new era begin. I say let my two guys go in and clear out the mess. The Elite Boxing Group is ready.”
