  • Gavril is best known for dropping David Benavidez in their first encounter, which the Equadorian won by split decision. Interestingly, one of the judges scored the round 10-9, in which the Romanian scored a knockdown!

      • KP regardless if Benevidez was hurt or not, official scoring if a fighter gets knocked down and it is counted as a knockdown! It is a 10-8 round officially. Those are the professional official rules !!! And I like Benevidez by the way.

    • The Ecuadorian from moms side , Mexican from Dad side and American born David was dominating the round that he got drop in.He was 21 years old,and yes,this boxing and we will se fighter’s get hurt , rocked and even drop and some end up getting knocked out and others end up in worse situations. Respect’s to all who enter the chamber of truth.

      • In nearly every fight I see, every fighter who scores a knockdown is awarded with a 10-8 round, even if it’s a flash knockdown.
