    Everyone who seems to have an opposing view is a troll to you.

    No, people I've banned on several occasions that keep making alts to come back and do idiotic threads like this, are trolls. For anyone interested, the moron that started this thread, used to be known as El Chicano.

    Callum Johnson can really bang and he caught him early on and Beterbiev recovered to stop him shortly afterwards. Nothing questionable about his chin other than if you let someone who can punch like Johnson connect on your sweet spot you probably will get put over

    Calllum Johnson isn't an "incredible talent." And while Gvodzyk was certainly a very good fighter, I never considered him a special talent by any means.

    I've been a vocal Lomachenko fan, whom I do consider a special talent, since his amateur days, bro. And, the last time I checked, Ukraine is located in Eastern Europe.

    I don't dispute that there is some anti-EE bias on ESB, but I can scarcely be accused of engaging in it.

    eng language forums and YT comments.

    This is more like real racism. Racism in depth is discrimination based on race, nationality and origin and number of such anti EE racists is very high in eng forums. Vey high.

    I do agree that some fan might not like one style, then for another one style etc or boxers resume.

    Sadly regardless of fighting styles and not rare cases even regardless of origin, EE fighters are racists victims in discussions and coments.
    Even the same Vitaly had fighting style like from another World if compare with Wlad. Not alone xx EE fighters judged by racists in forums and there lol, no problems.
    EE boxers does get more hate and disrespect regardless of their fighting style.
    More harsh handling than irish ppl had when Ireland was not independent. Sadly.

    He’s won all of his fights, by KO. I can’t think of an instance where he ducked anyone or cherry picked. He doesn’t fight frequently enough but some of that can be attributed to contract issues, poor management and recent bad luck with injuries and Covid.

    That said, unlike many modern day belt holders, AB seems willing to fight anyone and always comes in in shape and has a very fan friendly aggressive fighting style. I think he gets hit too much but he’s got a granite chin and doesn’t shy away from brutal action. He’s a very tough guy and a beast at 175. Guys are so used to seeing mismatches like most of Crawford’s recent fights and all of Tank’s recent fights and are looking for quick knockouts.

    Beterbiev’s last fight was entertaining and he dominated pretty much every round before knocking go out his opponent late. Pretty impressive performance. I don’t see any AB fans saying he’s PFP best or anything crazy. He’s a very rough guy who no one has beaten yet. Bivol might be a good opponent and is a better boxer. I just don’t know if he can stand up to AB’s power. So far, no opponent has.

    Eastern European people are a pan-ethnic group, or multi-ethnic regional grouping, and the inhabitants of Eastern Europe. East or Eastern Europeans can usually trace back full or partial heritage to Belarus, Moldova, Russia, Ukraine and other nations bordering with or otherwise ethnoculturally related to the region.

    CJ looks a lot like Deveryanchenko. Just less Eastern Euro.
