What do Beterbiev, Kovalev and Golovkin have in common?

    The three are all from the Russian school of boxing which means they are very good at offensive brawling, but very poor in defense,
    The other thing these three have in common is that to date, all three have only faced lower B level competition where they appear to be better than they actually are.

    The third thing they have in common are that they are all Russians who have migrated to the Mecca of boxing, America. This decision by all three will make them better boxers than if the had stayed in Russia.

    Kovalev and Beterbiev would KO Ward through his guard. Barker Martinez style.

    Ward would beat Kovalev. He'd probably beat GGG too because of the size difference.

    Beterbiev could be the real deal though. We'll have to wait and see.

    Other than an aged Hopkins, Andre Ward is the only Yank who is any good from HW down to MW, that's why we see these threads.

    He's all they've got in the big boy divisions and the guy doesn't even fight. :lol:

    This tells how empty SMW is since Calzaghe cleaned up and retired and Ward just fought his leftovers, for a poster to mention a 6 fight novice as an opponent for Ward :patsch.
    Who knows if ward would beat or lose to any of them, I doubt we will find out as Ward is not moving up to LHW and the other is a MW and I doubt Ward will move down.
    Seems many note what Ward could/would do, but Ward isnt going to go to LHW, didnt fight Bute, didnt fight Dirrell, hasnt beaten a top undefeated fighter, hasnt beaten an undefeated world champ

    How many babies have been born and learned to walk and talk since Ward's last meaningful fight?

    It's sad but true and it's a pity he is so damn talented and could beat Froch in UK but his ego refuses. He thinks he would draw more than Froch-Groves 2........
