    Michel: Chilemba didn't last more than 2 rounds vs Beterbiev in sparring

    Instead of fighting Chilemba on undercard of Pascal-Kovalev Artur Beterbiev will fight on 4 April for Stevenson fight. GYM decided to move and find a better opponent for Beterbiev since according to Ivon Michel, Chilemba didn't last more than 2 rounds in sparring with Beterbiev. Also he will join Jean Pascal as Sparring partner for his fight with Kovalev.

    So we wont see Beterbiev-Chilemba
    But the big question is who will want to fight Beterbiev?

    Ps: still can't post sources since i don't have 15 posts.

    It's too bad Artur has to be involved with that crew. Michel is going to steer him to Haymon and feed him bums for years. RIP career.

      Agreed. Beterbiev is my favorite boxer, but I'm dissapointed I wanted to see this fight. But if he couldn't last 2 rounds in sparring I wonder how long he would in a fight.

        Pascal has to pay Beterbiev handsomely, in order not to be killed in sparring.

          Actualy Pascal can handle Beterbiev in sparring. (sadly can't post a link but go look on google there a short video of their sparring)

            Nonsense. Chilemba is a good fighter.

            Beterbiev is just a

              hereunder you'll find the sparring vid...

              You are right: Pascal can literally "handle" Beterbiev -- who could kill him any moment...

                Looks like Michel is scared to put Beterbiev in with Chilemba.

                Not surprized, Chilemba potentially has the ability to make him miss and look bad.

                Let's see who Michel puts Beterbiev in with instead. I'll go ahead and predict it won't be as highly ranked fighter.

                  I've noticed that Beterbiev misses while being outside... But once he manages to get inside he is actually a demolition man...

                    Well Of course with that Firepower everybody can be killed by that but pascal did last the 6 rounds of sparring with Beterbiev. I think he hit even more harder than Kovalev. (Already saw he hits harder than Stevenson) But there are some factors to take into this Sparring : Pascal had no trainning camp and Beterbiev had shape for a 12 rounds fight with Cloud.
