Blue-chip light heavyweight prospect Oleksandr Gvozdyk has been added to the HBO PPV card headlined by the junior welterweight world title unification bout between Terence Crawford and Viktor Postol on July 23 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Top Rank announced on Friday. Chad Kelly Broncos Jersey .Gvozdyk (10-0, 10 KOs), a 2012 Olympic bronze medalist from Ukraine and one of the top prospects in boxing, will take on Tommy Karpency in a scheduled 10-round bout.Gvozdyk, 29, was supposed to box Robert Berridge in an untelevised bout on Top Ranks card on July 16 in Lancaster, California, but he was moved to the pay-per-view card a week later against Karpency, a better-caliber opponent than Berridge.The opening on the pay-per-view telecast came about because super middleweight titlist Gilberto Zurdo Ramirez tore the tendon around the knuckle of his middle finger on his right hand during a sparring session on Tuesday, forcing his first defense against Dominik Britsch to be canceled. That fight was supposed to be the co-feature on the July 23 card.So the vacant featherweight world title bout between Oscar Valdez (19-0, 17 KOs) and Matias Adrian Rueda (26-0, 23 KOs) was elevated to the co-feature position, welterweights Jose Benavidez Jr. (24-0, 16 KOs) and Francisco Chia Santana (24-4-1, 12 KOs) will meet in a 10-rounder and Gvozdyk-Karpency will open the broadcast.Karpency, a 30-year-old southpaw from Adah, Pennsylvania, has faced several quality opponents, including in a pair of light heavyweight world title bouts. Two fights ago, last September, Karpency got knocked out in the third round by world champion Adonis Stevenson, and in 2012 he lost a shutout decision to then-titleholder Nathan Cleverly.In October 2014, Karpency scored the biggest win of his career, a 10-round split decision in a major upset against faded former light heavyweight world champion Chad Dawson.Top Rank wants to measure Gvozdyks performance against how Karpency (26-5-1, 15 KOs) did with other quality opponents while also getting him his first major television exposure.My matchmakers say this is a real test for Gvozdyk, Top Rank promoter Bob Arum told ESPN.com. Karpency was the best opponent we could get on short notice, but we were told he was training for another fight. So this is a good test for Gvozdyk to prove to us that he is as good as we think he is.Ramirez (34-0, 24 KOs), meantime, underwent what Top Rank and adviser Sean Gibbons termed successful surgery to repair his torn tendon on Friday in Los Angeles. According to surgeon Dr. Steven Shin, Ramirez is expected to be out of action for five months. Jake Butt Youth Jersey . 8 Iowa State on Saturday, sending the Cyclones to their third consecutive loss.

The series started out on Overpass, Astralis initial map pick, and on cue the team quickly jumped out to a 5-0 lead. That seemed to evaporate all at once, however, as SK Gaming put together their own rally to keep the score close at halftime. Unfortunately for SK, Astralis had a great second half thanks to Andreas Xyp9x H?jsleth, who rallied his team to a map win 16-11. H?jsleth would put together an impressive 52/35 KD and 124.4 ADR in the two-game series.The second map of the best-of-three series may have been the most surprising result of the tournament as SK Gaming lost on Train for just the third time in the last 28 times theyve played on the map. Perhaps more surprising, Astralis put together a commanding 12-3 at halftime, annihilating SK on their supposed best map. A late rally fueled by Gabriel FalleN Toledos impressive movement and AWPing helped the Brazilians earn seven consecutive round wins on the defense to get back into the game. But that wouldnt last long as Astralis Markus Kjaerbye Kj?rbye and Nicolai device Reedtz had a huge hand in taking the last two rounds away from SK to cllaim the map 16-12 and the series 2-0.

Tarik tarik Celik led the team, accumulating a remarkable 25/9 KD followed by a shattering 125.1 ADR.The second map would get a bit more interesting as each team seemed to trade runs of momentum in the first half. Even in a 10-5 hole to start the second half of Map 2, FaZe Clan would simply not give up, earning five consecutive defensive round wins to nearly knot up the map. Luckily for OpTic, their economy was at full strength for a much-needed buy round, a brilliant strategic move that allowed them to earn two round wins, extending their slight lead. Once again, though, FaZe wouldnt back down as they rallied to win the next two rounds. That was the end of the road, however, as OpTics Will RUSH Wierzba came up big in the final three rounds to close out the map 16-12 and the series 2-0.With the win, OpTic Gaming will advance to face Astralis in the Grand Final on Saturday.
