Beterbiev v Yarde

6'2 and 182

The lack of power maybe I don't know. I watch the fights don't get me wrong but I'm just really not that invested in it.

 

Who do you will do better numbers Spence - Crawford or Fury - Joshua? I stand corrected regarding the Bivol - Beterbiev fight.

I honestly don't think Spence - Crawford will do better numbers than Fury - Joshua. Absolutely no chance.

 

The fights i want to see
1 Crawford v Spence
2 Beterbiev v Bivol
3 Taylor v Catterall 2

 

True.

 

Not sexy enough ! I'm sure Skye Nicholson and Ebanie Bridges are below 160 lol.

 

Do you mean in terms of money generated or between two evenly matched/hard to call fight between two top level fighters?

Fury/Usyk would be the more lucrative fight I’d imagine. I’d watch it but I doubt it would be that competitive.

Fair enough. Personally I find the lower weights far more viewer friendly. They tend to be more technically interesting, both lads are usually busier and there’s less attempts to tie each other up.

A lot of the time the heavy’s/cruisers it’s a lot more cautious. For obvious reasons, and that’s kind of the point, it can sometimes look like a couple of **** heads at 11pm on a Saturday night.

 

Happy enough to see Beterbiev live on these shores tbf, Yarde gets levelled though…

 

Agreed they're way more technical and it's easier on the eye because it looks "cleaner". But the constant threath of that one punch knockout edges it for me. Absolute gladiators.

 

The fact is the majority of people disagree with you

 

Same for me. Not usually interested in much below middleweight - unless there's a hype train or some other investment in it.

I remember taping some boxing in the 80s on overnight ITV, watching it the next night only to find it was straw weight boxing from the far east. They could have gone 30 rounds and there wouldn't be a stoppage!

 

Just joining the latest phase of this discussion to drop one name

Naoye Inoue

If you like your KO's, your brutal and ruthless finishes and you like seeing a guy with one thing on his mind he's the best in the business right now and for the last few years.

 

The VAST majority.
