WBA and IBF cruiserweight champion Murat Gassiev shared his expectations of the final of the World Boxing Super Series with the WBC and WBO champion Alexander Usyk, noting that for him this fight is no different from the rest.

"I am very happy about the upcoming event, I'm fully aware of its importance, I hope that our fight will meet the expectations that exists around this event, and I hope that this day will go down in the history of boxing. Emotionally, I approach this battle as well as any other. I understand the importance and responsibility of the upcoming event. It’s all or nothing. All my fights since 2016 had such status, defeat in any of them would have struck my career. The only difference in this fight with the rest is the number of belts at stake," said Gassiev.
