    Would be impressive if he did. Brahmer has a solid set of whiskers.

    Fonfara, Alvarez and Oosthuizen are all under Haymon.
    So indeed we will see Beter fight 1 of these guys pretty soon :bbb

    Braehmer, Pascal, Hopkins all have great chins but Beterbiev hits too hard for a LHW. I'd pick Kovalev and maybe Pascal to outbox him but he crushes the rest.

    True. Beterbiev would be better off targeting Hopkins belt line than his chin. If 'Zaggers proved anything, it's that Hopkins is sporting a glass belt line. :yep

    Anything below the belly button and down Hopkins goes grabbing those gr apes like a woman in labour

    Maybe he really is an alien if he has conkers just under his belly button? :think

    Beterbiev hits probably harder but I think Kovalev has better overall boxing skills. We might have the prospect of the fight of the decade.

    Kovalev is extremely overrated in my opinion

    I can't believe only a few picked Beterbiev over Kovalev

    Kovalev's power and offense are good but his defense is terrible and hes probably sporting a glass chin

    Beterbiev has the better power and offense with better defense as well

    If this fight is ever made (ie Kovalev stops running :lol:), it'll be a mismatch

    I'm confident of that

    I'm with you, in the minority. I love Kovalev's skills, timing and aggression but I think we have yet to see anything close to Artur's best performance. He KO'ed Campillo like he didn't give a fukk, as in "come on, next...".

    The fact that he's already in Kovalev's head amuses me... Beterbiev wasn't scared to engage and push Usyk back, I would think he's capable of beating a man he already beat in the ams in Sergey.

    Beterbiev-Kovalev is hugely interesting. Any other match up, I got Artur inside 6. If it's someone like Tommy Gun or Fonfara, inside 3 it is.

    Kovalev might be closer he knocks out the rest (maybe UD Hopkins)

    :yep

    Hes being fast tracked because his management are confident in his abilities

    Kovalev is lucky he's got Duva to protect him :lol:
