Russell cited his purses, telling RingTV.com in 2017: "“We’re businessman, no matter what the situation is. “The objective is you want to have financial stability no matter what it is that your occupation is. So I think [holding out] the smart thing to do on our end.
Nyambayar is a quality opponent: Per BadLeftHook: "Russell-Nyambayar is a fight I really think you don’t want to sleep on. Gary’s a terrific talent, always has been, but Nyambayar is one of the better opponent’s he’s faced — at least on paper."

"A former Olympic silver medalist from Mongolia, “King Tug” has some skills and could press Russell in a way he hasn’t been since the first half of the JoJo Diaz fight in 2018, and that wasn’t an easy night for Russell. "
BoxRec Rankings: Russell is No. 2 in the featherweight division (Josh Warrington is No. 1); Nyambayar is unranked because he hasn't fought in over a year (Jan 2019)

Russell Jr vs Nyambayar PREDICTION

Bookmaker:
Nyambayar hasn’t fought in over a year and his overall experience level is far less than Russell Jr. so, this should be a win for Russell Jr., but I am expecting the price to be too high for a serious wager. This has all the looks of a bout where the two fighters look to land big shots, so a knockout is likely. I will simply play the rounds to go under the total.

Boxing Pick: Gary Russell Jr. by knockout in the second round and the rounds to go under the total
