Gevor will stop Durodola. Durodola is overrated, lost to out of shape Muralimov and lost first fight in Olympics.

 

His potential was never great. But damage wise, I agree.

 

Adam Kownacky (17-0, 14 KO) started 2018 with a spectacular victory over Iago Kiladze. Dreaming about the championship belt of the heavy category, the boxer from Lomza has ambitious plans for the coming months.

- Now I want to go back to the gym and shed some of the fat from which recent commentators have so fussed about. Then I will talk with Al Haymon and in two or three fights I will be ready to duel for the world title - declares "Babyface" in an interview with Boxingtalk.com.

- When I leave fight for a belt, I want to be 100 percent convinced that I am ready for it, because I am still making mistakes - I am a Pole. - In Saturday's fight I felt badly with my weight, which is why I did not ask for so many blows. I want to first of all take a duel in which I will feel perfectly and only then box for the belt. My next rival will be someone from the top and I will knock him out in a spectacular style, then I will feel ready for a championship opportunity.

When asked about a possible fight aganst invincible Jarrell Miller, proposed on Saturday by Showtime commentator Steve Farhood, Kownacki replies: - We've been pushing with each other since we were 15, so if we do not have a big fight or a championship match, we will not fight with each other.

"I'm expecting new information, I've agreed to this fight last week," said the giant from Liverpool. - I hope this duel will come to fruition. This is a great unexpected opportunity for me.
