Nah... However I don't think they are on PED I also don't think that it's because the foods. In Russia or Ukraine there are Mc'Donalds and other fast foods too. + they drink a lots of vodka, whiskey, etc... which isn't that healthy.
If it would be because of foods than Bradley with his extra healthy foods would be the biggest puncher on Earth.
I think these guys strong mainly because genetics...

Slavic people are generally strong.

I just watched the fight, that was something of a statement. I would like to see Beterbiev vs Kovalev.

Cloud seemed to slip into a relaxed boxing rhythm way too quickly before even learning his opponent.

Before that first knockdown, Cloud acted like it was a clinch the ref was going to break up way before it actually was. Beterbiev just kept punching. Maybe he spent the weekend watching Kenny Bayless' Greatest Hits.

With Beterbiev so familiarized with "roughhouse" I suspect that Andre Ward will seriously consider to stay at 168 for good -- is he is to stay anywhere in boxing...

Andre Ward will only move up to 175 when all those beasts at 175 are either shot to hell or old. He hasn't shown any interest in fighting anyone in the higher weights yet his fans think he's going to move up and school everybody.

Didn't he schooled Dawson? And he didn't drain him down. Dawon willingly fought him at 168 but if you watch the fight it's obvious that the difference was so much that whatever if it was at 175 Ward would beat him easily there too.
You can't argue everything with weight drain. In terms of strategy, accuracy and skillwise Ward way landmiles before Dawson.

Don't get why Ring had Cloud ranked Top 5 when he's essentially coming off 3 uncompetitive loses.

They had him #7 or #8.

Beterbiev would cannibalise Ward, look how he beasted on the inside. Ward has a better chance against Kovalev but I think he loses that too.

Ward should take up Kessler's offer of fighting in Denmark because I can't see any other big fights for him.

Ohh, don't, please just don't. Don't do this. The guy just had a win over Cloud and you already claim him to cannibalize Ward the P4P #2 (yet) and arguably the second best fighter on the planet, skillwise definitely in the top 5 as well, who also cleaned out avery strong SMW division.
Beterbiev is now top 10 LHW and now he is surely a good prospect whom has bright future with a pretty good chance. BUt don't mix the things up. The guy has 6 wins in professional boxing and his best win is Cloud who isn't nowhere near to Ward's level so don't try to hipothetically beat Ward with Beterbiev already...

You're still on this lol, he's the truth bro, you'll see in time.

All right, who beats Beterbiev in the LHW top 10 because I know Stevenson sure as hell doesn't and he's supposed to be the champ.

[bojangles1987]

That was impressive for a guy in his 6th fight.

Like I said in the RBR thread though, LMAO at people who wanted to see Kovalev/Cloud.

If is this a question then I naturally can't know it for sure. But Beterbiev seems to me pretty similar to Kavalev, maybe with a little better defense and better inside game but less mobility and I don't know which one hits bigger... But IMO Kovalev-Beterbiev would be a close fight I mean one of them would KO the other but I don't know which one. As for Stevenson, don't write him off yet. He is a very good counterpuncher who can sens to sleep everyone with one single straight left and he is also athletic and pretty fast, but his defense is weak which can be very bad against a big puncher. And Hopkins... I don't know he is older day by day but since I thik he will beat Kovalev we will see and after that I can predict that how good the Alien would do against Beterbiev.
But as for Ward. Ward is on another level than this version of Hopkins, Kovalev, Stevenson, even Golovkin, and pretty much everybody (there are a few exceptions like Rigo for example)
