    He just wouldn't be able to sustain that for 12 rounds.

    Arthur vs. Gassiev or Usyk would be interesting.
    I keep seeing people call him "Arthur" but it's Artur. Show the man some respect. We don't call Deontay, Dante. Well Mike Tyson does but he's a special case lol.

      Kovalev looks a bit bigger than Canelo, so that argument is not with merit. Kovalev is on the slide, but hits arguably almost as hard as Beterbiev. But yes, Artur us a tough fight for anyone. I saw an amateur fight where Usyk beat Beterbiev on points. Beterbiev can be hurt and outboxed, but he's deadly with his power. He is as Mayweather said about GGG, no special effects. But he sure has special power.

        Kovalev is taller but Kovalev fought at LHW even from the amateurs. Beterbiev has fought at HW at amateurs.

        He's the stronger built fighter of the two, plus clearly fresher.

        I don't see how anyone from 175 and below is beating Beterbiev, he is a bear of a man and you basically have to knock him out cold to beat him. I don't think Canelo has that type of power.

          Beterbiev is a bigger, strong and a fresher version of Golovkin. Who also hits way harder. Seeing the troubles Canelo had against Golovkin, you can safely deduce he would got obliterated by Beterbiev. It would damage the sport.

            They ****** every $$$ out of Canelo because he is Mexican and has (he's losing them) Mex fans
            Weight has everything to do with mayne, it's why we have weight classes.

                Not fair for TR to keep the best LHW behind closed doors. Zurdo is not active and was promised big fights in this decision to leave his title and move up to LHW. Havent seen or heard anything about him. Too long of a layoff is never good. I've been watching Arum try to sabotage this kid for 2 years now. Hes the best TR has in the stable period! What is their problem it must be a personal thing. As a fan that aint fair. To boxing around the world that aint fair. So Arum shouldnt use the word fair in anything he speaks about!
                That's the matchup that I'd like to hear Arum mention - I'd think that would be a fight to make with Canelo trying out LHW.

                As far as them sabotaging Zurdo - I don't think his style really connects with fans, he's never blown away anybody in any fight he's had and he's had plenty of TV appearances. Not sure what else they could have done - he's still kind of a "dark horse", not a bad position

                  He lost to GGG twice *******.

                  What about liam smith and rocky fielding?

                  That's right sit down and shut up.
