    This, every time I’ve managed to find a way to watch these fights I’ve walked away impressed with new boxers to be a fan of. Can’t wait to see who comes out on top.

          lol it's been done before with Vlad v Povetkin although I think it should be somewhere neutral

              In America it would be fair, in Asia it would be fair, in Africa it would be fair, in Australia it would be fair, in West Europe it also would be fair, anywhere, but not in Russia or in Ukraine. It's the final of the tournament in honor of the Greatest of boxers, and not just a regular fight. A venue has to be neutral.

                Don’t let that happen. WBSS must be crazy to move the fight to the kingdom of doping. I can only imagine what kind of drugs Gassiev will be on.

                  This is ridiculous if the fight goes to Russia, you should just be able to buy home field advantage.... I wasn’t exactly thrilled about jeddah but it’s different and neuatral... location shouldn’t be changed just because of who made the final

                    A lot has happened between the 2 countries since that fight.... I don’t think anything would happens but there’s definitely no love there anymore

                      Hell no, no disrespect to one of my fave fighterz in Iron Gassiev but Russia is in some serious sh!+ right now!

                      I have no doubts Ultimate Road Warrior Usyk would fight there no problems but i doubt Sanchez and his team would allow it!

                      Have the fight in NYC or Zanzibar or even Abu Dhabi!

                      It's a legacy defining fight, make it fair all around!
