LONDON, AUGUST 11 – Olympic gold medallist Hebert Conceição will be unleashed into the professional ranks this weekend. The Brazilian hero, who claimed gold in spectacular fashion in Tokyo last summer, makes his professional debut on Saturday night in Tashkent, Uzbekistan on a show staged by LIFT Promotions.  Probellum fighter Conceicao dramatically knocked out Ukraine’s Oleksandr Khyzhniak in the final round of their middleweight showdown at the Olympics and ever since that win, the 24-year-old has been working diligently behind closed doors to prepare for life as a pro.  Conceição faces Nicaragua’s Danny Mendoza over six rounds at the Humo Arena, on a card that features two other Olympic champions.  “My professional debut will come just over a year since I won my Olympic gold medal in that unforgettable final,” Conceição said.  “I have spent the past year working hard in gyms around the world with my coach Luiz Dorea, to make sure I am ready to make a statement as a professional.  “Give me 18 months and I believe I will be ready for big fights and titles and so August 13, in Uzbekistan, is the beginning of a beautiful journey that will culminate in me bringing world titles back to Brazil.”  Conceição was due to make his pro bow in mid-June in Dubai but a last-minute withdrawal by his opponent, citing an injury, meant the Olympic star had to bide his time.  But the wait is now over with Conceição joining Fazliddin Gaibnazarov and Shakhobidin Zoirov, gold medallists from Rio 2016, on the show.   To keep up to date with the latest news on Conceicao’s pro debut sign up to our newsletter?or follow Probellum on?Instagram,?Twitter?and?Facebook.????  You can also follow our official news, results, and information account, Probellum News, on Twitter.?

LONDON, JUNE 14 – Olympic gold medallist Hebert Conceição makes his long-awaited professional debut in Dubai this weekend.
The Brazilian middleweight is set to fight over six rounds at Caesers Palace on Saturday (June 18), against an opponent to be confirmed, as he starts his journey to become an “idol” of the sport in his country.

Conceição, who was referred to as Hebert Sousa in the Olympics, won gold by knocking out Ukraine’s Oleksandr Khyzhniak in a dramatic final in Tokyo last August.

The 24-year-old now has his sights set on professional glory and bringing world title fights back to his homeland, where anticipation has been sky-high for confirmation of his paid debut.

“People have been stopping me in the street to asking me when my debut is going to happen – and now I can tell them!” said Conceição.

HEAVYWEIGHT JALOLOV IN SHUDDERING KO WIN

“I have lost count of how many times I have watched that winning punch from the Olympics but now I am focused on adapting to becoming a professional fighter, so I have been doing a lot of training since Tokyo.

“I have missed fighting, but now I need two years to gain the right amount of experience and then, in the third year, I want to be fighting for the world title.

“I want to be the new idol in Brazil, and I want to make boxing even more popular than it already is in my country.

“It is not only a dream, but it is a goal for me to have a huge fight in my home city of Salvador and the state of Bahia is where most of the known Brazilian fighters come from.”

Conceição wants to live up to the expectations of fighters from his home state, including former two-weight world champion Acelino Freitas and Robson Conceição, the WBC’s No2 ranked super featherweight.

But the gold medal hero is also inspired by the country’s other combat sport stars, especially ex-UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva.

“I was hanging out with Anderson a few weeks ago in Dubai, and I spent some time training with him,” said Conceição.

“Anderson told me a lot about his life. We have a lot of things in common and I have been really inspired by his story.”
