Now the Swedish heavyweight has finished with a new match.
The 32-year-old faces Armenian Murat Gassiev in Antalya, Turkey, on September 30.
Up for grabs: WBA Intercontinental title.
“The last few years have been tough given that I didn’t get the opportunity to go to any bigger and more significant matches, but I finally got a big challenge,” says Wallin in a press release.
Murat Gassiev has won 30 of his 31 professional matches. In 2016-2018, the 29-year-old was undefeated cruiserweight world champion and has now won four straight heavyweight bouts.
