Where the hell is he? SHould he stay in the cruisers? canhe compete with the top 10 HWs? IMO he hits just as hard as Anthony Joshua, has great technique, great stamina, great defense. Should he move up to HW?
Will lose to the top imo. Imagine vs Miller. Miller would eat em like broccoli. Gassiev is not nearly as skilled as Usyk don't forget.
That's true. On second thought Gassiev probably beats Miller. Miller has a sketchy resume imo. Would you be surprised if Miller gets KO'd & Retires? Miller hasn't mixed it up with the real heavy hitters yet. So many unanswered questions with Miller.
First of all there's no shame in losing to Usyk,many had it an even fight until Usyk showed how great he actually is.That said the manner of the defeat was a little embarrassing so imo he needs to stay where he is a fight Briedis a common opponent of Usyk to show to himself and us how good he is against the rest if that makes sense? walking forward and swinging away would be a recipe for disaster at heavyweight imo,only reason we fancy Usyk against the big guy's is because of his movement,weird angles and the numbers he puts out.Gassiev has neither imo.
Coming off an injury and long layoff I'd say just a knock the rust off fight. Get a Lateef Kayode type and ko him. After that look for a title at cruiser, he is still young no need to rush to heavy when he still has time and room to improve
Gassiev should move up to heavyweight. He has NASTY power and will carry it up or even hit a little harder after packing on some more mass. He’s still young and learning and will be a major force up there by the time he’s 28/29.
Considering how young Gassiev is he should stay at cruiserweight and get more experience. However, he needs to get more active and take his training more seriously, since I don’t see him beating any of the top 10 heavyweights at the moment.
