Gvozdik - Benavides fight prediction by Shelestyuk (video)

Ukrainian boxing veteran Taras Shelestyuk shared his expectations from the upcoming fight between his compatriot Oleksandr Gvozdyk and David Benavides.

The meeting of these boxers, at the stake of which will be the vacant WBC heavyweight belt, will take place on the night of June 16 in Las Vegas.

"My prediction is Benavides will probably win. Probably will win by stoppage in the late rounds. This fight will be hard for the Ukrainian. If Sanya wins from him, it will be an even bigger sensation than Denis Berinchik's victory over Navarrete.

As always, I will support our Ukrainian boxer and my gold medalist teammate Sanya Gvozdyk. I wish him only victory in this fight," Shelestyuk said on his YouTube channel.
