Quick read
Ivo Baranieski has commented on Bogdan Guskov's decision to decline a short-notice fight with him, expressing understanding of the situation. Baranieski explained that Guskov was scheduled to face Petr Yan, ranked fourth in the division, in what could have been a genuine title contender bout. Being offered an unranked opponent instead makes the rejection unsurprising, according to Baranieski. He praised Guskov's decision as dignified and reasonable, rather than resorting to typical trash talk claiming his opponent is afraid.
