Beterbiev vs Foster

Maybe a few of them would stop him? He isn't exactly hard to hit.

 

Ill have to look at fosters heavyweight resume.

 

You say. How many fights of Mina have you seen?
Beterbiev is better than Terrell?
Terrell beat;
Jones
Folley
Williams
Machen
Chuvalo
Zech
Lincoln

Who has Beterbiev beaten to make him favourite over Terrell?

 

While you are at it look at Beterbiev's lol.

 

Wasnt this fight meant to be at 175lbs.

If it was meant for 175+ then we'll have another look.

Ofc since the modern heavyweight have got huge and the birth of the CW division, not many LHWs put on 25lbs+ to fight Heavyweights.

 

The other poster keeps on about Foster being beaten by class heavyweights,my point is what relevance has that to his efforts at 175lbs?

 

None.

 

Bob Foster has all of that in his arsenal, Gvozdyk is not Bob Foster. Bob Foster retired as champion, his reign began in May 1968 and ended in June 1974, his losses were to heavyweights, Beterbiev is not a heavyweight.

 

Didnt he lose at lhw aswell?

 

I believe so before he became World Light Heavyweight Champion on May 24 1968 by kayoing D. Tiger in round 4.

 

Beterbiev if he beats Smith and Bivol impressively at 40. Bivol being a very good talent, with top notch skills.

Foster is an ATG ofc, Beterbiev is doing it all late.

 

You think Beterbiev beats Ernie Terrell? Hmm, uh well that's a unique opinion.

 

Actually no. Foster had a bigger chest ,bicep, waist and quad then Smith. Look at the tale of the tape.
Also Foster had a thicker skeletal structure.
And btw the only fair comparison is their height.. Foster had the reach and power over Smith.
Ripped in half? Not likely.

 

I can't find a tale of the tape for Smith. He's currently fighting at cruiserweight and only got stopped by Beterbiev and some guy in one of his first fights.

 

I actually think this has the makings of a very difficult fight for Foster. Foster seldom fought to his height, and in fact hunched down to engage opponents in the middle distance. Every time he misses Artur with the jab or uppercut, he will be in trouble, as he is not the stronger fighter in there.

I do, however, think of Bob as having the bigger punch. There looms the possibility- for both- of one punch ending matters, or at least, significantly turning the tide. But Bob was more so a ticking timebomb in that regard.
