    AB has never been out on his feet. He has been flash knocked down, which also happened to RJJ against lou del valle who is not world class either. Also callum smith punches harder than almost anyone RJJ fought besides tarver who starched him

    Callus Smith got dominated by Canelo and got beat up by Ryder at 168. He's a nobody on Roy's resume, and that says a lot

    Revisiting John Ruiz and Beterbiev has nowhere near this level of ferocity and power

    I was watching boxing at the time and reading all the publications and I completely agree with the opinion of @Dynamicpuncher

    Flash knockdown ? Beterbiev was knocked down like a sack of potatoes and got up on shaky legs you must be joking if you think that was a flash knockdown.

    Callum Smith is comparable to Clinton Woods two durable tall British fighters except Clinton Woods was a more accomplished Light Heavyweight.

    The difference is Woods wouldn't even be a top 10 win on RJJ's resume where as Smith is probably a top 3 win for Beterbiev.

    I'd put Bivol, Gvozdyk, Smith Jr, Marcus Browne, even Cloud above Callum Smith. But he's arguably top 5 on Beterbievs resume. Beyond Arturs top 2 wins there's not much there

    clinton woods was a guy that started boxing at 25 to get into shape, he was a part time club fighter like 90% of roys resume. Not even remotely comparable

    You are literally trying to rewrite history, that's not what happened at all. Meanwhile it was ROY who was out on his feet, 1 punch away from being stopped

    I'm trying to rewrite history ? let's look a the footage right now. 8:30 into the video Beterbiev gets clocked with a left hook and goes down, he gets up and stumbles towards to corner with Sugar Ray Leonard commentating says this exact quote "he's in trouble".

    As for RJJ being 1 punch away from being stopped by Lou Del Valle absolutely hilarious and i'm rewriting history ? you're the first person to ever think RJJ was close to being stopped by Lou Del Valle lol absolutely bizarre take with no truth at all other than you posting nonsense yet again.

    Can you please stop quoting me if you haven't got a clue what you're talking about ?

    Clinton Woods was a champion for 3 years and made 4 title defences which is 4 times more than Gvodzyk made who you keep hyping up for some reason.

    But i guess beating a 41 year old Stevenson is some ATG achievement according to you.

    The more you post the more you reveal how little you actually know about boxing.

    Against who? Nobody, the division was garbage at that time. LHW has never been a great division but its much more stacked in this era, much more actual professional boxers instead of part timers

    Hmm no RJJ got up instantly and looked annoyed that he got caught.

    Beterbiev got dropped heavily and then stumbled towards the corner looking hurt and even the commentator Sugar Ray Leonard said "He's in trouble"
