“Why did I lose to Wallin? He was better, stronger, faster than me. We have to work and start again.
Gassiev’s trainer disagrees with the judge’s verdict in the fight with Wallin
I was poisoned, I didn’t sleep enough… They said a lot of things. I was good, but my opponent was much better prepared. He didn’t let me show my full potential.
I would love to box with him again. If the opportunity presents itself, I will not miss it. And then – how it happened,” Match TV quotes Gassiev.
Note that Wallin’s defeat was the second of Gassiev’s career. Previously, he was defeated in a fight with Ukrainian Alexander Usik, when both athletes competed in the light heavyweight division.
