    He had his big chance against Ward, wouldn't some think that he could have done better in that fight? were people disappointed in him?,

    I see he is always going back & forth with Ward in their continued pow wow though can't blame him as it is the apparent Son Of God Ward,

    Truth is he & Ward are quiet alike if only they looked close enough.

    We must have a different idea of what a beat down is

    He failed in the first Kovalev fight thats for sure. Im not sure how he found a way for that one, but it wasn't what he did in the ring that got it done.

    He did not fail he just had a poor start and worked Kovalev out slowing him down with body shots. Not that complex really.

    He lost, its really not debatable, but in America its better to have an American champ than a Russian champ. So they covered his a** like they covered Canelo's a**. You know, kind of get him through a rough patch or two, it will pay off in the end of coarse. In the meantime Ward and his fans can boast Ward is the first to defeat Kovalev while the exact opposite is what really happend.

    Froch would have been put to sleep, his chin wasn't as tough as is made out.

    True story, remember this is the fighter that was flattened by Taylor and Groves, not even in the same timezone as Beterbiev.

    Froch would try boxing him on the outside I think, a La Abraham.

    But Beterbiev ends up stopping him. Imo.

    Sleep on that if it makes you comfortable. Truth is Ward took his soul.

    So what? Beterbiev got dropped by Callum Johnson & Jeff Page ffs .. what's that prove? Hes a beast but his opponents arent that great tbh.. I mean look at Marcus Brown, he was beat to **** by an old Pascal.. Yarde.. a guy that needed two fights to beat Lyndon Arthur and was knocked out by a jab once LOL..
    Gvozdyk, talented boxer but let's be honest he is best known for stopping a 40-year old Stevenson who was lucky to get past Badou Jack.. ppl acting like legit great fighters of the past 20-years couldn't hang with this guy

    Beterbiev stops Froch around the 8th or 9th. Carl is competive for a little bit but the end would be brutal.

    Historically, very very few fighters under 175 could beat AB.

    Most people are saying Beterbiev is too big but froch is actually taller and has a longer reach ha could also punch hard so he'd be in this fight, I don't see him getting blown away

    Why would even utter the words it’s not really debatable when the judges awarded Ward a narrow but nevertheless unanimous decision 113-112 victory. As for the rematch will all know how that played out even more unanimously in Ward’s favour.
