​Uncrowned brings you live results, round-by-round updates, highlights, ring walks, and start times for the Gassiev vs. Kadiru fight card this Saturday from the VTB Arena in Moscow, Russia. In the night’s main event, newly crowned WBA heavyweight champion Murat Gassiev defends his title against Peter Kadiru. Gassiev (33-2, 26 KOs) is a former unified cruiserweight champion who was elevated to full WBA heavyweight champion after Oleksandr Usyk relinquished his belts last month. He captured the WBA Regular title last December with a brutal sixth-round knockout of former title challenger Kubrat Pulev. The Russian veteran has competed eight times at heavyweight, dropping a single decision to Otto Wallin in a 2023 IBF title eliminator.
Kadiru, fighting out of Germany, is 23-1 with 13 KOs and has won nine straight since his lone career defeat—a first-round KO at the hands of journeyman Marcos Antonio Aumada in late 2022. He last took the ring in May, earning a competitive decision over Senad Gashi. The co-feature on the card features a heavyweight clash as Joe Joyce returns from a 15-month layoff to face Russia’s Artem Suslenkov in a 10-round bout. Suslenkov carries an undefeated 14-0 record with 9 knockouts.
