Comments Thread For: Kalle Sauerland Talks WBSS Season 2 Draft, Usyk vs. Gassiev

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Comosa's Chief Boxing Officer, Kalle Sauerland, answered some questions on arrival in Moscow ahead of the monster Ali Trophy Final clash between Aleksandr Usyk and Murat Gassiev. You've landed in Moscow, first impressions? Yes, it is great to finally be here. Moscow is one of my favourite cities in the world, I've been here on many occasions and always have a great time! I have promoted both Russian Heavyweight World Champions Nikolai Valuev and Alexander Povetkin but this event is taking the sport to new levels it's quite simply the Champions League Final, Saturday night we will see the first ALI Trophy being lifted!

Should have asked Kalle when they are gonna set a date for Groves-Smith. Groves has tweeted recently that he's more than ready to go. Come on Kalle, get this fight booked, and IN ENGLAND, where it only makes sense.

Would it be good or bad for boxing if they both just jumped in and traded like Buglioni-Smith and it ended in round 1....

Definitely should have asked about the 3rd weight class and Groves fight.

[Chrismart]

Bantamweight
Rodriguez (IBF) Vs Moloney
Burnett (WBA)
Tete (WBO)
Donaire
Payano
Inoue
Aloyan

I'm not sure how the seeds work. Assuming Tete, Burnett and Inoue will get to pick their opponents. It will be interesting to see who picks who.

Super Lightweights
Yigit Vs Baranchyk (For the IBF title)
Relikh (WBA) Vs Troyanovsky
Prograis
Taylor
Flanagan
Martin

You'd imagine it will be Prograis or Taylor first pick. Will they go for Martin or Flanagan?
