Comments Thread For: Artur Beterbiev's Promoter Targets Winner of Ward vs. Kovalev

[Redd Foxx]

What promotion is Beterbiev fighting under? I don't usually follow that stuff too closely but boxing these days is like video game consoles, guys can't play together if they're not on the same system. I'm trying to figure out who he'll be allowed to fight.

GYM aka group Yvon Michel and Haymon just like stevenson but Haymon aim bringing all 4 belts under PBC so out of question he fight stevenson for now...

[whatismyname]

why do folks blame Stevenson when Kov dropped out of the last purse bid?

[Sledgeweather17]

once again this guy wont mention stevenson, but then again who at 175 does say that name unless their fuggin lying about wanting a purse bid.

Nah it wouldn't be smart for Haymon to make em fight right now. The smart play is the one they are going for. Have Beatable snatch all the other titles from Ward/Kovalev, and then have a huge ass inhouse unification between Beatable and ******man.

It's the same thing they tryna do at Welterweight and have basically done at 154. All the title holders except Canelo are Al Haymon at 154, though there's the sad obstacle of them being twins/stable mates.

At 147 you have Thurman and Garcia as champions, and you have Spence gunning after the IBF title. The goal here is simple, Haymon wants all his fighters to collect the belts first so that all the big unification bouts can be done in house.

So no, Beatable won't mention ******man any time soon, at least not until he beats either Ward or Kovalev...if he can.

If Artur had better experience, I would have to give him a really good shot a both. For now, I give him a decent shot based off their outings against each other just because of his natural attributes. He needs work on some things but he's no ****ing joke.

Beterbiev - A pure talent

I believe that Beterbiev would demolish Ward in the ring... Beterbiev is smart, unpredictable, and possesses dynamite in both fists... Remember that he beat Kovalev (who beat Ward by at least 3 rounds) TWICE in the amateur ranks... Yes, he lacks professional experience but he makes it up in determination, ferocity and game plan variations... The guy is a scholar and a thinker... He is the future of the light heavyweight division... and as exciting to watch as GGG .

That trash got dropped by Jeff Page jr....he's garbage.

[therealpugilist]

shouldnt he have to beat a top ten 175er before he gets a title shot...he is merely a prospect and there are more deserving guys who should get a shot before him....175 is loaded

[therealpugilist]

i think he beats both

based off what? he hasnt beaten any top ten contenders and he got dropped by a club fighter....lacks defense, no head movement and loops his shots.....he is just another overrated puncher until he proves himself in the ring
