At the upcoming Prestige fight boxing event in Paris, a significant main event awaits in the cruiserweight category, where the American Brandon Glanton (18-2, 15 KOs) faces off against a seasoned fighter transitioning from the light heavyweight division, Emil Markić (35-4, 27 KOs).

In preparation for his upcoming bout against Glanton, Markić initiated his training regimen right after the holidays. With a renewed focus and determination, he aims to secure a victory.

Markić brings a wealth of experience to this fight, training smarter and paying more attention to his health and fitness.

The outcome of the fight against Glanton is crucial for Markić’s future plans. While his original intention was to return to the light heavyweight category, he acknowledges that his next steps will largely depend on the results of the upcoming fight.
