Dmitry Sosnovskiy, head coach of the Ukrainian boxing team, believes that the criticism of Oleksandr Usik (14-0, 11 KO) on the fact that he agreed to fight with Murat Gassiev (26-0, 19 KO) in Moscow is not at all just because he did not make that decision himself.
Dmitry Sosnovskiy said this to Tribuna.com
"The decision of Alexander to accept a fight in Moscow is not a decision itself – there is a team. That was my first thought: the battle was to take place in a neutral territory, even if it was not a Ukrainian.Russians, and two other boxers, "said Sosnovsky

The expert noted that a Ukrainian can win even on the territory of the opponent, if he will be at maximum
"Who is the favorite?" They are two champions in which everything is equal "There are goodies in Usik, some in Gassiev, we do not even say that the fight is in Russian territory. I speak exclusively of technique and tactics. I would not give a favorite, everyone has a chance. I do not think that one of them is a favorite. I spoke and said: "Asic" is a very talented boxer. But I'm not on his side and I do not really understand the professional boxing system. You know, amateur and professional boxing only combines the word "boxing", – summed up the coach of the national team.
Recall that some problems with the organization of the Usik-Gassiev battle still exist. This information was also confirmed by the promising Ukrainian Oleksandr Krasyuk
The duel is scheduled to take place on July 21 at the Moscow Olympic Stadium.
