    Yeah. He was interviewed by RDS and said he wanted all 3 of Kovalev's belts. Could just be a PR move though.

    I think GAYMANs gonna throw a HUGE dollar amount at him for this fight, one he WONT turn down.

    Maybe 3 million or something.

    Then, GAYMAN will position Beterbiev to fight Brahmer or whoever is WBA titlist in 2016.

    Will wait for Kovalev to show a dent, then enforce the mandatory after Beterbiev defends the WBA title a few times. :think

    If they're actually cashing out Stevenson, why not cash him out in-house to Beterbiev?

    Money? Everyone wants to see Stevenson-Kovalev, would be a great money fight in Canada.

    Haymon needs to build up Beterbiev a bit more.

    Good post.

    And I'd add that Superbiitch hasnt exactly become the fan favorite GYM thought he might.

    No sense in showing their hand by feeding him to Beterbiev, or he'd sue to get out of the contract.
    Superbiitch knows he's very limited and was exposed by Fonfara in that his one-punch KO power isnt as great as many once thought. He's gonna box like Ali to avoid being KOd vs Bika, then the $$$$ fight with Kovalev.

    I supposed he'll end up fighting JCC Jr in his comeback fight after KOvalev KOs him, and that will actually be his cashout with a tupeup, (Bute????:think:think:think)between KOvalev KO1 and JCC JR KO6.
