    I love seeing a show of sportsmanship between Beterbiev and Gvosdyk no hate going into the fight no hate after. true class act. people don't bring stuff like this up often enough. but, he was for sure not a sore loser.

    He admits that Artur was the better Biev that night

    Prograis the same last night.The public ain’t daft,they can sniff sincerity out and those two 50/50 fights had it in spades.

    Nothing manly about quitting.

    I can tell you 10000000% the hobbit believes he won, ffs he boxed the club fighters ears off

    Gvozdyk probably can't remember the beating he took it was that bad

    Gvodzyk was winning until Beterbiev's sheer physicality wore him down.

    In the end it's all just a sport.

    Lol coming from a guy who called his beloved Canelo Lil Cinnamon I’ll just put this down to more delusion on your part.

    There isn't a 175 pounder born from their mother who could withstand Beterbiev's sheer physicality for 12 rounds. Gvozdyk being able to do so for 10 rounds whilst taking plenty of savage right hands upstairs and down in the process is a testament to his toughness and chin because most mortal men succumb much sooner than that.

    You may even be right. He looks like a smaller Max Baer that can actually box, in some ways. I suspect that he migth be the guy to unify LHW again. If Bivol can't straight up outbox him that is. Unfortunately I give Kovalev approximately only a 10% chance of beating Beterbiev at this point of his career.

    Sorry I forgot about this. I often log in on my phone and after checking my alerts I completely forget to reply to them when I log in on my PC later (no way I'm typing **** on my phone lol)

    I think Bivol can cause him problems with his speed of hand and foot and his quick movement in and out of range. However, I think Beterbiev is just too strong and powerful for him and he'll overwhelm him in the back end of the fight.

    Prime Kovalev vs Beterbiev would've been an absolutely mouthwatering match up.

    But if Canelo wins he will hold that belt ransom like a boss. "I'm at 160 now, what can you trade for this belt? "

    Beterbiev hits like a heavyweight

    Too strong

    Too much will

    But always respectful

    Beterbiev vs Johnson was a classic if you ever need a stiffy

    Beterbiev would never stop Tarver. It wouldn't even remotely be on the table.
