“I believe that the change in weight category will not affect Benavidez. I'm sure he cuts a lot of weight before his fights. And when he’s “on vacation,” let’s call it that, then he has too much... Perhaps he’s also hanging out in heavy traffic, no one knows. Therefore, I am sure that this will not have any impact. Or maybe on the contrary he will be more comfortable, because he won’t push himself so hard when he makes weight to box in the second middleweight. I believe that the stronger and better the opposition, the better you can prove yourself. I am sure that Alexander Gvozdyk is ready for such a fight. He is a very experienced athlete, not his first year in professional boxing. He knows and feels exactly himself and his condition. If he agreed to such a battle, then he will be ready for it both psychologically and physically. For me, Alexander will be my favorite. Because I support him very much and it’s very difficult for me to give any kind of expert assessment, because, let’s say, I’m biased in his direction and will root for him and support him.”
