    Since Beterbiev looks that is old, good fight might be in Matchroom vs Buatsi.
    To start warm up. Not beatup of old Kovalev ( when I had saw his fight vs Yarde, in 2 rounds he get absolute hell and if Yarde was not tired and a bit gassed, he had been finished in distance by noname outside of U.K in Yarde. ).

    cos he doesn't have origin from U.S, I do know casual westerners flowchart used against european and especially EE boxers in forums.

    If no, then weak era and weak boxer/ division.

    Hall of fame.. absolutely

    Atg... no...sadly..I'd say the skill level is absolutely there and h2h he'd be a nightmare for alot of middleweights in history.... But just not enough names on the résumé..some his fauit..alot not...ducked to ridiculous lengths earlier on in his career... Just if he coulda got cotto,Martinez,Sturm around 2012 onwards that would've done wonders for his resume n pushed him onto bigger things

    And it pains me the pirog fight didn't happen

    He beat the "Mayweather" of this generation in Canelo. He doesn't need any more wins.

    I can't think of any other top Middleweight of this era he could have fought, apart from BJS who ducked him a few years back, he even said in an IFL interview he wanted to wait for GGG to age a bit before fighting him.

    I don't think Beterbiev is old (yet) - but he starts slow and can be caught early. That is why I think he would not fight Meng - who tries to end fights very, very quickly.

    Butasi would be an excellent oppont for Canelo - which is why he will never fight him. Canelo will stay at 168 lbs and make fights against fighters with no chance to *hurt* him. I think that's BJS (who can outbox him but has no chance to get a decision) and Caleb Plant. Then he fights an ancient GGG for a third time and then asks fighters to box him at weights they have no business to be fighting at.

    His best win is over the man who already gets beaten. He was schooled by mayweather and lara. Just deal with it.

    He did beat canelo..I have him holding two wins over him.... but history books aren't gonna say that.

    I won't **** on GGG for not moving up in weight..it's not for everyone but how good would his standing look all time if on his resume he had

    Cotto,Sturm,Martinez,BJ's,canelo (official) pirog pavlik maybe before he slid ... And I'd have loved to see him fight froch n ward

    With you I will deal quickly: looks that you are old time, years ago registered backup account for another user.
    2014 th reg date and 9 posts.

    I really will not bother with you: at first you are wrong that I should deal with something. You even do have such simple thinking like you might mark me as GGG fan who should deal with something. Entertainment level cos you think you know about me, LoL.

    Deal with real life and stuff that I don't care about western noise called HOF or U.S fans opinions in forums if they are dumb.

    Don't try tu put me in this stupid conversation between western vs eastern clash. I'm not even western, i'm from Poland.

    A quick question: How many fights Canelo honestly won: vs lara, trout, cotto

    Buterelo also had been outboxed by blown up cherry picked welterweight and praised during this time like he had won rounds LOL, until Buterelo Horsemeat KOed his oppoent. I do not have any doubts that buterelo also had won this fight on cards if fight was the same till end of 12 th round.
    BUTERELO.:p
    Boring horsemeat ginger.
