    Because gvozd' means Nail in Russian and Gvozdyk is from the Russian part of Ukraine. Personally I think its a badass nickname.:conf:hey
    I'm not so sure that Bashir is the best fit but I love their chemistry.​

    Maybe in Ukrainian, but in English? :lol:

    Maybe I need some time to adjust to it.

    Bashir seems pretty good so far.

    God damn I'm rewatching Usyk/Rodriguez again. Round 6-7. That was PURE CLASS. Holy ****. This man's combinations are off the hook. Absurd timing as well, he is so smart in there. :happy

    He's so exciting to watch. I can't believe it. :yep

    Every punch in the damn book, the man throws them with mean intentions. :yikes

    And his mom looks like a lovely lady. :deal

    That's a beautiful sequence of punches blinding him with his jabs, perfectly setting up the shot the body. Gvozdyk should be nicknamed Kovachenko:yep

    Hey CST, I saw a video of this Ukrainian heavy in the Euro section, he looked pretty fluid,,,

    maybe you should do a educate thread on him in General if he impresses you :good

    I like Gvozkyk, don't know how tough he is at this point,, But he looks good thus far :bbb

    Who's that Teslenko? The third Ukrainian Oleksandr.:lol: Yeah I was thinking about doing a thread on him a few months ago, but there's not nearly enough footage available yet, I think he has like 2 matches on YT, but I will when he has more footage, I like him.

    I met this guy. When I went to the Saucedo vs Booth fight. I saw him fight and shook his hand when he came back out from the dressing room. Had a big crowd of Ukrainians in the room with the flag shirts and big ass flags on their heads.

    Beautiful women, but thats beside the point, He got a 1st round KO. Cool dude.
