Oleksandr Gvozdyk, former WBC light heavyweight champion of the world, made an unexpected statement about his upcoming fight with undefeated David Benavides. The Ukrainian said that their fight may not take place on June 15.

"Let's start with specifics right away. This date, June 15, is not confirmed. This information with the date of the fight appeared on the network a long time ago, but in the contract I signed there was a different date. There were two base dates for the Las Vegas show two weeks apart. One was in late June and the other was in early July. I'm not going to give you the exact date. I don't think it's the right thing to do. So far," - said the boxer.

Recall, at stake in the fight between Gvozdyk and Benavides will stand the title of interim world champion in the light-heavyweight division of the WBC version
