Comments Thread For: Beterbiev Gets Off The Floor To Knock Johnson Out in Four

This question has probably been answered years ago but I've always wondered - why are Keith Idec's articles always in reverse chronological order, i.e. you read about the end of the fight first then the end of the story is about the first round?

TBH I think he knocks out anyone into next year... I don't see the KO streak ending soon...

Beterbiev is a beast but Bivol is the #1 at 175 for me

It seems like he killing himself making the weight maybe he should move up.

To cruiser? He'd be a midget. He's short for a light heavy.

Beterbiev was fighting regularly when Ward decided to retire
I personally think Beterbiev downfall will be his lack of fighting
And yes Ward wanted no part of him and I don’t blame him, Beterbiev in his fighting days ( because at the time was fighting regularly ) would put a hurting on Ward without a doubt
Just to rugged and animal like for Ward’s rather typical boxing style
Now if Ward could keep him off , boxing his way to a unanimous decision, that would be his only way but the Beterbiev would be hard to keep away

Dude Ward would control Beterbiev like a father playing with his son. Same with Bivol. You may call it boring boxing but he would humiliate him, like Floyd against Canelo.

Johnson did great and had the right plan to take it to him early and close but Beterbiev too strong. I think Beterbiev loses to Bivol on that form and maybe Chickenson too but if the fight goes past 5 rounds Chickenson is toast

Everyone discounts Stevenson's power - it's legit. We saw at 40 he still hurt Jack several times. If Johnson could put Beterbiev down, Stevenson definitely could, and finish it too.

Ward is the most protected overrated fighter the networks ever shoved down our throats, and robbed two Russians both Kovalev twice and Beterbiev from fighting him.

Kovalev proved the better fighter in two fights, but corruption to protect any black USA fighter, or half Black is the agenda vs a Russian .

Beterbiev stops Ward no question. Ward tried to fight Bellew but fake retired until another bum comes along he can hold and headbutt all night. Ward fans have the lowest iQ out of any fanbase except wilder fans.

Is this a joke?? Is this person for real?? Ward beat Kovalev twice, first was close, second wasn't. No conspiracy, it's just called boxing. Did you see Kovalev on Bambi legs from Ward's right hand?? Just accept reality.

SOG would beat the dog shxt out of Biterbiev. the dog shxt!!

Yep for sure , Chickenson might be favourite even and I call him that still as while he showed cojones vs Badou he still ducked Kovalev forever

It's the same formula with all of these guys hyped eastern European style fighters. Avoid slick boxers until they are older so when they lose, they can say they were past prime and avoided. The managers knew this hence they didn't fight big fights until past prime. Kov only one that didn't fall into this trap but he just unlucky to meet ward or he would still be champ.

Ward knew he lucked out against kovalev, he knew sooner or later his 0 would.go if he stayed at 175. Don't be shocked if we see him at cruiser weight now usyk is moving up soon
