    As far as I remember, Floyd Mayweather never once postponed a fight due to injury. Neither did Pacquiao, Bernard Hopkins, Lennox Lewis and many others.

    The post May-Pac inactive generation are doing something wrong.
    I think Beterbiev's gym work is extreme even for pro-boxers - there's videos. That and the age.

        Really? You're going by sparring stories from years ago? Wow. I'm a Benavidez fan but he's flat footed and open for counters. The guys is tailor made for Bivol who's movement, timing and punch selection are exceptional. Unless Bivol starts to look old, I would favour him all day against David.

            This is painfully predictable. Beterbiev is ALWAYS getting injured, fxcking annoying. This is an example of why fans can't get look forward to anything.

            I hope the 5vs5 card goes along anyway.

              Beterbiev getting up there in age. **** happens. That’s why you can’t wait so damn long to make these fights.

                This really sucks. The best match up in boxing today and it might not happen after all.

                  Wrong!!!

                  BenavideZ won't just let Bivol get off he will pressure him like no one ever has break him and stop him I would bet on that.

                    I enjoy Beterbiev from a entertainment standpoint, but his injury/inactivity is the reason why I never became emotionally invested in his career. It's one letdown after another. One month away from his biggest fight, and he gets injured. We've already had Fury/Usyk postponed thie year, so another postponement is extremely disappointing. I just hope that the 5vs5 card isn't postponed.

                      Yeah ok. I'll believe it when I see it. If Bivol gets old before they fight, it's definitely a possibility. As long as he's as good as his last couple of fights I just think Bivol will have Benavidez hittiing fresh air all night.
