    I think this would make for a real good fight.
    Who do you have and why?

    From these both - Lipinets.But there is one better - Alexander Besputin, with the same manager as Kavaliauskas, but much better(#1 in WBA).

    Besputin is one of the best body punchers I've seen in a long long time

    Egidijus annihilates him.

    I don't think Lipinets is cut out for 147 whereas Egis comes in at 160 + and can really crack with both hands. And he has fast hands too, especially for a legit banger, which for some reason no one seems to mention. But Lipinets is teak-tough and he can take and dish it out.

    I think Sergei has more versatility than Mean Machine and has the better chin of the 2.

    Lipinets would win that one. If what I saw tonight was all that Kava has to offer. Lipinets would beat him fairly decisively.

    Lipinets batters him from one side of the ring to the other. Kavaliauskas is packing glass, which is probably why he's hesitant to go for the KO, even against featherfisted fighters. He's super cautious, and seems to be perpetually stuck in first gear.

    Could also be a case that he had a flat night combined with Robinsons awkwardness and frankly looking to last the distance to me then hollar robbery because he saw the final bell. Seen it dozens of times in my life.

    Naoya Inoue? Errol Spence?

    Both are dedicated top of the chain body punchers...

    Agree. Not disputing that. They have obviously been around longer than Besputin. Maybe I should have clarified
