    Beterbiev would hurt him very badly

    Man Artur has an even better chin than I thought too. Took Gvozdyk’s right and hardly budged. Gotta tip the cap to him.

    He’d knock the PED’s out of Canelo.

    Kovalev-Beterbiev is a 50-50 fight, Kovalev is better at range than Gvodzyk and has much more on his jab/straight right to keep Beter honest.

    No it's not. Maybe 3 or 4 years ago it was, but now I can easily predict it that Kovalev will quit after a body shot around the 7th round.

    But a softer body than Gvozdyk, which Beterbiev will immediately target......

    I can see Beter stopping Kovalev with a bodyshot, sure. I can also see Kov stopping Beter with a headshot or just outboxing him over 12.

    Understandably so. And Im ok with that. Hes not a light heavy. The only reason the Kova fight is exciting is the active wondering of how much Kova has left.

    The Kova fight is risky enough. I don't expect Canelo to take on the best light heavyweight on the planet. That wouldn't be risky, it would simply be stupid.

    Kovalev will take care of that for Beterbiev.

    " weight classes exist for a reason" they said.

    Damn man. Who knows I learned not to doubt ginger **** again

    Meh. Youre just the fan that wants to see at what depth every fighter drowns at. And tries using teddy atlas style delusions to dress it up.
    No thanks.

    If Canelo did the imbecilic and fought AB but did the unthinkable and actually pulled off the upset of the year and won by some miracle, fans like youd be next calling for him to go to cruiser and saying hes 'not daring to be greater' if he doesnt.

    These guys are putting their careers and lives on the line when they fight. What you are suggesting isnt brave or courageous, its simply stupid.
