In the history of Azerbaijan boxing there is not an olimpic champion. Magomedrasulov will try to break this barrier. The boxer is considered one of the favorites at the Olimpic Games. His main rival is Antony Joshua. Magomedrsulov won Antony with a slight difference in the final of the world championships. M.Madzhidov trusts himself and believes that he will bring the title of olympic champion to Azerbaijan.
