Former WBC light-heavyweight champion Alexander Gvozdik said for whom he will be rooting for in the confrontation between Artur Beterbiev and Dmitry Bivol, who will determine the absolute world champion in the light-heavyweight division.
"I will be rooting for Beterbiev. But only for the reason that he defeated me. And automatically his victory over Bivol boosts my resume. Just because of that. Some personal sympathy for Bivol or Beterbiev, or on the contrary, some dislike, I don't have. I don't care. Just a sports prism. Beterbiev has grown old. But, as far as I'm concerned, he's still pretty strong. It's an interesting fight. I think it's 50/50. I'm a little bit in Beterbiev's favor. But the main thing is that his age doesn't play a decisive role. Maybe he's not the same. But I think he's still very strong.
