"We were in the same gym for a number of years but obviously where I was on the GB squad we sort of missed each other in the gym," Cordina told Sky Sports after showing off his skills during a public workout at York Hall on Wednesday.
"He's a tough fighter, six foot, big, strong but you're going to need a little bit more than just being big, fit and strong to beat me."
Gwynne (11-0, KOs 1) has claimed the winner will have bragging rights in Wales but Cordina (9-0, KOs 7) dismissed the fight as having an added edge for being a local derby.
"No, my goal has always been the same to get to a world title and he's just someone in the way," Cordina said.
