    tyrell biggs and tillman beat Tyson in the ams....we saw how that went....am results mean nothing in the pros

    there have been innumerable amounts of great amateur fighters who couldn't hack it in the pros

    I don't get ahead of myself when anointing fighters bro...sorry....at least let the guy beat top ten opposition before making him out to be some monster and a guy top guys have to fear....the way he looks now, kovalev would body him....so would Stevenson....ward would beat him clearly too.
    what will you say if he demolishes barrera?

      if he wins, he should be ranked top ten and should have a title shot looming in his next couple fights....until then he is still an unproven prospect....its levels to this and looking the part isn't enough, its about who you beat

        beterbiev got dropped by a club fighter....now that says something

        ward isn't known for his power especially at light heavyweight that's bad news for barrera. beterbiev took a flash knockdown no big deal.

                Cloud was done as a top 175er and he got battered in his 2 previous losses....AB closed the casket. He ain't fight top ten 175ers either soooooo

                    Both got hit with shots they didn't see difference is ward is world class, the guy who dropped AB was a club fighter.

                    Whether a fighter is a big puncher or not. The right shot @ the right time can drop or hurt you....beterbiev is a man just like Barrera, not a machine

                    AB has no head movement, his footing needs work and he literally has no jab


                    He could get upset by Barrera, who is hungry, has good straight shots, is longer fighter and plenty strong

                    Its a 50/50 fight IMO
