    Would the Welsh Dragon have the skills, speed and chin to beat The Steamroller?

    Dangerous fight for Super Joe. But I think he overwhelms Artur with his volume and speed while getting up off the deck a couple of times to win a close UD.

    I need to see more of Beterbievs arm pits first. Too early to put him in with that sexy Welsh *******...

    Calzaghe an ATG. Too much volume,angles, and movement.

    UD, or late TKO for 2001 version of Super Joe

    I think Artur's strength & style would actually take the wind out of Joe's sails.

    An ancient Hopkins and shot to pieces RJJ dropped Joe very early. Artur would manhandle his face off if he was there instead.

    How's it going?

    We only saw Joe at LHW twice, but as you know, I think he could have spent his career there.

    I like the look of Artur, and I hope he can stay busy over the next few years.

    At this stage, I'd have to have favoured Joe. I think his speed would have given Artur a lot of trouble. But my opinion might change in the future.

    What do you think of an Artur vs Sergey match up?

    That was a semi-shot Calzaghe and he still schooled them. Prime Joe is a completely different animal. Joe UD.

    Beterbiev would have steamrolled White Rhino Joe

    Joe could come back now and would give him problems. Calzaghe in his prime beats him comfortably

    Beterbiev's beaten nobodies and hasn't looked that impressive doing it, it would be Jeff Lacy all over again.

    Not bad mate, thanks, hope things are good with you

    Artur vs Sergey is all about distance. Can Artur close the gap against such a brutal puncher and destroy him on the inside?

    Such a barbaric clash of styles

    I'd love to see it.

    I'm also getting fed up of only seeing Stevenson once per year.

    Prime Joe wasn't a LHW, he was a SMW.

    Does Chickenson even still exist? He's got to be amongst the most irrelevant long time belt holder of all times. Any of the Big 4 EEs would completely destroy him
