The former world boxing champion has no doubts about the success of his compatriot in the Paris Games.
Alexander Khizhnyak will be an Olympic boxing champion today. This is what former light heavyweight title holder Alexander Gvozdyk said.
According to the experienced athlete, the Ukrainian is the favorite of the match. Gvozdyk also explained why Khizhnyak did not win a gold award in previous Games.
“Khizhnyak is the undisputed favorite, like every match at the Olympics, it will be a difficult match, because it is the final, but Sasha will win again and if he competes in another Olympics and the World Championships, then I will give you a prediction in advance – Khizhnyak will again beat everyone “.
Gvozdyk remembered the final of the last Olympics, when Khizhnyak lost by knockout to Brazilian Hebert Conceisan.
“Underestimation? Sasha put the pressure on, beat the Brazilian, he gave it his all. But this is boxing, this is what happens fights dry up, because he does not know how Sasha will do it all his fights at a high speed as number one,” said Alexander in an interview with sport-express. ua.
We remind you that the match between Alexander Khizhnyak and Kazakh Nurbek Oralbay will take place today, August 7. It will start no earlier than 23:51 Kyiv time.
Earlier, Gvozdyk announced the date of his next fight.
