    Well.. AB is 36 yo and his only really big win is Gvozdyk. I donīt know who to blame for that resume but so far Iīm not impressed.

      Bob is not gonna make that happen. Why take one payday when you could make 2 PAYDAY'S? It does not take a Harvard lawyer to tell 2 is better than one.

        Joe smith not easy for anyone he’s improved and his power is untouchable if u don’t think he could beat beterbiev that’s ur opinion but he’s got a good shot beterbiev gets hit

          Smith is a live dog because his chin, power and he wants the fight. If he can withstand Beterbiev's power it will be a fun fight. I think Beterbiev will out skill him.

            Beterbiev is gonna get his ass kicked soon enough.

              Two tough fighters, it has to happen soon for age reasons on one side and activity reasons on the other. Still as was said Joe Jr. has got some business next weekend and I do not think he is looking past anything bc if he does that is real trouble. Some guys got to ansere the question but Smith last fight was not an easy one I know delay delay had its effects but now there should be some improvement and focus for his next three fights if we are looking forward. I would like to see the LH start to pick up and get something moving it is a division that is moving slow for all the fighters in it at the moment.

                Not surprised, this has been a pattern with guys staying to long with that Montreal area promotion group. Not trying to blame them but, something's up. Either they 're not liked, got frozen out or never managed to get away from the historically darker side of the business. It's hard to believe that they would be that bad after so many decades and after reviving boxing in their region before the split etc. This guy could have taken anyone at one point but now, i feel he's prone to injury like Gassiev. On top of that his timing isn't as good like with any fighter that is not very active..sparring isn't the same thing unless in an old school gym war. Hand/eye coordination and the brain need to stay finely tuned or you get Lopez vs Kambosos etc.. That split second or half inch can turn an easy fight into a harsh wake up call.... Ugas vs Manny

                    Why would he want to fight you, when a payday like Canelo is possible?
