Oleksandr Gvozdyk (5-0, 4 KO) vs. Francisco Sierra (26-8-1, 23 KO)

Post by Freedom2013 »

Oleksandr Gvozdyk's next fight will be against Francisco Sierra.

http://boxingnews.com.ua/ru/novosti/115 ... sko-serroj

In my opinion, Gvozdyk could be the best of all the up-and-coming light heavyweights.

Promoted by Top Rank and managed by Egor Klimas, he could be a future opponent for Kovalev, Pascal, Mekhontsev, Chilemba, Bivol and Shabranskyy.

We likely won't see him in with some light heavyweights such as Beterbiev, Stevenson and Fonfara because they are managed by Al Haymon.

Here's Gvozdyk's last fight:

a few years ago this would've been a massive test a la Beterbiev vs Cloud... but not sure what today's version of Henry is worth. i was surprised back then how well he had done vs puncher Diaconnu and even more how quickly he had disposed of Garay.

I like Sierra for his entertaining value and he is a test for prospects with big flaws... which is not Oleksandr's case... he is in a few class higher than Sierra and it will QUICKLY be apparent. Good news Oleksandr won;t have to look for him.

Thanks for the youtube link, this guy probably be a LHW belt holder one day , and seems to have large frame that may enable him to move up to heavyweight one day.

Guy Who I saw in this forum youtube clip that impressed me more, was Arif Magomedov, he may not have a chance to climb as high as Gvozdyk, but I loved the way he put the combinations together kind reminded me of a MW, Marquez on the way he threw the combinations, with as splash of Dzinziruk with two handed punching power.

I believe Gbenga was a late sub.
