    On the belt isn’t low, as Roy said ‘Those aren’t low blows’. That was just Kovalev dipping out because he couldn’t take a body shot.

    If people don't see Lomachenko or Floyd like footwork they automatically assume that fighter has poor footwork.

    The shot that prompted the ref to give him a warning and tell him not to hit behind the head

    1:20 of second round.

    He was talking about going toe to toe with Beterbiev.

    He knows how powerful Beterbiev is, which is exactly why he will win

    Fair point.

    I'll rephrase it in 'autistic':

    'Pretty rare for someone to be 'knocked down four times' without touching the canvas in the way most people perceive being knocked down which generally involves being put off their feet in such a way a glove or knee isn't enough to prevent a complete loss of balance that sees something other than a glove, knee or feet in contact with the canvas for a reasonably prolonged period of time.'

    The battle of keyboard warriors on this thread is more competitive than the fight was!

    The only negative thing I can say about Beterbiev is that I wish he would trim his hair and beard. I don't like the Neanderthal look but maybe that is part of his persona.

    He’s a devout Muslim so I think he’s required to have a beard.

    Ramirez has MORE than redeemed himself after his terrible debut.

    What a great set up we have with bivol dominating canelo and beterbiev annihilating smith this fight is awesome

    Im most impressed with beterbievs short punches. He does not wind up or arm them out, he just fires them short and compact but they are lethal. I expected beterbiev to win, i didnt expect it to be in 6 minutes

    Just a huge gulf in class

    Neanderthal means manly not gay shaved chests.

    I kinda have the opposite approach and see it more as a confident i did what i expected to do and dont need to celebrate i find it chilling

    What annoyed me more was the lack of the crowd you could hear a pin drop in there after Smith lost
