Prime Kovalev stops Beterbiev

[Teetotaler69]

Man I miss kovalev

[_Rexy_]

Got to be able to hurt artur or at least make him think twice …smith hit him with a couple,of good shots that bounce right off him and artur was not worried about anything coming back…if u can’t hit him with something that will make him say “hmm” I think you’ve got no chance ….although I think bivol might have the skill to,last and win enough rounds

Depends on Bivol’s body TBH. And yeah, Artur showed zero respect for Callum’s power from the opening bell.

I don't think Kovalev could take his punches.

[MulaKO]

Those crazy MF's must have a union of idiotic camelo fans somewhere. They need to put down with words other boxers after they said all of them would've been "easy work"

A sleeping Artur with one hand tie would retire their midget idol.

It’s all about agendas
They come in disguise lol

[MulaKO]

Hearing Beterbiev's punches thudding against an opponent at ringside would change many fan's opinions. It did mine.

I saw Gvozdyk fight him incredibly well yet still wilt under the punishment until his body gave out. I was telling a friend last night that Artur's punches sound like a baseball bat hitting a slab of meat.

I enjoyed Kovalev and he could really fight but Artur destroys him.

So you’ve been to a Beterbiev fight
Is that sound of his punches hitting another human just out of this world ?
I’ve been there at the beginning and I just thought it was impossible what i was hearing lol

Beterbiev by KO his looping shot is the best weapon in boxing history.

Beterbiev beat Kovi in the amateurs

Thats the thing, Kovalev claims he "really won" or "was robbed" or whatever. I havent seen that tape, I only seen the Beterbiev-Usyk fights.

Kovalev had every motivation to get his "rematch" in the pros with Beterbiev and that fight never happened and I didnt see him talk about Beterbiev much. If anything Beterbiev has at least showed us way more longevity in the sport, he is looking better at almost 39 than Kovalev in his mid 30s.

Canelo specifically targeted Kovalev for a fight because he saw a weakness, he wont fight Beterbiev, he maybe said his name once or twice but when it came time for his second fight at 175 he specifically avoided him in favor of a lighter puncher in Bivol.

Kovalev has always looked weak in the body. Hes gotten hurt from smaller guys like Canelo and Ward. I could see Beterbiev folding him into a pretzel. I do think Kovalev beat Ward first fight and was screwed over with that ball punch combination stoppage in the rematch. He never unified with stevenson which would have added to his legacy.

Kovalev gets stopped lmao with body shots.

Agree with this, he hates body shots, weve seen him run and back up from little Canelo walking him down. Beterbiev is a prolific body puncher.

I give Bivol a better chance than Kovlev, he has quicker legs is a bit more mobile. Not taking damage is going to be a key for anyone to ever beat Beterbiev.

That’s one fight I was pissed never got make ; Stevenson vs Kovi
Kovi talked talked and talked some more but imo , avoided him like the plague
People Just don’t get Beterbiev
They think he’s this werewolf who just mauls which is actually the total opposite
I’m glad people are witnessing him now , which I believe he’s lost a tad , then again I’ve been following him since he got to North America
First time I heard the thump of his punches , i knew he was something really special
I’ve seen May fight live and if you blink you’d miss about a six punch combo
Beterbiev instead would make you turn your head cause it sounded like a bat hitting the turnbuckle
You could hear that chit in the upper echelons of the bowl
