    I know there are still 6 weeks until his fight with Usyk, but Gassiev needs to shed at least 40 lbs considering his current shape -

    Great, now all of the ever growing legion of Usyk haters will have their "he was drained, he outgrew Cruiserweight" excuses ready to discredit him for this win.

    Isn’t that Akhmedov next to Sanchez? I wonder if Abel is going to land him once GGG retires.

    Uysk will eat chubby alive, Uysk is the cream of the crop. Unable Sanchez is an idiot he should be whipping Gassiev into the best shape of his life, it's his only shot

    He always looks in good shape come fight night. He's just a big guy. He's a big natural CW who will probably eventually fill out to a HW frame.

    He's not going to stay in CW for much longer. The allure of the HW division is strong, but he's also just outgrowing the division.

    It's common for fighters 175 and higher to be a little softer around the middle and the face than guys at 168 and below. Different body types. You don't have to be absolutely shredded at the higher weights. Just be in shape. As "fat" as Gassiev is he's no Fury, and I'm talking about the "in shape" version of Fury.
