Gary Russell Jr to Return on Wilder/Breazeale UC

[KTFOKING]

SOURCES: Gary Russell Jr. is expected to return May 18 on the Showtime undercard of Deontay Wilder vs. Dominic Breazeale. Russell hasn’t competed since a May 2018 victory over JoJo Diaz. Last time Russell competed twice in one year? 2014

GRJ's yearly return bout. But this time he better fight twice this year and against LSC next. Shoot, he should be fighting LSC right now regardless.

Hopefully he fights Nyambayar.

Against TBA -- fantastic!

[KTFOKING]

Hopefully he fights Nyambayar.

Kiko Martinez was the rumored opponent in April. I bet it is still him, but then either he has to fight Nyambayar who will be called as his mandatory or LSC in a unification bout. I bet it is the latter before he moves up to 130.

I'm getting the impression he wants nothing to do with Santa Cruz.

Gary Russell living his best life, works 1 day out the year and gets to call himself a champion.

Another joke of a fighter......

I thought Gary Russell is big enough to headline his own card now

Unless he will fight 2-3 times this year

Thanks man....after the GGG opponent news, I needed a good laugh over here.

Tank is fighting 3 times this year so you can always hope
