Gvozdyk is ready to face Kovalev

Interim WBC light heavyweight champion Alexander Gvozdyk announced his readiness to fight WBO title holder Sergey Kovalev of Russia. "We talked with the manager about this. I said that if there is an option to move in the other direction, let's move in another direction. Well, if there are no options, this is a sport - we will fight. We are friends with Sergey. He is a good guy, I have a great respect for him as a person and as an athlete. When he was preparing for Andre Ward, we sparred," said Gvozdyk.
