Well duh, but if you pay attention its about fighters fighting their mandatorys. Exhibit A) Lara acquired a WBA mandatory ranking, GGG vacates. Had a career full of beating Mandatories up until Lara became one. Exhibit B) Beterbiev fulfills his mandatories and consistantly fights whoever is the number 1 contender, which is why the Smith fight will take place. Theres simularities, Get it?
Well, lara is a guy that would give tons of problems to gg, and callum smith is just another guy for beterbiev. Not the same. Why would you dodge a guy whose style will give you no problem? No, not the same.
We all saw that coming. Beterbiev by KO in late rounds. If Beterbiev vs. Bivol doesn't happens next year, I don't wanna see it anymore, don't wanna see a past-prime Beterbiev having this fight
Yes, I get the point. Gg dodges his mandatory, and beterbiev doesnt. But there are mandatories and "mandatories". Maybe the problem is that I think that callum smith is very overrated.
I basically give Smith the same shot against Beterbiev that i would give Lara if he fought GGG, because Smith can punch like a mule. I think its a good fight.
Yes, probably that's why we don't agree. I dont give smith not even half the chances that lara had vs gg.
I agree with all of that except Smith has a better chance V Beterbiev than Lara does v GGG. But i love this fight also but i'm gutted its coming before the undisputed fight.
Ok to fight Smith as LONG AS HE FIGHTS BIVOL AFTERWARDS. I'm thinking that Bivol will fight Canelo in September at 168. Surely B and B can fight in December or January. If that's not TOO MUCH TO ASK.
