Well said
Only Father Time can catch him but I doubt anytime soon , not the way he lives lifeComment

As of right now he's definitely the man in the division. It sucks he's really too old to move down to 168 and too small for cruiserweight really. The light heavyweight division isn't really thick with competition until some people move up from 168Comment

He might be old but he lives a very clean life
He’s not worn out either
Light heavyweight is pretty good division at the moment
In the amateurs he fought as a heavyweight so wouldn’t rule out cruiserweight either
But I’d rather see him unify the divisionComment

King Artur should be in EVERYONE'S top 5 at the very least. My fear is he'll never be involved in the megafights that we all want to see i.e vs Bivol, Canelo, even Kovalev - although Kov is probably on the slide. I can't tell you how impressed I was vs the excellent Gvozdyk. What a fighter he is - got everything and he does it in his own style. Just awesome.Comment

Indeed, Coach Ramsay and other insiders (on the Montreal boxing scene) have been saying that Beterbiev has been very much in demand in Russia to attend different events, promos, etc. He's still based off in MTL but has been travelling a bit more to Russia the past few years.There’s already been discussions about staging this fight in Russia
Beterbiev needs to get his mando out of the way ( Fanlong )
Bivol if he doesn’t get the Canelo fight , which I doubt very much , will have one fight himself and then it’s supposed to happen
Apparently it would be for a good chunk of change as it’s some Russians that are asking for this fight
Both boxers are known quite well from my understanding and also Beterbiev has not fought in Russia since coming to CanadaComment

I agree unifying the division before moving and then if he's capable it would be cool to see how he fairs at cruiserweightComment

Heavyweight in ams is under 91 kg which is under 200 lbs which is cruiserweight division in pros
After Beterbiev (-81kg LHW) and Egor Mekhontsev (-91kg CW) became both European and World champs in 2009 and 2010 new trainer decided to switch them favoring Mekhontsev to win a medal in future Worlds 2011 and Olympics 2012 at LHW, because he knew that Usyk was coming. And because of the favoritism and because Beterbiev was that good that could compete with cruisers Mekhontsev won his bronze in 2011 and gold in 2012 fighting smaller guys and Beterbiev bumped into UsykComment

Clenero won't dare to fight Beterbiev. And the fight won't be scripted like the Kovalev so called "fight". Kovalev is a sell out but he did need that money for his court cases. Kovalev with his pity pat jabs and hardly threw any rights, I've never seen Kovalev fight like that lol.Comment
