WBA cruiserweight champion Denis Lebedev does not give a great chance to his compatriot, IBF champion Murat Gassiev to reach the finals of the World Boxing Super Series (WBSS). October 21 Gassiev figured out Krzysztof Wlodarczyk in three rounds and went to the semifinals, where he will meet with the WBA champion Yunier Dorticos.
"In his next fight Murat will find himself in a very difficult situation. I think he cannot cope with Dorticos. What I did not do in my fight with Murat, Dorticos will probably do. He is an amazing boxer - he can fight both inside and outside. Unfortunately or fortunately, probably, it's up to him and his fans, and I do not want to offend anyone, Murat is monotonous powerful slugger. Dorticos knows how to move, dodge, change angles of his attacks and his right is the heaviest in this weight division,” Lebedev added.
