This is an awesome fight! Crusierweight delivering again. Imo Lebedev is the best cruiser in the world, but Gassiev has MASSIVE power and this is the first really big fight he will have been in. He's also gonna have a big size advantage. Can't wait for this fight

Excitement out of the CW!!! Gassiev - Lebedev could be a FOTY., maybe a KOOTY... I like Gassiev but this is a tough fight for either guy.

Now they need to finalize Povetkin vs Stiverne.... and I will have a reason to fly to Russia.
