Gvozdyk vs Beterbiev is next

[MulaKO]

Pretty sure Beterbiev stopped Gvodzyk in amateurs also.

Yes he did
I’m sure that’s on Gvozdyk’s mind
It’ll be an early one imo

I’m leaning towards Gvodzyk points. I think if there’s a stoppage it will be late.

Fantastic fight though, so many possible outcomes

Hell if a fight. It's a true pick em in my mind.

I’ve followed Beterbiev since he came over and if he’s on form , he will overwhelm Gvozdyk from the get go
Gvozdyk has a hard time fighting off his back foot
And then , of course , there’s Beterbiev’s power which is really scary
Don’t get me wrong , Beterbiev gets hit often , but only to get in there and knock you out
I don’t think he is chinny at all
More like he gets caught , kind of like flash knockdowns

if an ukranian cant stop a chechen nobody can well maybe some kazak or uzbek

figh of the years cant wait

War gvozdyk!!!!!!!

[4truth]

Both are chinny... Not sure about this one as I can see both getting dropped

I knew Beterbiev was a little bit chinny because I’ve seen him buzzed more than once but when did Gvozdyk get buzzed? His chin looked stout against Stevenson.

Yeah I followed both of them as amateurs, strangely I was never that high on Beterbiev in the amateurs. I respected his resume and his power was evident, but I always thought he was one of these former Soviet block fighters who are just much older, stronger, experienced etc. Also thought he looked a little crude at times against Usyk and the Chinese fighter (Zhang I think) that beat him in Beijing. It was only when he turned pro and destroyed Cloud in like his third fight, that I really was like WOW this guys a beast! In hindsight that amateur resume is very impressive.
- Gvodzyk
- Kovalev
- Egan
- Dorticos
- Hunter etc.

I agree on Beterbiev not being chinny, the Page KD was just balance wasn’t even hurt and then Johnson (who can punch) caught him flush and put him down, he was definitely buzzed but he recovered pretty quick, certainly no signs of being chinny based on that.

One thing that would worry me if was in Gvodzyk’s corner is he sometimes tends to go back in straight lines, which isn’t a good idea against Beterbiev.

I do think Gvodzyk has the better technique, faster feet and can control distance better. I think Gvodzyk controls the fight at long range, but if Beterbiev backs him up, he could be in trouble.

Beterbeast is gonna hammer that Nail hard, Gvozdyk is getting flattened

didn't you ppl see the staredown at the weigh in? Gvozdyk was already shakin in his boots, he knows what's comin

Another unification fight with no marketing or notable advertising I can see.

Terrible job by Top Rank of promoting this fight.
