Shelestyuk called the main mistake of Benavides in the fight with Gvozdyk

Ukrainian boxer Taras Shelestyuk (19-0-1, 11 KOs) commented on the defeat of former world champion compatriot Oleksandr Gvozdyk (20-2, 16 KOs) by American interim WBC light heavyweight champion David Benavides (29-0, 24 KOs).

"How the sparring went the fight. I liked the way Benavides boxed. I was waiting to see what he had to offer at the new weight. He put on a good fight. But I think he got a little tired after the first 8 rounds and let Sane take some rounds away. Decided to finish the fight that way, not stressing himself too much.

Then Sanya was able to pick up three rounds. As far as I was concerned, he won the three rounds. But Benavides had a mistake - he thought he was going to knockout Gvozdyk. These all his charges on the punch led to the fact that he was tired after the eighth round," - said Shelestyuk in an interview for the sponsors of the YouTube channel "Tyke Mason".

Recall, this morning Benavides defeated Gvozdik by unanimous decision of the judges.
