    Realistically, Gassiev should win this, Balogun has power but I'm not impressed with him...

    Is Gassiev good enough at heavy to get up there into top 10 contention or better do you think? I haven't seen any of his stuff bar the Usyk fight, v interested to see he's at heavy

    Why is he fighting in so many foreign countries recently? Isn't there demand for him in Russia

    He can do what he wants. There's demand for him everywhere. Great to watch.

    To think that he is just 29 years old.

    He needs to be more active and without injuries.

    I will favor him to beat Whyte right now

    Quite possibly the biggest waste of talent in boxing today

    Gassiev can be outboxed by the boxers and i dont think hed beat the taller fighters. But if you slug with him, youre getting KTFO.

    Hopefully his injuries are behind him.

    The fact that this is scheduled for Armenia doesn't fill me with hope that the fight will happen

    Gassiev is a fraud.

    The sychophants that try to pump him up around here are in utter denial.

    42-year-old Carlouse Welch? 40-year-old never-was Mike Balogun? Where is he finding these people? Most top heavyweights wouldn't hire these guys as sparring partners.

    Is this Gassiev ever going to try to make a run at the top of the division? Ever?

    Gassiev is as legit as it gets . Wilder on the other hand is total fraud . Gassiev KO wilder inside 5.
