Another Russian bum waiting for the Canelo payday ��

So a unified champion who's knocked out everyone he's faced is a bum? Makes as much sense as waiting for a Canelo matchup that probably never happens. No disrespect to Canelo, but this would be a very dangerous fight for him, and one he probably doesn't win, and thus it probably won't happen. Beterbiev and Bivol is the fight to make.

People I know in real life with covid: zero.

Celebrities I follow who got covid: like 50% of them if not more.

Hmmm.

Must of known not allot of people, this crap is everywhere in major cities

this is the new way to not let the fight happen.. trending reasons and excuses.. look at donaire he repeated the test by himself alone. the officials didn't allow him to re-test but he is on doubt and found out he was negative.. if you are brave enough you can always have yourself tested even if it comes from your own money.. good moves from donaire but an excuses made by beterbiev.

I don't understand Beterbiev's obsession with trying to unify. He'll just get stuck and bogged down with mandatories and voluntaries while the big money fights will pass him by.

Drop the belt that Dienes is mandatory for, let Bivol and Dienes fight for it instead.

In the mean time, go for a fight with Smith Jnr and call out Canelo or unify with Bivol with 3 belts on the line. He'll batter Bivol anyway so why get stuck fighting Dienes for small money when a fight with Joe Smith Jnr is much bigger money (probably with a crowd too).

[Adsy]

Don't know why you think he'll batter bivol, should be a good 50/50 fight

Clenelo is busy fighting yilvildrin or something like that.

Canelo just fought Callum Smith.

Yldirim is his mando, just think of it as Golovkin fighting Szeremeta and give him a pass for it.

After that it's onward to unifying all belts at 168.

Meanwhile Betebiev will spend 2021 fighting...Deines and Meng?

Saw Beterbiev fight Gvozdyk live. He's an animal in the ring, his problem is he's not in the ring near enough. Hard to believe the Campillo fight was 5 and half years ago.

So safe to say he won’t be back until summer.

LOL, what a troll... If anything Beterbiev might be least "Cash-Out" guy in Boxing... His goal is Belts, not names... And I don't think he will back off of anything while the opposite is so very true... I mean if you're a top LHW and you saw what he did to Gvozdyk you'll maybe think twice about it

Also, He was "TESTED POSITIV", no mentions anywhere of any development of related symptoms... So the roadmap would be 14 days quarantine and and a couple more tests while STILL training in a close environment... Could be only a couple weeks delay in his prep...
