    One of those injuries that someone at his age may not come back in 100% form from. Damn.

    He’s probably fully done after an injury like that. Bivol successfully aged him out lol.

    Benavidez vs Bivol.

    Give Gvozdyk step aside money.

    It’s like a 6 month recovery, possibly more

    Bivol dodges a bullet for the time being. Hope Beterbiev can get healthy asap.

    Gvozdyk vs. Bivol.

    Tell Benavidez to go **** himself as he's done ****all at 175.

    At this age yeah probably. His footwork will be worse cause it’s a knee injury

    I can't see how at 39 he won't come back at least somewhat diminished from pre-injury, movement will be greatly affected.

    It is absolutely no joke, and this might be "it".

    I hope benavidez steps in. I know he’s not done nothing at 175, but that fight is interesting and highly intriguing

    They need to find a replacement for Bivol he's been cursed with too much inactivity as it is: 5 fights in the last 5 years or 4.5 years. Benavidez is too dangerous at this late notice but you'd want it to be someone decent.

    WBA rankings

    Joshua Buatsi
    Albert Ramirez
    Anthony Yarde
    Dan Azeez
    Craig Richards
    Radivoje Kalajdzic
    Oleksandr Gvozdyk
    Conor Wallace
    Lawrence King
    Luis Antonio Tejeda
    Ahmed Elbiali
    Richard Rivera
    Lerrone Richards
    Ralfs Vilcans
    Yunior Menendez

    This version of Gvozdyk would be more than acceptable and I've always wanted to see that fight albeit prime versions of each other. But he's fighting Benavidez.

    Personally I'd like it to be

    Bivol vs Gvozdyk
    Benavidez vs Morrell

    That would be great

    Call up Haney; he should barely be able to fill in at that 175 weight limit

    He's a LHW afterall. Go for greatness
