I think usyk will win... but I picked dorticos at the start of the tournament so I will stick to my pick and vote dorticos instead of bailing on him now lol.
While I really like Dorticos, I think he loses to Gassiev, and the final will be Usyk-Murat, with Usyk schooling him with ease.
I had high hopes for Gassiev but Sanchez really seems to be sapping this kids confidence. Seems to be making too many excuses already and he looks to be eating a few too many burrito's. Gassiev might just be too green, and too reliant on the Sanchez game plans. I just hope someone gives Usyk a hard fight, it doesn't really matter who. Gassiev needs to show me something against this tough vet Wlod and I will be back on the bandwagon.
So what? "Green" Gassiev beating arguably the best Cruiserweight not named Usyk in Lebedev wasn't impressive enough for you? Get over your irrational hate of GGG, now its spreading to other fighters in Abel's stable, I hate Abel's guts, I find him repellant, but Gassiev is still a kid, in spite of the fact that he looks at least 35, he should be carefully guided and trained, most dumb kids, make mistakes early in their career, and get KTFO, Gassiev doesn't need to stray off the gameplan laid out by Abel, he should follow it to the letter.
