    Well him being on PBC gives him more exposure than the rest that is for sure. Especially when they start to put him on NBC or even ESPN.

    Lomachenko and Ievgen Khytrov are younger and still in their 20's so they will have more time to develop into Stars. Lomachenko has that "IT" factor in the ring. While he is not a Knockout Artist he is just highly SKILLED and can do a little bit of EVERYTHING and he fights at an incredible pace. Lomachenko has the goods to be P4P King one day. Also he has a style that will still be effective once he starts to move up because he is SKILLED he is not just depending on Power and scoring KO's
    yes but there is also people who will not like him simply for being a pbc fighter they dont get the benefit of the doubt like others. its a very weird thing but its sadly true

      Don't believe any of that, it is only a few bitter struggling boxing writers and a few internet trolls who make a big deal and do all they can to bash PBC. What they think or say really don't determine who becomes the next crossover star. Mayweather is HATED and it is not a bigger star in boxing right now than he is

      Beterbeiv is in a better situation than that of the fighters who only fight only on HBO because Beterbeiv can be showcased on Multiple Networks which means more exposure which means him fighting in front of a audience who don't care about or is not familiar with the Childish BS on this forum and from Boxing Writers who hate PBC because they can't get Credentialed to their Events. For the most part the Average/Casual Sports fans don't know of nor do they care about any of this crap that we talk about on this forum daily and that might actually be a good thing

          Maybe yes. To be honest I think he is better and more exciting than Kovalev or Golovkin. He has yet to prove the former but I think he has better movement, less robotic and is more well rounded than Kovalev or GGG.
          Take away their range and the lead from Kovalev and Golovkin and they will be shot, there's not much adaptability in them imo, on the other hand Beterbiev is less mechanic can fight from more ranges he isn't as set up heavy, set up based as GGG or Kovalev, he can lounge in if it's needed he can fight on the inside very well if it's needed and I think he can fight pretty good on the backfoot too though his obvious strength is his forward game.
          So he has yet to prove this but I think he is better than Kovalev or Golovkin.
