    After Barrera pulled out, Beterbiev and his team have been busy to find a new opponent for the April IBF 21 eliminator bout, but needless to say that it's been pretty hard to find another sacrificial lamb.

    The IBF was already willing to just give the #1 spot by default, but then Germany's light hitting Enrico Koelling (23-1) and somehow rated #5 by the IBF, has stepped up to the challenge.
    At least Beterbiev has an opponent now, so he can go a couple of rounds to shred some ring rust.

    Sauerland has the money to put it on one of his cards. I wouldn't mind seeing Beterbiev fight in Europe.

    Excellent. This works out pretty well. Beterbiev will keep busy, take the number 1 spot and he will be in a title shot by the end of the year.

    You reckon Ward will take the rematch?

    I doubt it

    And even if he does, and wins, he retires there and then

    Not a chance in hell he's fighting the animal that is Beterbiev

    Kovalev Beterbiev might be on the cards within the year.... and what a disgustingly brutal fight that is

    Who?

    Man id really like to see Beterbiev fight Roy Jones.

    He needs to fight a crafty veteran before taking a title shot.

    Marvel and 20th Century Fox should do a Wolverine reboot and cast Beterbiev. Artur looks more Wolverine than Hugh Jackman.
