My impression has always been that Kovalev has something personal against Artur and will never praise him

That's 100% true, Kovalev would never ever praise Artur. My point was on Gvozdyk, being the best second lhw after Artur

I agree, Gvodsyk is very good...GREAT for boxing that they were both wiling to fight each other...in any event, we broke camp the other day, Artur's fight definitely off....was thinking they were gonna salvage it but ulitimately, NOPE.

Arthur Bertebiev is a Beast.

Is sad how many month of inactivity are going to get Arthur Bertebiev. I hope this not affect him in the important fights.

He fought last year October, and he's probably gonna fight somewhere in 2020, potentially earlier like June or July and a chance for 3 fights in 2020. Beterbiev has been active.

Thank you for the information my friend.

Whoa. I’m Canadian and a fan of Beterbiev but he had two fights in 2015, two fights in 2016, two fights in 2017, one fight in 2018, two fights in 2019. Plus this is a guy with only 15 fights total in his career and is an older guy still trying to get recognition. He’s a unified champion so I don’t fault things. Still considering the circumstances he hasent been “active” anywhere we’d hope with only three fights in the last two years. There’s absolutely no precedent to believe he has a chance for three fights in a seven month span or let anyone else for that matter. It just doesn’t happen. Everyone has a right to be nervous that we will never get to see him fight enough. It’s not like Canelo jumped at a chance to fight him. This is not the level of activity u want from a 35yr old fighter with only 15 fights and having to make a name world wide while fighting out of Canada.

They all are going to less active this year unfortunately.

Right. I’ve heard sum say cards will be stacked and be more frequent because of the lay off. I have a hard time believing it because the fans are never thought of first. They know we will be starving for anything. Plus I think it will be a recovery mode not a deluge of fights once isolation is lifted. I expect fighters will need time to get off the couch and back into shape. There’s going to be no guaranteed date given with plenty of notice either. I don’t expect everyones ducks to be lined up in a row and boxing hitting the ground running. There’s plenty of fighters but only so many managers, promoters, venues, dates, and plus all the other entertainers to compete with. I mean does anyone expect BJS and Canelo to actually fight in May?
