    That's too high.

    Cloud is very durable (he's never been knocked down) and Beterbiev has only 5 fights and 11 pro rounds. He's never gone past 4 rounds.

    Cloud is a bad matchup Beterbiev, I would be more confident if he were facing Dawson or even Stevenson.

    Cloud can't deal with crafty guys like B-Hop, but Beterbiev is the kind of boxer who'll stand in front of his opponents and tries to outslug them. Cloud has one-punch power.

    Does anybody know when the cloud fight will probably start?, i'm going to get some sleep first and have no interest in the undercard. Cheers.

    It's scheduled to start in 2 hours and 45 minutes but it could be earlier depending on how quickly the undercard fights take to finish.

    I've just had my nap so I'm good. :D

    They've just announced on BOXNATION that they changed the start time to 1:30 am (fight starts at 2:00 am now apparently).:patsch

    Not too high I think.
    I see this as a 65/35 fight for Beterbiev, and I guess a lot of people see it like that or closer.
    That doesn't mean that it should be reflected in the poll. Cause if every single person here would see it as close as 55/45 in Beterbiev's favor, they would still all vote for Artur in the poll.

    I think I heard Bunce say that but I'm not a 100% sure. It was scheduled for a 3:00 am start on their website earlier on but now they've pushed it forwards. I just thought I'd let you know so you don't end up missing it. Best thing to do is wait till 1:30 when the program is supposed to start. They should tell us when Beterbiev and Cloud are due out then.

    No worries. I hate it when they switch it up at the last minute. :twisted:

    Maybe it will start at 3:00am after all, but then again there's no point risking missing it if not.

    I'll watch the UFC tomorrow. :D:good

    I'll try and watch both tonight, i might have to miss one or 2 of the UFC fights if the Cloud fight starts after 3AM. I'm a much bigger Boxing fan anyway.

    My Son is obsessed with UFC (he is training and fighting in tournaments already), especially the Irish Fella who is fighting tonight. he Met him at after the show in Ireland this year, i've never seen him fight but he has told me all about him and that is the main reason why i'll be watching that with him tonight.
