    Excellent!

    Beterbiev by KO, although Barrera is a quality fighter.

    I'm so relieved this fight is set. Both fighters are warriors, such a breath of fresh air to see them both willing to face off.

    This is a great fight... Both are ranked in the WBC's top 10, meanwhile their champion is looking to fight another bum before disappearing for another year. This is a better fight than any of Super Pimps title fights. Respect to both men for taking it.

    I'd favour these 2 over any one of Pimp's title defences, maybe even over the version of Chad Dawson that he fought.

    I'm not all that impressed by Beterbiev.

    At this stage I'd favour both, or at least Beterbiev, over the Pimp himself!

    Might be a little premature for that, but Stevenson is definetly beatable and this fight should give us a better idea how good Beterbiev is. :thumbsup:

    You know what? I'm going against the grain and picking Sullivan for the upset, late TKO.

    I'm still not sold on Beterbiev's 12 round conditioning. Sullivan's got to make it past the early stages, which is no guarantee, but I think he can pull it off.

    I know, it's just that the Pimp is getting old and hasn't fought anyone good for ages.

    Having a solid chin is a must have against Beterbiev, and Barerra doesn't possess such a thing. Lets not forget that Artur also comes from a good amateur program.

    I honestly don't see how the Cuban can pull this off. But much respect to him for accepting this challenge. We need more Barreras in boxing.
