The former world champion in heavy weight Grigory Drozd wants to compete with the Ukrainian Alexander Usik.
Last Saturday, the Tendril in Gdansk beat pole Krzysztof glowacki and became the new world champion in heavy weight under version WBO. The Ukrainians immediately began to prophesy a unification bout with Denis Lebedev or Tony Bellew. However, a potential target of the Tendril can be another renowned boxer Grigory Drozd, who is the champion “on vacation” by the WBC.
“All it would be interesting to look at my fight against Alexander Usik. This fight has long been discussed by experts in the field of Boxing. Fans have also been talking about our potential match.
How real is this fight? This question is difficult to answer. My team started negotiations with a team of Mustache, hadn’t even planned it. But I would like to get into the ring against him. It would be very interesting,” said Drozd.
Grigory Drozd in 2006 does not know defeats on a professional ring. Due to health problems, Russians have not left the ring since April of last year. The world Boxing Council took away the Thrush, the championship belt, but gave him a chance after his return to the ring will meet the new title holder Tony Bellew.
