Any proof beterbiev is actually injured?

[Gideon lock]

Seems a bit fishy to me, he's had "injuries" going into the last 3 fights. I think he's doing what fury done to usyk just creating more time to contend with bivols style come up with a proper gameplan he knows bivol will be his toughest fight yet. So wants an extra camp

Why hasn't Hopkins requested his doctor's note?

It's funny, remember like 10 years ago if a fighter was injured they would post a picture or proof of the injury?

You think the guy who's 7 years older is aging out the younger guy?

I believe he s injured. But he will come sooner or later. He needs that fight.

He has posted pictures of surgery and doctors operating room previously on Instagram so why doubt him now?

Dude is old and has had a LOT of injuries. He gets injured all the time. He's probably the last guy I'd think would do it deliberately. The longer it drags out, the worse it is for him. He's the older guy, and will have more ring rust to go into the most important and lucrative fight of his career. It doesn't benefit him to fake an injury now. Turki's not in the best health. If Turki eats it before Beterbiev recovers, King Artur might lose that huge retirement paycheck.

Doubt he be lying as he is known for his work ethic, and being prone to injuries.

A big injury to the knee as a 40 year old could heavily impact Beterviev however, not sure how he perform by the time he fights. He was already known as a fighter who barely relies on footwork and slowly walked down his opposition. He have to make his opponents come to him, which I doubt a top opponent like Bivol that plays it smart will easily fall for it and get caught with his distance management.

You think that when a fighter gets injured he simply calls a sanctioning body with "Hey, I am injured, we postpone the fight. Bye."? He is requested to provide a proof. I can think of one guy pretending he was doing some military activity while he didn't do any, just some photos in camouflage...
