He has the talent to become a star, but he won't go far with Bob Arum as his co-promoter.

Why does Top Rank sign East Europeans and just ruin them? Compare Gvozdyk, Korobov and Mekhontsev's careers to Beterbiev, Deveranchenko, Shabranskyy, GGG and Kovalev.

East Europeans are better off with Main Events, Haymon/PBC, K-2, Golden Boy, Dibella, or Gym.
