    Wallin going to show you all what a mediocre big man does to a once decent midget.

    I really hope Gassiev wins this one. But I wouldn't bet on it. ,,well maybe if I get great odds.

    If Gassiev wins, is he legit at heavyweight?

    Gassiev though neither result would surprise me. Both are undervalued guys, but at some point the hammer is going to drop, I think.

    У́сик's resume is going to take another hit. Гассиев is going to get out boxed. Wallin by decision.

    A huge international / interplanetary catastrophe waiting to happen. When Gassiev punch-launches Wallin to the moon, then the USA, China, Russia, and India will have to politically argue who's in charge of the moon for visa purposes, as Wallin would have landed there illegally. So yet another massive immigrant black eye. Boxing doesn't need this. In sum, Gassiev by brutal KO.

    If Gassiev loses it doesn't affect Usyk's resume at all considering what an injury-ravaged mess he's been and how insanely inactive he's been since he fought Usyk not to mention the very low level of opposition he's been facing :lol:

    If it wasn't for that four round fight against Wallish he would't have even fought one round a year since then

    The winner, if not too bashed up would be an ideal December opponent for Joshua since it looks like the Wilder fight is being pushed back (At best)

    Can't believe Gassiev is still only 29 years old.

    If he wins this then that will likely push up up the ranks for an eliminator bout perhaps?

    If he loses he should go back down to Cruiser.

    Wallin is decent, but being vastly overrated due to his effort against Tyson. Sure, Gassiev looked poor in both of his outings against southpaws, in Usyk and Lebedev. But they're both several levels above Wallin's clunky clumsy ass. This is what he does to rudimentary non slick southpaws.

    I think Wallin could do it. He seems much bigger and has a good engine, chin and determination. Wouldn't surprise me if he pulls it off. Problem is he seems underpowered and Gassiev apparently has a huge punch, so hard to commit to that if Wallin has to bash away all night and Gassiev needs only a few big hooks or something.
