Green Morrell needs to fight Gvozdyk for the experience before the seasoned veteran retires

yea i am sure it is tough trying to line up fights after your high light reels are fuzzy in the past 6 years or something like that...........is he the guy who fought and defeated Adonis ? Nope will he ever draw again ? It could happen but i do not see Boxing as it is now even feeding him a diet that he can work his way thru.

Gvozdyk jeeted on boxing at 32.5 years of age for about 3.33 years after getting ko’d by Tiger Paw Artur

Floyd’s 1st retirement was almost 2 years. Then his vacation was nearly 1.5 years

Sugar Robinson initial retirement was 2.5 years

Sugar Leonard was out for 2.25 years

Ali’s exile was 3.5 years but it happened when Ali was young man

Gvozdyk retired his prime away!

Gvozdyk used to be a good fighter and I actually thought he had a good chance to beat Beterbiev. He was ahead on points ... and we all know how that finished.

Gvozdyk that I saw fight Benevidez was a shadow of the former fighter who destroyed Superman Adonis Stevenson. He had an opportunity to really hurt Benavidez in the second half of the fight, yet there was no snap on his punches, no real power. he was tentative and never went on the full attack even when it was there for the taking because Benavidez was gassed. Gvozdyk who fought Adonis and Beterbiev would have knocked out Benavidez in that fight and on that night - there is absolutely no questions in my mind.

The fact that he is still fighting and wants to fight often, means he needs the money.

I'm just thankful someone got rid of the ducking, hiding at home pimp, and retired him.

he was retired and a bizowner in ukraine

Gvozdyk’s business was a casualty of Russia’s special military operation

Gvozdyk is a gatekeeper now. Maybe he becomes contender again

Always liked the Nail. He had a fluid offense that was on display against Chilemba, Gonzalez and Stevenson. If I recall right, he was a slight favorite against Beterbiev and fought beautifully for most of the fight n in the process, he absorbed a hellacious beating from Artur and ultimately succumbed to the Russian.

Tiger Paw Artur broke Gvozdyk down with body assault

Gvozdyk ran out of gas to continue!
