Isaac Chilemba vs. Artur Beterbiev

[Spray_resistant]

Beterbiev might have a hard time with him, Chilemba isn't pretty to watch but he is awkward and skilled in his own right.

There have been rumors for a week or two, but Dan Rafael just posted that article today.

The rumors before today did not involve HBO, but now it looks like they want the fight.

Yes they did. Michel responded last week saying Beterbiev was already scheduled to headline a show as the main event fighter in February and it would be tough to take two fights in such a short time period.

"Chilemba-Beterbiev
Glazkov-Cunningham
Pascal-Kovalev"

And all three russians prevail

[Butt stuff]

Chilemba by KO, Beterbiev doesn't posses the mouth, nor unstoppable knockout power that Tony BOMBER Bellew wields. Bellew is but a mythical spartan warrior amongst mere men.

"I'M READY TO DIE IN THE RING"

Such bravery from Bellew.

Has Chilemba ever been defeated decisively?! His record is pretty good.. Has Draws with Bellew & Oosthuizen, beat Miranda, Vlasov, Adamu & Grachev!

Beterbiev in 8 fights will have fought:

Chilemba

That is impressive!

That Grachev fight was brutal... target practice.

Anyway.. I think the bigger question is... if they make this fight... does that mean that Main Events and GYM are working together?

Doesn't matter because it comes down to Stevenson and Haymon

[IronDanHamza]

I wanted this fight for Kovalev in the past but this is a good fight too.

Chilemba's a good solid fighter.

But Bererbiev is a beast.

[Sugar Adam Ali]

Would be interesting fight...

I think chilemba's experience will prevail in a close fight...

[Foreign Soil]

Chilemba has a nice control of range, but still gets hit and he has no punch. Beterbiev by stoppage.

[John Locke]

Great fight, Beterbiev isn't messing about!

[MDPopescu]

Yes they did. Michel responded last week saying Beterbiev was already scheduled to headline a show as the main event fighter in February and it would be tough to take two fights in such a short time period.

... "Da Russian beast" needs big names and more rounds into the ring... Beterbiev has only fought less than 15 round in 7 fights...
