Beterbiev having troubles finding his next opponent.

I think it's fairly obvious he's fighting Mikhalkin next in March: [url]http://boxrec.com/boxer/431949[/url]
Because of Ramadan from May-June, he won't fight again until September, and then one more fight in December.

 

It's his promoter's fault, Yvon has Alvarez and Stevenson he could match Beterbiev with.

 

Stevenson's a good idea. Why have such a limited piece of **** when you have this wrecking ball?

Aside from him hopefully Barrera

But cant blame anyone for not wanting their jaws broken for pocket change

 

Is WBC belt not good enough for Beterbiev?
Stevenson is available.

 

Here are Beterbiev's options for his IBF mando:

This is the current IBF ranking:

8.Vyacheslav Shabransky
9. Sullivan Barrera
10. Oleksandr Gvozdyk
11. Robert Stieglitz,he will fight Mhailenko for the EBU title.
12. Trent Broadhurst
13. Chad Dawson
14. Michael Lee
15. Radivoje Kalajdric

 

Pretty sure Browne can be scrapped off that list, unless Haymon believes he can't make much of a profit off him and just feeds him to Beterbiev.
If Barrera is smart, he won't go anyway near Beterbiev with his stock on the rise again, but I'd like to see that.
3rd option Kalajdzic is clearly better as Browne of course as we saw in their fight, which needed a US referee and 3 US judges to beat the Polish guy.

Shouldn't that one be up for robbery of the year actually?

 

Don't forget Stevenson, he lives in same city as Beter and they share baby daddy/adviser/manager/pimp in Al Haymon, networks and a promoter.

 

Since he turned pro I can see that he has a lot of problems finding a good oposition. Everyone turns down the fight with him. The organisations need a global change about how it works to face someone else and make theese so called fighters actually fight between each other.

 

I think Barrera wants fight with Beterbiev,maybe he will accept it.

 

Cruiserweight.

 

is beterbiev really that good, from the fights i have seen he gets hit alot against c grade opponents. his defense would have to be a lot better against the best at light heavy (kovalev/stevenson) otherwise he gets KO'd. ward would run and potshot his way to a UD against beterbiev most likely, beterbiev doesn't have the experience to beat someone like ward.

 

pretty much this he's very slow and one dimensional see guy's like barrera kovalev koing him, and like you said ward would just have an easy night outboxing him, no way i can see any possilbe way beterbiev has a chance vs ward

 

True, but honestly there's no need to get the IBF mandatory if Artur can get the WBC title.
