Beterbiev vs. Joshua Buatsi, who you got?

Even Yarde beats Buatsi. Come on now. These are domestic level fighters.

 

Yea against Bivol. Not some British goon with no skill.

 

Can Buatsi take the combos to body and head from Beterbiev that Yarde took? Buatsi has never been in at this level.

 

Against who?

 

Less of the Brit, Calzaghe would have boxed Buatsi`s ears off.

 

Bit suspicious of all these types who've recently come out of the woodwork claiming Smiff and now Buatsi would beat Beterbiev. I think there's now a bit more belief that Bivol would beat him but that's about it. While Yarde might've lost 3 times already, these have been great experiences for him and at this point in time I think he's a vastly better fighter than Buatsi. I first saw Buatsi on the Whyte-Chisora 2 undercard, who was being positioned to be this light heavyweight AJ, and since then has done bugger all. I think the Richards fight was pretty close, despite Tony 'Bellend' Bellend's bellend scorecard. Yarde has fought Kovalev in his backyard, had a back-and-forth with Arthur and now given Beterbiev his best fight maybe. Buatsi has err...? No idea why Eddie kicked up a stink about the Pascal IBF eliminator either, as that would've been a great learning fight for Buatsi. Young, athletic guy against a crafty, old veteran sort of fight. I think at this point in time we have to accept Eddie is crap at developing fighters from scratch and only thinks in terms of straight lines i.e. this 175 undisputed wankfest he's muscled himself into. I don't see Buatsi going anywhere to be honest. Glad to see him at the BT coverage last weekend though

 

Buatsi is an olympic medalist. I think he beats Yarde. Yarde made a bad habit of getting knocked out, it seems it will happen again, a lot.

 

Sixteen fights in six years. Fair enough for the second half of a career, but the first 16 fights taking more than half a decade? And nothing yet slated for 2023. He's fought four times since the summer of 2019 and nine of his sixteen fights took place in the first two years as a pro. I'm not sure he even wants to be a boxer. Not a great mind set for taking on Beterbiev...

 

Mike Tyson wasn`t an olympic medalist while Audley Harrison as an olympic gold medalist and nowhere near as tough as Yarde.

 

Just the sight of his beard would have him buzzed...
