Comments Thread For: Beterbiev's Coach: A Fight With Canelo Will Never Happen

Height is meaningless when it comes to weight.

Callium Smith 6'3 168lbs
Sebastian Fundora 6'6 154lbs
Mike Tyson 5'10 230lbs
Rob Easter 5'11 140lbs
Terance Crawford 5'8 147lbs


Not every fighters body is the same.

Yeah but you still have your ideal height arm length per class.

I've seen many many fighters get told to go down or up from their trainers.

What is your point that porter can make 160? I’ve never disputed that beterbiev can’t make cruiser. If you’re calling beterbiev a weight bully because he fought at higher weights in the amateurs then you’d have to call porter and many others weight bullies too. Ams have same day weigh-ins unlike the pros, in fact the weigh-ins are usually a couple hours before a bout. In the pros they have time suck down then rehydrate. Beterbiev is a moderately sized LHW, there’s no reason for him to move up.

Canelo jumped up two weight classes to fight an over the hill, chinny Kovalev who just went to war with yarde and had only several weeks in camp. If canelo wanted to put his stamp on 175 then he could’ve unified with beterbiev, Bivol, or any other top 10 guy in lhw. I’m not even sure he’d get passed joe smith or eleider Alvarez.

Quit **** riding and learn to read between the lines, you dope.

So move up two weight classes and go right at number one who is even HUGE for that weight class??? And no tune-ups??

Man your guys HATE for Canelo makes you go full rtard.

[Shadoww702]

Funny how Canelo only has ppl DEMAND to fight the best at higher weight classes right away?

*** says he does fight Biev and wins?? This these salty @ss haters be like now he's got to fight Dorticos and then Usykk.

Sht will never stop with the haters...

He gets full credit if he fights PRIME champion in LHW or SMW.. he will never fight Beterbiev or Bivol unfortunately. Too much risk for him. Bivol is the same age as him so this fight will never happen. He MiGHT fight Beterbiev in 2-3 years when Artur in decline / shows vulnerability/ past his prime. This is usual tactic for pednelo and his team

Canelo would close a lot of his critics mouths if he took and won this fight.

When he was busy cleaning Khan's clock not many (including me) would have thought he'd go on and fight GGG and Kovalev so I wouldn't completely rule it out. But Beterbiev seems a little too close to his prime for that to happen any time soon. Hope I'm wrong!

I won't lie he would but I don't think Canelo will take that leap.

Bivol fight makes a heck of a lot of sense. Even at 168 as Bivol one of the smaller LHW

Either weight I would drop a couple grand on the over probably 11.5 rounds.

If I had my pick

1. Charlo
2. Bivol
3. Binavidez
4. Biev
5. Pascal

I wouldn't mind Andrade or Saunders but think it would be boring fights. More like sparring. They can't hurt Canelo and won't let Canelo even close to exchanging.

Be like dancing in the boxing ring.


Pascal might be an odd pick but their styles would make one heck of a fight.

CanCharlo Cinco De Mayo 2021 in Houston or even Jerry's World

If Canelo wanted a piece of Beterbiev he would've stayed at 175 instead of messing about with no names at 168.

This.... He could have also challenge Bivol for the WBA belt... Yet he vacated... Sissy...

Agree, Beterbiev's an absolute beast.

[Larry the boss]

Beterbiev vs. Canelo is almost an unfair matchup. Beterbiev could truly hurt Canelo. If Canelo beats Arthur in this prime condition, he balances a legacy of unfair advantages, bad judging and mismatches.

Unfortunately for Canelo, this is the scrutiny you earn when you have a big name take a dive to get you a belt you didn’t earn. Then have your promoter proclaim you just beat the best at 175 when the guy who took a dive was washed. Let’s see it... why because Oscar Delahoya begged for the damn thing.

Beterbiev is 35 man, so is he prime or not?? just want to make sure we are all on the same page here

[kafkod]

That’s not right. Beterbiev beat Kovalev twice as an amateur.

True. The article is factually incorrect there.
