    Well, I guess that makes Gvozdyk (or even guys like Kovalev) American. :smile:

    I'm not sure, but, from what I know, Beterbiev has never applied for Canadian citizenship.

    The Republic of Dagestan IS a federal subject of Russia, so yeah.... he's a Russian.

    He always wears at least one item of clothing with Russia written on it

    Beterbiev would have won this fight 2 years ago, but I think Gvosdyk has grown more as a fighter in the last year. also I think Kovalev even at this stage would beat Gvosdyk

    Bout time we got another LW champ fighting one another! They have been the worst division of champs not fighting champs for a while!

    there should be nothing but love for both fighters. if either win it will perhaps be the biggest win of their entire career.

    According to Egis Klimas:
    "Gvozdyk also has signed the contract. This fight was absolutely easy to negotiate – it had been offered to us, and we didn't reject. … Beterbiev is a good boxer with a lot of experience, extensive amateur career. This fight won’t be easy for either of them, but the winner will go away with two belts."
