LATVIA —
“It happened when I beat Nikas Endziņa. In order to become recognized in Latvia, you have to do something scandalous, because good deeds are not appreciated enough here,” Zutis is sure.
“How many people on Instagram follow the woman who takes care of the bear in Līgatne, and how many do I have? I think she does a lot more good. I’m not exactly proud of the situation when I became known, but if I had the chance, I would beat her again.”
Boxing is regularly tried by various celebrities. Once upon a time, Ozols boxed with Gacho, nowadays both influencers and porn stars fight.”
A couple of years ago, the conversation between the musician Andras Kivić and the “father of fake news” Nik Endzis about a fight in the boxing ring became public theater. Kristaps Zutis also got involved in this situation, and it was because of this situation that Zutis became known to a wider circle.
In 2019, the video in which Zutis and Endziņa were in the boxing ring caused a wide resonance. Although many said at the time that Kristaps’ actions were professionally unethical, even after almost four years, Zutis does not regret it and, as he mentioned, would do it again if he had the chance.
