    3 likely scenarios to this fight. Beterbiev by KO early to mid rounds. Gvozdyk by KO late. Gvozdyk by points. Of the 3, the last is probably the most likely scenario but I am hoping the first is the outcome.

    So much chaos here. I can see an early KO from both ends, a middle KO on both ends. If there's a later stoppage or decision it's more likely Gvozdyk will be getting the one getting his hand raised. Close to 50/50 fight. Its been a long time since a match has felt surreal to me but this is it. Two of the sports best facing off with little to no politics involved.

    I've been giving sober October a go and I really want to break out the booze for this one but going to treat myself to a nice homecooked meal instead. Enjoy the fights guys!

    I suspect that Oleksandr Gvozdyk will win via TKO between rounds 7 to 10.

    Artur Beterbiev will throw singles and combinations, but will only land one punch at a time in any sequence. When he punches in combinations or with Gvozdyk, he will land once or twice, but not enough to win the "moment". He will find that he is not landing enough to turn the 'story of the fight' which will be Gvozdyk's movement and constant pressure with throwing punches and making Beterbiev miss regularly. Gvozdyk will win most of the exchanges between the two fighters.

    I propose that Gvozdyk will beat him down with an accumulation of punches and movement and go for the KO or TKO (corner stoppage) between round 7 and 10. It will be a competitive fight throughout, Beterbiev will give it his best, but Gvozdyk will be the clear winner.

    I hope Beterbiev wins by early KO, but what I have stated above is how I expect things to play out.

    I got Beterbiev by body shot stoppage, he was able to hurt Usyk with a body shot in the Olympics, why not KO Gvozdyk that way.
