Beterbiev The Russian Carl Froch

[RJJ-94-02=GOAT]

By Johnson you do realize your referring to the Lhw Sunny Edward's without the silverware right? Johnson was a lhw version of Liam Williams

Nah… neither comparison makes sense.

Nah… neither comparison makes sense.

The comparison is apt.(Johnson & Williams comparison) Callum Johnson is always going to be a unknown journeyman who was like 100-1 underdog when v 1 elite foe, & who despite kd Beterbieve was never in it to win it & was fighting like a guy in way over his head.(he looked like a guy who knew he'd get kod when fight started)

I think Beterbiev is much better than Froch man.

Froch and Beterbiev have some similar traits but Froch didn’t have the technical skills of Beterbiev. He didn’t have the same sort of crushing power too. Beterbiev is pretty much an all around better fighter.

Look at the difference between Froch-Dirrell and Beterbiev-Browne last night for example.

Froch is by far way better than Beterbiev. Not sure what your seeing. Neither could whip Ward though.

Who’s he struggled against?

The only guy I can think of is Johnson and even still Beterbiev got up and regained control of that fight very quickly.

I'll assume you are referring to Callum? (I didn't think he looked bad in that fight just got caught in an exchange from memory at least)
He struggled and was getting outboxed for large spells vs a journeyman in Alexander Johnson.
Jeff Page Jr knocked him down & I thought he looked terrible vs Adam Deines.

Beterbiev's boxing skills really get overlooked it seems.

All I see is brute force from Beterbieve,he reminds me of ggg when he was bulldozing the likes of Rubio, Stevins, Lemuixe & wade. He reminds me of a boxing better version as this video too. (A more self destructive version of ggg who steamrolls to hell with defense(he uses pivots with his body stiff, somehow it works for him but he eats some deadly shots regularly & just throws tons in return anyways.)

Sheer will to outclub opponents.

There were fights he looked underwhelming but I don’t think the end result was ever in question. I also thought he looked poor vs Denies and Koelling too, but he was clearly winning the fight. It wasn’t like he was struggling, struggling.

I thought he dealt with Alexander Johnson pretty easily tbh.

Nah he’s not. Beterbiev is better technically, a bigger puncher, better footwork, better combination puncher.

What attributes does Froch have over Beterbiev?

Massively bro. Beterbiev has good technique and sets his punches up very well too.

Nah I don’t see it. Williams and Johnson don’t really fight that much a like.

Johnson is a decent fighter too.
