Famous boxer middleweight Stanislav Kashtanov made a final decision to be Russian. The world champion of WBA will receive Russian citizenship in the near future.
“I filed documents, and the main paperwork is over. More than a year ago, I moved to Russia, we live in Serpukhov. Thanks for the country that has adopted us. I am satisfied with everything; the family has a peaceful sky over the head – that’s the main thing. I work and continue to do what I like,” TASS quotes Kashtanov.
