    Maybe.. but kova's jabs jab are way stiffer and the right hands are lethal.. I'm not 100% convinced of Beterbiev's chin.

    I actually think Bivol might match up pretty well with Beterbiev. Bivol vs Beterbiev is definitely the fight I’m wanting to see now at light heavyweight.

    Perhaps, but Kovalev is a harder puncher than Gvozdyk. Kovalev of five years ago would beat Beterbiev, but maybe not now.

    And yes, Beterbiev would gradually break Bivol down and stop him late.

    Gvozdyk hits really hard and he was throwing hard all night tonight whereas usually he throws a lot of light shots and slips the heavier artillery in between the lighter shots. There was no pity pats from him tonight.

    I disagree with Serge post above.. I thought Gvozdyk was fighting timidly.. he had more success when he assertively backing Beterbiev up.

    I agree, he was doing some good work, and maybe could have started breaking Beterbiev down had he continued. His body seemed to start succumbing to Beterbiev's power though, while Beterbiev seemed to be absorbing his shots with little issue.
