Kenny Kost (13-3, 6 ko's) will headline the boxing portion of this Saturdays boxing/mma fight card at the Myth Nightclub in Maplewood, MN. Kost who has been staying more active in the ring as of late, will face 25 year old Puerto Rican Jorge Alberto Gonzalez (5-2, 0 ko's). Not much is known about Gonzalez but word around town is that he had a successful amateur career and possesses quick hands.
With the fight only days away, MinnesotaBoxing.com caught up to Kost at the WBL boxing gym during a workout to discuss the upcoming fight and also his thoughts on whether he thinks a fight with Minnesota's other top Middleweights will happen in the future.

I understand opponents have changed for this fight. Jeff Osborne, now Jorge Alberto Gonzalez, and a few in between. Talk about the opponent changes leading up to this fight.
I have had a few different opponents thrown at me for this one. It seemed like most of them were light heavyweights and bigger guys though and I have been walking around lately at 162 pounds. I am on track to be fighting at 156 or 158 for fights right now. Gonzalez was the only guy that wanted to fight and 160 was as low as he would go. Everyone else wanted to fight at 168 which is just too heavy now.

Talk about Gonzalez a little then. What can you tell us about him.
I don't really know a whole lot about him. I hear he was a really good amateur. I hear he has some speed and he can move pretty well. That is about it though!

There are some potentially big fights here in Minnesota. A fight with Minnesota middleweight champion Anthony Bonsante has been discussed but it seems money has been the road block. Will that fight happen?
Yeah, that is the fight I want. I know Tony (Grygelko) is going to try to make it happen around May or June. I hear Bonsante has been back in the gym, trying to get more active so hopefully it will happen.

A Vanda rematch has been discussed. Also, a fight with Andy Kolle seems logical considering you both are coming off a win over Vanda...
Andy Kolle is a fight I would like to see happen if the Bonsante fight doesn't happen. I guess I don't know if they want to take the fight but if they do then we can fight. If they don't then whatever.

There have been rumors floating around that you possibly have something lined up out of state also. Can you talk about that?
Well they were talking about having us go down and spar with Hector Camacho Jr. They wanted Jesse (Garza) to go down and help train him for a fight coming up so we might be down there doing that at the end of April, maybe fight on the undercard to Camacho's fight.
