    I'm sure you're right and it's the same with Canelo where the money outweighs the risk.He doesn't have the big knockout record and so it's only the loss that one fears.
    Guys like Golovkin,Kovalev and Beterbiev are no joke and in their prime wasn't worth it imo

    Yup. Look at Khabib. He couldnt care less about the money. These guys are shooting for greatness above all else.

    He has the right mindset. He doesn’t desire for much and thus has been financially set for a while now.

    Except that wouldnt be pulling a Canelo

    Canelo is a prime fighter that moved up and fought a clearly past it fighter thats been stopped multiple times in a fight he was the odds favorite to win comfortably in.

    Golovkin is clearly past prime, would be moving up to fight a still near peak undefeated Beterbiev in a fight he would be universally expected to get ragdolled in.

    Its apples and oranges.

    Team Beterbiev hid from the Krusher while he was razing the light heavyweight landscape.

    Someone tried to make this fight happen a while back, didn´t they?
    I can´t remember who turned tail.

    Yup, it was Beterbiev who turned tail back in 2015:

    I can´t really blame him all that much, but it was an missed opportunity.

    **** Beterbiev and any other fighter who supports or has ties to scumbag warlords like Chechen leader Kadyrov,who has been responsible for so many murders and tortures including those reporting on the attrocities.
    Beterbiev is obviously a beast but he is far from unbeatable and I wouldn't be surprised if most of the fighters knocked back the title shot because of how low the offers were to fight him.

    You are reaching again making baseless accusations. What credible sources do you have to link him to such atrocities. It is so obvious because you are a fan boy of McGregor and Diaz that you hate Beterbiev because he is from the same parts of the world as Khabib. Typical hypocritical BS coming from one of the biggest emotional wrecks on this site. Beterbiev has proven to be the best fighter at light heavyweight and is regarded as a P4P champion.

    :risas3:I called you a hypocrite and 1 of the sites biggest emotional wrecks yesterday along with other things which like always you've chosen to recycle word for word in a typical pathetic response twisting what I said.
    I never linked him directly to the atrocities but anybody that chooses to support or connect themselves in any way to Kadyrov needs to be called out on it, his connection to Kadyrov is well known and has been reported on many times along with photos of Kadyrov with several fighters.
    As usual you are totally clueless and are just trolling every time I post or your in total denial probably because your a fan of his and choose to bury your head in the sand and talking absolute ****.

    Oh he needs to be called on it does he? Well good job homie calling him out on it here at ESB that will show him. So there are pictures with him? Well that settles it, the ring magazine light heavyweight champion is a warlord sympathizer.
    And no I am not a fan of Beterbiev I was going for the Nail to beat him but I will not make ridiculous accusations linking him with murder and tortures just because I don't like the guy. Get a grip on reality bro and stop trying to play a tough guy like Nate Diaz.
