Interview with Bojan Velickovic below

Bojan Velickovic (25-12-2) discusses his welterweight fight against Ronald Paradeiser (21-9) at OKTAGON 72 on June 14. Bojan also explains why he hasn’t fought since December 2023, giving part of his tournament winnings to his mother and why this may be his last fight.

“I think this could be my last fight, we’ll see. My wife is pregnant, we’re expecting the baby in August. I’m actually also planning to apply to the firefighter academy and EMT certification. I really want to be active and feel good the rest of my life. I don’t want to fight until this fight business takes it’s toll on my body.”
