I honestly think I'm going to have a hard time sleeping tonight because I'm so excited for this card

It would be perfect if Briedis faces the loser of this fight on the Usyk vs winner card on May 11th.

Its strange that Gassiev (6ī3 1/2) is billed as half an inch taller than Dorticos (6ī3). Either Dorticos is 6ī4 then or Gassiev is 6ī2 1/2 .

watch the weigh in video where they faced off they're the same height at 6'3 but gassiev is billed as 6'3 1/2..don't know where they got the half from,both the same height..should be a fun fight,may the best man win

*******'s one hell of a drug, man.

He's consistently looking out of his box at these events I don't know how he does it must be super grade gear he's on

[mlac]

Lol his neck is on another level. I gotta find out what abel has these guys doing

Murat eats horse meat. maybe thats the secret?

btw i missed the weigh in. How did the Kalle gurn cam go? i trust he was out of his mind on the marching powder

Neither Gassiev nor Dorticos were dropped in pro bouts so far.So Dorticos apparently can take a punch too. I can't wait for this fight which won't go past 5 rounds.

Wrong... Dorticos has been down and will go again and stay there...
From WIKI "Dorticos was knocked down for the first time against on the first round of a bout against Eric Fields. He was able to dust himself off and return the knockdown towards the end of that same round. Dorticos knocked out Fields at 2:59 in round 4."


Gassiev putting Dorticos Sleeep ZZZ!!!

Gassiev has a pretty solid chin. I am not even sure if he was hurt as a pro
Dorticos has a bad habit to open his mouth while punching. Might get his jaw broken if countered

Lol could be.. I'm gonna watch the weigh in soon, fully expect to see him either very happy or look strung out

Yea I noticed that too, someone counters him while he does that and that jaw is getting broken

We don't know yet how good Gassievīs and Dorticosīs chins are until tomorrow. For both its the toughest test of their careers.

Gassiev has already confirmed he's moving to heavyweight after this fight/the final. Usyk has confirmed he's moving up after the final too.

So it will likely be Breidis V Dorticos for all the vacant belts, with Shovel Face Lebedev, Bellew and a roided up Ward sniffing around as well..
