    I'm amazed by how many people act as if Beterbiev om the same level as Kovalev.

    Power wise from close range Beterbiev is hardest hitter in boxing

    His skills, athleticism, and ring IQ all pale in comparison to Kovalev.

    In all serious i agree it looks to like this. But Beterbiev has only ten fights, it too early to judge, and no one come close to bringing out the best the best the best the best of him

    If Hopkins was serious about fighting someone who he would be big underdog against, then he cant do any braver than Beterbiev. The man is monster

    Rumors are that Golovkin-Wade is official, so that's out.

    Golovkin-Wade, eh? Well that sounds like a real barn burner.

    The way things are going it'll prob be Khan... On a more serious note, I wouldnt put it past him to try and befuddle one of the crusierweight champs as a swan song. Glowacki?

    Beterbiev is an easier opponent for Hopkins than Kovalev. Hopkins had problems fighting boxers that have a long reach like Chad Dawson for instance and Kovalev also has a long reach, no matter what boxrec says, he beat Hopkins from the outside. However Beterbiev does not have long arms, so Hopkins has a better chance against him, although I do not see that fight happening.

    Kovalev actually has a jab.
