The ninth round of the "Balkan Open" league will be held in Niš tomorrow, as part of which the prestigious "Emperor Constantine the Great" memorial will be organized. The Bijelo Polje Boxing Club is also participating in this important competition with a total of eight representatives, who will try to achieve the best possible results in the finale of the league season.

In the cadet competition, Petar Milićević (48 kg) will cross gloves with Strahinja Đorđević from Serbia. Among the juniors, Matija Kojović (54 kg) will fight against Strahinja Vasić, while Savo Šarčević (57 kg) will once again face Serbian national team member Ilhan Šaćirović. Omar Bahović (63 kg) will face Miloš Tijanić, and Tarik Hrapović (70 kg) will fight against Valentin Strizovski from North Macedonia.

In the youth competition, Milutin Šćekić (55 kg) will compete against Jovan Dimitrijević, Daris Mušović (70 kg) against Tadija Georgijev, while Ildan Grbović (80 kg) will take on Matija Pečić.

The competition in Niš will bring together a large number of participants, and as many as 54 fights are planned to be held in two rings, which further speaks to the importance and scale of this event.

Ahead of this challenge, Bijelopolje coach Mugoša Kovačević emphasized that the team faces a difficult task.

-Despite the unfavorable draw for our competitors, we expect a good result in Niš, especially since this is the penultimate round of the league, after which the situation in the standings will be much clearer. Our club is currently in third place, but we have ambitions to finish the season in second place. Tomorrow's results could decide a lot, although the final decision will probably be made on June 6 in Ohrid, said Mugoša Kovačević, who is also in the Bijelo Polje expedition with the club's team manager and road leader Budo Radošević.

The final of the Balkan Open League brings great uncertainty, and the appearance in Niš could be a key step for BK Bijelo Polje's ambitions in the fight for the very top of the table.
