Beterbiev Vs Smith

I don't often get them right but I saw this coming a mile off

Plank got spanked

 

That’s the thing, I’m not really a huge fan of him. Just really fancied him.

 

The good news for Smith is he can still have a turf fight with Yarde that will do business.

 

Beterbiev is a scary man.

Him, Usyk, Inoue and Loma are some of the only elite throwbacks in boxing right now. All solid, humble warriors.

 

Same here mate I'm not a fan of Smith as a fighter either really I just thought Beterbiev might have become shot in the past year whereas he actually looked far better than he did a year ago.

I'm a natural pessimist when it comes to sport and always see ways where my guy/team could lose rather than backing them to prove things against the odds.

That said last week I said I didn't like Beterbiev's chances against Bivol at this age but now I'm beginning to lean towards him again if it happens this year.

 

Good post and agree, but I would put Crawford in there aswell.

 

Yes I agree. The way he fights from both stances is beautiful.

It's not looking like his career will be as memorable as those guys though.

 

I would like to see him box Canelo at 168lbs, but if he is going to have a fight at 160 first. I don’t like Ginger and I don’t think he looked good against bang average John Ryder.
