    Lights out for Beterbiev imo. If this fight somehow gets made... This is a terrible match up for stiff ass wolverine. I swear AB looks like Frankenstein getting dropped by club fighters TIMBER!!!

    AB admires his work standing stiff he's gonna get his bell rung vs Gvozdyk he's got zero chance I'm betting the house on Nail. The problem is I'm gonna brt the day of the fight... With AB's track record I think he's gonna fight Pascal instead of Gvozdyk.

    AB got KO'd in sparring or something. Something has changed over the years why has he been so protected. If he has such great AM experience I want him showcasing his skills.

    Except that Gvodzyk is levels above club fighter Johnson.

    Gvodzyk still looks a bit unrefined to me. He's lucky he was fighting an old Stevenson, otherwise he would have been KO'd. It's a good fight, and I look forward to it.

    I agree he isn't the finished article, but still the second best h2h in the division behind Kovalev.

    I disagree regarding head to head. Bivol has the best resume out of the three.

    Gvodzyk has Stevenson that really lost to Jack, and Chilemba.
    Beterbiev has Campillo, and Cloud
    Bivol has, Pascal, Barrera, Smith Jr., and Chilemba.

    Well, at the same time it can be said that Stevenson's lucky he was fighting unrefined Gvozdyk, can't it? :wink:

    Not really. Gvodzyk is 32, he is what he is at this point.

    With regard to "AB already beat Gvozdyk in the amateurs", "AB broke Gvozdyk's nose" stories...
    Gvozdyk's nose had been already broken before that fight (they either didn't know it, or decided to go on regardless). In the first round Beterbiev landed some punches, and the nose started to bleed. They weren't able to stop the blood, so Gvozdyk was pulled off.

    Now Gvozdyk admits that he lost that fight, but he describes it with a smile on his face, actually. He's not emotionally traumatized by that experience or anything like that.

    When did Stevenson fight Chilemba?o_O

    And at best the Jack match was a draw. No real feasible route to a 7-5 victory for Jack.

    If he had gone in to pro boxing earlier he would have been 5 times better than Stevenson. The Gvoz that beat Stevenson was at most 2 times better, gvoz will get better as his career progresses, so technically he has the time to become BETTER than he was when he fought the Pimp.

    I was saying that Chilemba and Stevenson were the only names on Gvodzyk's resume and Stevenson was fairly shot.

    Giving Stevenson more than five rounds in that fight was impossible, the rounds were that clear last I watched it.

    He didn't though. He is what he is. I agree he will get a little better, he does have some ability. He's not better than Bivol to me though. He's just taller.
