    How could he not be with an Italian father and Argentine mother?

    Probably just sick of Atlas screaming in his ears.

    It's surprising, but on second thoughts likely a good decision for the reasons others have already stated. I wish him all the very best.

    Some of it is tongue in cheek. I thought most if not nearly all of the homosexual talk here was in jest. But there are gay and bi men on here who appreciate, admire and are attracted to the fighters. I always thought boxing was the most macho sport and that there would be very few gay fans, but I was ignorant.

    His manager said he wanted immediately revenge with Beterbiev, but since it's impossible now (and will need too much time, that's my thoughts) he is retiring.Klimas said if someone can organize 2nd fight with Beterbiev, he can rethink his decision, but only for revenge with BTR.
    I think he realize that situation with Covid will be longer then someone thinked (there are powers that already are preparing us for 2nd wave), there will be no time for restart, or spending too much to do that.Gvozdyk has plans for business which can't wait too much(don't know how realistic are these plans).There was a plan for his fight with Jesse Hart, but again that Covid.
    P.S.Week or two ago Beterbiev said he isn't interested in revenge with Gvozdyk and would advice him to try his chance with Bivol, and if he wins, if he takes some belt, BTR would give him 2nd chance.
