Canelo vs Beterbiev IS THE BEST FIGHT TO MAKE!

[MisterPullman]

He wouldnt go anywhere near beterbiev. Hes a legit world champ in his prime, canelo doesnt fight them any more

Would be hilarious if Canelo decides he wants more and sends an offer to Beterbiev's team

Both Kovalev and Beterbiev are Espn fights if im not mistaken.

So I doubt DAZN cares if Beterbiev is well known and probably prefers he isn’t.

How about DAZN ponies up the cash to stage Kovalev Vs Beterviev to give him some profile, no one knows who he is outside of the hardcore fans. If it's true that DAZN has Kovalev under contract for his next two fights that should be easy to make.

I'd advise Canelo to fight one of the 168lb champions, either BJS or Callum Smith would be ideal. If he goes down to 160 I wouldn't be upset if he throws up a curve ball and ends up fighting Murata in Japan before taking on a more challenging fight.

Awww, it’s the LDBC girlies crying about 10lb morning weigh in limits that the “best” org imploys. Imagine if every fighter who lost in attempting an IBF title or defending it cried about its rule as the reason why they lost...lol

I hear you yapping but I don't hear you claiming he will fight Beterbiev without a clause.

I'd give Saul props if he did. And if it happened, win or lose I'd respect him, as would a lot of fans who dont care for him.

That’s not how challenges work! How many times did Beterbiev defend his IBF with the 10lb rule?

Canelo would impose a penalty like Jacobs, yet Danny waived it off and paid the fine. Beterbiev has the opportunity to KO Canelo with a clause as well.

So the question is, can Beterbiev beat Canelo with the 10lb morning limit he always practiced before gaining the WBC with unification?

Kovalev doesn't have two fights left in him IMO. Beterbiev/Kovalev would be a ****ing murder at this point.

And the only way Canelo fights Beterbiev is at 164 or some ****** ****. Guy has rode catchweights and clauses from 150 to 175.

Well Kovalev himself said he is not retiring. DAZN has two fights left with Kovalev if you believe Arum that they have him under contract for two additional fights if he lost against Canelo.

Canelo fought Kovalev at 175lbs, no catch-weight. The rehydration clause was fair at 10lbs the morning of the fight. I'd expect the same for Beterviev.

Bob Arum himself stated that if Kovalev lost to Canelo he would have two comeback fights on DAZN. They might as well get one good fight out of him against either Beterviev or Bivol to help retain subscribers.

"Well that is not correct," said Arum when asked about the report. "What is correct is that we will wait for the announcement for the fight but Kovalev, if he loses to Canelo, he will have two come back fights (on DAZN) but if he wins he goes back to Top Rank and ESPN."

You're right it would make more sense to match up Kovalev with a DAZN fighter (Bivol), but if they anticipate that Canelo would eventually fight Beterviev, it would be beneficial to help build up his profile as well.

I see Canelo vs Beterbiev like Provodnikov vs Bradley, and yes, Canelo can get dropped, but as Bradley said “Canelo got dog in him.”

Keep Canelo away from beterbiev, thats all I'm going to say about this

Beterbiev and Gvozdyk look slow compared to Canelo. Fastest elite LHW is Bivol... though Bivol vs Pascal...not impressed. I always thought Barrera was slow as fook too
