Beterbiev injured, fight postponed. Beterbiev career is over and 40

[4truth]

A meniscus tear isn't necessarily a bad injury depending on how bad the tear is. The surgery itself is minimally invasive. I've had the operation on both my knees, also at about 40 and I'm playing basketball more than 20 years later. I have friends though whose results were not nearly so positive. They probably won't know till they go in with the scope how bad.

Bivol is still fighting on June 1st vs an undefeated fighter from Libya.

Sucks this makes the Beterbiev vs Bivol so much worse imo. Beterbiev going into a Bivol fight with a year of inactivity and coming off of new surgery just isn't the same imo.

I would rather see Bivol vs Benavidez at 175 now.

Hopefully bivols opponent can harness the spirit of gaddafi and put forth a decent effort

Beterbiev being 40, coming off of knee surgery and over a year of inactivity isn't going to be anything that I'm looking forward to.

Sure. Beterbiev is done. But he will come back for this pay day.
