Comments Thread For: Reynoso: Kovalev's Better; Why Wouldn't Canelo Fight Beterbiev?

[theface07]

I agree at the time of signing the fight because Biterbiev was dropped by a scrubbed who some reason stepped off the gas??? But not now! Biev is the best LHW. Kov. #2

You are a typical modern boxing fan for thinking because someone gets dropped in a fight they aren't world level. At one time in boxing, great fighters got dropped and no one called them trash because they fought often and never rejected a challenge. You are a bi-product of the Mayweather era.

My bad here you go...

Go to minute 36 20 seconds.

No worries.

I see that he was clearly buzzed, hardly 'saved by the bell' though, that shot was right on/after the bell, we don't know how he would have reacted to being buzzed, some fighters fold others fight on and recover like champs.

That hat probably holds no more than 5 names. Add Nelo to that hat.

Sure. Add Inoue to that list three times. You're acting like this is the first time a guy has moved up in weight to fight a champ.

And sure, throw Nelo in there before the fight happens. Throw Mikey Garcia in there too then.

Beterbiev reminds me of David Lemieux. He's a come-forward brawler with no defense. This will work as long as he can walk through his opponents and manage to land punches. Will not work against smarter or tougher opponents. Here's how I see the LHW division currently:

1. Kovalev
2. Beterbiev
3. Bivol

Bivol is technically talented but lacks toughness. Maybe he should go down a division?

New to boxing? Or did you just watch a round of Gvozdyk/Beterbiev and suddenly become an expert? That's one of the dumbest comparisons I've seen on here, and that says a lot.

Boxing is clearly not your thing

[AKAcronym]

Beterbiev/Canelo would look similar to Golovkin/Canelo 1, just not as favorable as it was to Canelo.

[ShoulderRoll]

he HASN'T beaten beterbiev though so there's need for you to cry I'll tell you one thing if clenelo waits till beterbiev is 40 to fight him he won't get credit fans know he waited till he got old like he waited for ggg and kovalev to get old.

Naw. Even if Canelo fights and beats Beterbiev next...guys like you still wouldn't give him his credit.

It's the nature of you haters.

I love you and your lack of a counter argument aside from "derrr your dumb."

Please, enlighten me to Beterbiev's technical mastery which I am clearly missing.. Tell me how he is not a plodding, one dimensional fighter who throws power punches.. They are the same exact type of fighter.

I will say that Beteriev is obviously more effective at this point in his career than David Lemieux is, if that's where your undefined point of contention lies.
