Beterbiev style, fights like a karateka ?

[Haka]

None of this typical old school English boxing like Callum Smith, chin kept in, rounded back, outside foot towards the opponent. More straight punches, stance changes, connecting, endless punches because of the balance. AB does not box like any other boxer that I have seen.

Interesting comment.
Maybe you can post a clip of a full contact Katateka fighting like Beterbiev?

Andy Hug is a good one I think although he kicks a lot, but the fundamentals are similar ? There are terms in karate for using torque and activating the core, standing squared up etc. etc. AB does it all perfectly I noticed.

Yes and he is an easy target because of that. If he jumps on Bivol, Bivol will love that.

RIP Andy Hug

I'd say he is stable as one (not something I can say about karate styles that are not Kyokushin spin-offs) and bravely goes forward, but that's a similarity which isn't that surprising.

He has wide feet with his knees bent.

Connor Mcgreggor fights stand up like that a lot, looks like a fencer.

mayweather has wide feet but his knees are more straight up not bent

Yeah actually Kostya Tszyu had the exact same foot stance as beterbiev now that i think about it.
