Beterbiev vs Browne purse bid scheduled for September 28th

I suspect that boxer's origin ( even passport ) too does matters.
Huck is with German passport?
Now let's see his career: he was very good am kickboxer, in pros turned into a pro boxer.
When he failed and had lost vs Cunningham via stoppage, he still after this had get fights allowing him to climb up in rankings again and get next title shot. He won this one and turned into important tickets seller in Germany.
He even get HW fight vs then 32 y.o Povetkin and depsite he didn't won, he looked not bad and was even more popular after this.
He get some media deals and ad deals.
Lost WBO title defense vs Glowacki in US via stoppage and even this was not end.
Looks that after this had established even his own prom company.
Then he climbed in rankings again and get opportunity to get fight for WBC World Title. He just had to win vs Briedis.
Okey, he didn't won in Germany vs Briedis.
Even this was not end of his career.

Huck get into WBSS tournament and get fight vs Usyk with WBO World title on line and in Germany.

Now you imagine IF boxer who with 3 lost fights ( 2 via stoppage ) under belt again is getting a title shot, even more than this: opportunity to fight in WBSS and for Ali trophy.

This is I think properly promoted boxer's example. Ofc he also looks that does have German passport.

 

Agreed.

And to be fair, the EE guys usually always bring the heat. Very entertaining fighters to watch.

 

Exactly.

Golovkin and Kovalev have demonstrated that as long as you have a fan friendly style you will have a successful following and are easy to monetise.

 

Is Arum still upset he beat the **** out of Gvodzyk? He doing Beterbiev like he did Rigondeaux after beating Donaire.

 

Arum promised Beterbiev unification fights. In reality he wanted a chess piece he could take off the table but that chess piece turned out to be the king and not a pawn like he imagined.

They're hoping he gets too old and starts a losing streak at Top Rank so they can fast track Joe Smith Jr.

Beterbiev is just better off trying to get into DAZNs books and hope to land a few big fights there if Top Rank cannot deliver anything for him.
