Stoyka Petrova has acknowledged that she will have to be on top of her game in order to overcome Olympic champion Nicola Adams in their European Games quarter-final bout.
Adams secured a comfortable victory over Katalin Ancsi in Baku earlier today to advance through to the final eight in the women's flyweight category, while her opponent got the better of France's Wassila Lkhhadiri.
The Team GB boxer believes that Monday's clash in the Azerbaijani capital, which is a rematch from London 2012, is worthy of being the headline act at these Games.
Speaking ahead of their coming together, Petrova told reporters: "She is the Olympic champion, so she will be a very strong opponent. We have done a lot of fighting together. I know her very well.
"I know how to beat her. I don't mind fighting her, she has a very clear style. The next match will show who is the better fighter. Let the better fighter win."
While Adams was victorious in their 2012 Olympic Games bout, the Bulgarian boxer prevailed in the quarter-finals of the European Championships in Bucharest last year.
