    I can see it but Calzaghe kind of used his gloves like a slap a lot. He would hit with his palm to get them to relax and then smash them with a fist when they thought they could walk through it. I think he was underrated. Nice guy, too.

      That's why he was trying to get Buatsi to jump in line for the title shot ahead of Ramirez.
      No, he wanted Buatsi so that he could get paid from both fighters because he promotes both. He will always take the money over a better fight, just like all of these promoters.

        At first, Zurdo tried to say that Bivol's team wanted to avoid him because Dimitry could lose. Then, he said it was so that Bivol could make more money from two fights instead of one. I tend to believe the latter.

          No He's not beating Beterbiev, what I said is if he's able to sting Beterbiev, it could turn out to be a good fight.
          Yarde had that fight with Kovalev won, until he got hurt by that punch which erased all of the point's he had accumulated up to that point.

            He could always do that by having Buatsi face Bivol after Zurdo. But he was in a big rush to get the Buatsi fight in first.

              Pretty pumped about this fight Zurdo taking on the best or second best in the division is exciting i hope this fight doesn't fly under the radar been waiting forever for Zurdo to face an elite fighter no disrespect to his previous foes.

                All about greed and having complete control of the money.

                    Ramirez is a worthy challenger... accurate puncher, good power, solid boxer, good finisher.
                    Not sure that translates to a W over Bivol though. He's probably best boxer in the division.

                      I'm almost 100% sure that Beterbiev hits harder than Kovalev! I guess we'll see in due time!
