    Gvozdyk?
    Bivol?

    Kovalev is fighting Yarde next. Im sure he would or will do if he wins.

    Beterbeef steamrolls Bivol.
    I worry for KRUSHER, nowadays i dont think KRUSHER can keep him off.

    Gvozdyk is probably the one who can nail the Steamroller, but it would be a 50/50.

    So dangerous this man!

    Not sure.

    I actually think all 3 of those can beat beterbiev with the right game plan

    The Nail vs Beterbiev would be ideal and the winner gets krusher

    Bivol was talking about dropping down to super middle awhile back so not sure about him

    Is Beterbiev still ducking Calzaghe?

    I can’t work out if the browne vs pascal fight will either be an epic slugfest or a real stinker?

    Kovalev. If he doesn't fight or after/if he beats Yarde.

    He would take out Bivol late but its a toss up between Gvozdyk and Krusher.

    A prime Kovalev would shatter his chin as he marches forward. Todays Krusher is still good enough to land hard shots from range. The long straight 1-2 shots are the tools to beat Beterbiev.

    Hot Rod made the mistake of hooking with a hooker and punching with a puncher. Kovalev has the right style to beat him or even stop him. Beterbievs chin is suspect i reckon.

    Beterbiev is approaching 35 where rapid decline can sometimes occur. Personally I think he's already declined but not to the point where he wouldn't have a real shot at beating the trio of Kovalev, Bivol and Gvozdyk if he were to meet any of the 3. Needs to happen soon though. It's just a shame he's just reaching this moment now. He should have been here 4-5 years ago after KO'ing Cloud. Good old boxing politics and promotional issues.

    If I was Beterbiev i would have sent the Chechen mafia into Yvon Michel's office as soon as he started messing around.

    Kovalev is even more past prime and less fresh.

    Kovalevs more of a boxer so I'm not sure I agree. So much of Beterbievs style relies upon durability.
