    Getting hit with a body shot, then looking to the ref and complaining, is what a guy does when he is looking for a way out.

    What an awesome down to earth guy. Not surprised he and George are bros. Beterbiev has definitely done his best to assimilate in his new home.

    Yeah, you're probably right. Also I wouldn't want Beterbiev to have that impressive of a resume.

    I get it. No worries. I don't know anything about Kadyrov. I'm here for the boxing.

    Damn I feel like you hate all of my favorite boxers except Wilder and Inoue :risas3:. My top 5 favorites are probably Wilder, Inoue, Canelo, Spence, and Beterbiev.

    I would pick Beterbiev over Ward right now but when you have a guy in Ward who is one of the smartest fighters in the game, you can't count him out. And Ward is capable of beating Beterbiev. I just think that he lacks the right hand to keep Beterbiev off of him. Ward used the right hand on Kov, but Kov gave in to bodyshots. Beterbiev imo won't give in.

    I didn't even see your post Kirk

    But it would be interesting for sure

    However, Ward gets battered and stopped in brutal fashion IMO. He ain't got nothing to keep Beterbiev off of him. Beterbiev hits way harder, is physically stronger, takes a better shot, has way better stamina, has a high ring IQ and very underrated boxing ability and his relentless pressure, power and strength would be too much for him. :thumbsup:

    He is from Chechnya, what did you expect? Neither of us know what he really believes. But what we do know is how respectful AB is and how well he conducts himself.

    Maybe you should listen to his post fight interview. Those moron fans booed him and he still treated them and Gvozdyk with respect.

    What a random top 5. I hate two (well, maybe hate is strong, but intensely dislike and would like to see them short-circuited), mildly dislike 1, indifferent to 1, and really like 1. See if everyone can guess!

    That's an interesting array. I like 3 out of your 5. Scratch Canelo and Wilder, although Wilder is OK. Canelo, though, nah. Pure cherry picker in my eyes.

    Yeah because he's cherry picking Kovalev by going up 2 weight classes :risas3: and didn't just fight GGG twice.
