    You can tell he's gunning for Kovalev.

    Against Page, he won the NABA, NABO and IBF North American titles.

    If that's not lining himself up for a WBA-WBO-IBF title shot, I don't know what is. :lol:




    Who am I kidding, unless Haymon makes peace with HBO that fight is not happening...

    Beterbiev by KO, seems inevitable.

    Fonfara has a solid chin, but his defense is poor.

    I see Beterbiev stopping him.

    Beterbiev also works the body well. I think he has a good jab to the body.

    He'll break Fonfara down and stop him.

    Good fight. For me at least, I will probably have a good grasp on where Beterbiev stands after Fonfarra fight.

    Fonfara may stun Beterbiev a few time, byt Arturr KO's him in 7.

    yeah, it's a pretty stock answer for any Beterbiev thread


    Beterbiev v Godzilla?

    Beterbiev by KO

    Le prochain événement de GYM à MTL devrait avoir lieu le 2 ou 3 octobre prochain. Possiblement Beterbiev pour la position de no 1 à l'IBF.



    ...Beterbiev to fight for the #1 IBF spot (after Mohammedi gets destroyed by Kovalev) early October.

    It'll be Fonfara, he's #6 and Artur is #2.

    Pointless fight for Fonfara. He earned his titleshot. I'd see him with Kovalev or Stevenson rematch.

    Fonfara is tough, but not that though.

    He's a Haymon guy, as is Beterbiev.

    With Stevenson on the way out in a year or two, Big Al probably sees more potential in Beterbiev than Fonfara. So pointless or not, he might still have to get in the ring with him because money talks.

    Stevenson is looking for a soft touch in Haiti in September, and Kovalev is HBO/Main Events which does not gel with the Haymon plan.
