Robert Brant was defeated in the light heavy weight division today by the tough southpaw, Nikolaj Grishunun from Latvia.  The final score that I saw was 5-1 then after the bout was over it was changed to 6-1.

The World Cup of Petroleum Countries kicked off  today in Khanty-Mansisysk, Russia.  Light Heavyweight, Robert Brant, will be boxing on Friday.  He will go up against Nikolaj Grishunin from Latvia.  To find out how the rest of Team USA is doing,  please visit the USA Boxing website.
