Comments Thread For: Duva: Beterbiev Isn't Unbeatable; Don't Count Fanlong Out

[Corelone]

A light heavy named Fenlong is almost like a heavyweight named Fujimoto.

Why do people always downplay Beterbiev? Beat common opponents as Kovalev better than Kovalev. Was avoided by Browne and many others. Oleksandr Gvozdyk is one of the only fighters this decade to beat a top opponent by knockout (Stevenson), and then Beterbiev did it to him. Then Canelo did it to Kovalev but..... yeah...... I won't even get into that... situation.

Beterbiev is a P4P star. Only prime GGG was similar in recent years to Beterbiev.

But now, LHW has two guys of that quality, Bivol. Just because they're in the same division, a division where no one fought each other all decade so there are no long resumes, doesn't mean they're not top 5 P4P.

Loma, Usyk, Pacquiao, Crawford, Bivol, Beterbiev, Canelo, then Inoue. That's my P4P list. There are 8 P4P level fighters currently active, two are at LHW. That's my opinion.

Right. I would have loved to see Nelo fight him. I’m cdn so I just want him in the biggest fights possible also. He’s rough, almost dirty even. His right is thudding, and breaks people down even if they blocked it. He doesn’t waste a lot of punches or movement. He’s not flashy, but he’s focused on just breaking you down. I understand why people with more to lose would avoid him, but I just want to see how good he is.

Ufff! Canola vs Beterbiev is my dream fight right now. Until ginger has fought and beat Lord Artur then beating a post-prime Krusher counts for little except another alphabet strap. He's definitely avoided which is a b!tch for the fans.

It woulda been too good to be true right? Nelo dropped that title pretty fast for a reason. I always thought Kovalev was a bit overrated. In the sense that watching him I couldn’t quite understand which of his skills made him so “great”. Still it was a good win for Nelo as he ended it suddenly without really even landed too much punishment all night. Wasent unlike Wilder vs Ortis 2. I just want Beterbiev to have the chance to show just how good he is or even get “exposed” if someone can do it. Any result is better than not knowing! Pascal has heart, a fight with him in Montreal could be big, and yes I’m surprised I’m saying that. I just want to see him vs opponents that can be quantified. Joe Smith?

Are you trying to get Canelo killer? 2 rehydration clauses and tainted meat might not work against beterbiev.

Completely agree - we just want the superfights to see who is truly the best and with all the talent at 175 it's a crime we ain't seeing the top guys face off, like, ALL THE TIME. I hate boxing, I love boxing.

If he wants to be a somebody at 175 he HAS to fight the man, and the man is King Artur. If he dies... he dies!
