Metin Turunç Will Continue to Fly the TRNC Flag Around the World

National boxer Metin Turunç, who has won four championship belts, will enter a new title bout scheduled for November over eight rounds. His opponent is expected to be confirmed in the coming days. Turunç is continuing his preparations at an intense pace.

Turunç stated that, despite his achievements so far, he has not received the support he expected from officials. The athlete, who said he has largely continued his fight with his own means, noted that only Gönyeli-Alayköy Mayor Hüseyin Amcaoğlu and Cevdet, owner of Fina Petrol, have stood by him.

The athlete emphasized that he has lived in the TRNC for 25 years and is a citizen of this country. Turunç said that even though he won four belts, state officials did not consider it enough to give him a plaque or even a word of thanks.

Turunç said that despite all the difficulties, he will continue to carry the TRNC flag on the international stage.
