I like Bivol, but I think it's a 50-50 fight. People underestimate Barrera, like they do Dorticos and Briedis.
Not sure if Gassiev quite has the power to hurt the sturdy Cuban. Said nobody ever. Gassiev by stoppage during the rounds 6-9.
Dorticos-Gassiev will be for the full WBA Belt, Denis Lebedev has been declared the 'Champion in Recess'.
Now I'm even more confident that Gassiev will win. Later rounds KO/TKO. I won't be surprise at all if Dorticos retires in the second part of the fight.
Gassiev will be hard to beat, but he should manage to beat Dorticos..................don't think he can beat Usyk..............
I feel like this one is easy to predict. Dorticos always looks so slack in his conditioning. If Dorticos can survive the early body attack, Gassiev takes him to deep waters and drowns him.
Gassiev breaks him up round by round culminating in a knockout finish. I can't wait for this fight. Watch out for shades of Felix Trinidad , not from the Latin guy but from the cossack.
