    Anyone who saw him in the amateurs taking flush shots from larger men without flinching knows Bererbiev can take any punch at 175 pounds.

    Beterbiev would KO Usyk in the pros. Usyk has a style best suited to the amateurs, I wasn't surprised he beat Beterbiev, I think Beterbiev KO's him if they meet in the pros. But I think it's unlikely they will meet, Beterbiev will be cross over star, while Usyk - with a very boring style of fighting - will struggle to gain fans/TV support.

    Usyk has a good set of fans already, everyone ive noticed is aboard the Usyk hypetrain. They even think he can clear out the crusierweight division then move up and take over where the klitchko's left off.

    No, just no...

    Usyk is extremely skilled, very fast, and has crazy reflexes. He would box circles around Beterbiev.

    So far Beterbiev is fighting like a caveman, chin first plodder throwing wild hayemakers. He's going no where until he polishes his skills

    Beterbiev vs Usyk at 200 pounds would be a very good match!
