    I came close.:sisi1 But I figured he'd do like he did against Kovalev, hurt him, follow up, but not be able to get Beterbiev out of there.

    But I gave context, so why would I mention Johnson when I specifically talked about every fight Beterbiev has SINCE then.

    Gotcha. I hear you there. Plus Beterbiev did seem to have Sergey’s number in the ams. Who the hell knows. Would have been a war.

    AB would watch videos I'd assume and he'd incorporate what Gorilla did, minus the south paw, plus what Canelo did. I can't see Smith doing anything, or adapting anything that would trouble AB.

    Buatsi didn't beat Spider Richards legitimately. Amateur pedigree means **** all of you're a glass cannon and don't have the power to keep a KO artist off of you. Yarde was walking through hellfire and brimstone and getting to Beterbiev tonight. Buatsi's shots will feel like pebbles by comparison. You really aren't that bright.

    True. But hopefully he's got a bit more time before that happens. Povetkin was 40+ when he finally couldn't hang at the top level. Only time will tell.

    You guys need to know by now that Beterbiev and the Chechen Warlord watch fight tapes together and plan strategies for each opponent.

    Beterbiev isn't that hard to keep at range, Gvozdyk did it successfully, as did Yarde tonight. Callum has a decent jab, and a hellacious right. I doubt Beterbiev will be all that eager to bum rush him either.

    :lol: I actually had a bad feeling for weeks that Beterbiev might lose. I knew Yarde's speed would cause this version of him a lot of problems and there was just something in the air that was telling me it was going to be a lot tougher for Beterbiev than most thought it would be. The fact that it was over here in the UK was huge advantage for Yarde tonight.

    He was a shell of himself against Canelo. Any ideas?

    Got to learn how to pick with your head and not with your heart. At least.. If you're actually seriously predicting fights. It's nice not having to worry about prediction leagues and gambling(for the most part) those really impact the ability to being able to enjoy fights for a lot of people.

    These fights need to be on neutral grounds. Too much corruption in the home countries.

    So, I guess you were expecting everyone to remember Beterbiev has had exactly 6 fights since Johnson, who you did not mention right? It was intentionally misleading, and you know it.
