    Beterbiev is probably stonger than most HWs, he might even be draining himself to make 175.

    Its a pick 'em fight they both have the power to hurt one another and I wouldn't write Yunieski, but if I had to bet my money's on Beterbiev.

    It was a story about Kovalev a few days ago about his possible fight in Russia and they could not find a siutable tv date.Thats why his next fight gonna be 2016. No opponent was mentioned . Yunieski was never offered a Kovalev -fight !

    Yes he was! I have not been a member long enough to post links but he turned it down and will turn Beterbiev down as well.

    He's too small to be a HW today.

    Amateur boxing is different.

    He walks around at 190lb so he is a natural cruisweweight. Heavy heavy handed though.

    Look at his facebook page. He is bouncing a medicine ball off a wall like it is a ping pong ball

    Great fight! Shaping up to be a good card if it's on the DeGale-Bute one
