Murat Georgievich Gassiev vs. Kem Ljungquist Larsen & Davit Chaloyan vs. Taimoor Khan RBR.

Gassiev still hasn't learnt to properly cut off the ring, he is just timidly following Ljungquist around

1-1

 

The fight is quite boring.

 

Seems to be struggling with a southpaw style and committing to throwing yet again. If he gets by this, let's get him someone he can have a proper fight with.

2-1 Gassiev

 

Gassiev has gone from must watch TV to nothing but snoozers.

 

Why Gassiev keeps fighting tall southpaws ?

Why he can't fight someone who has bad defence and hardly moving ? (which is 80% of the HW division)

 

Admittedly Ljungquist isn't the easiest fighter to look good against but Gassiev is far too casual, he should be showing much more urgency

 

Round 4
Ljungquist 10-9 Close
Gassiev 39-37

 

Better round for Gassiev. Still seems like a fighter with a diminished left hook who is looking for the right.

 

I think it´s the footwork. He can´t get himself into position enough to be more constant with his offense. When Gassiev does get to sit down, he explodes into combinations really well.

Gassiev appeared to finally make a dent in him towards the end though.
