He did but i guess now that he's had a lot of time to recover from the punishment, he's only 33 and probably wants to make some more money

Gvozdyk is a tougher style for Smith than Beterbiev IMO. Beterbiev probably KO's Smith, but Smith can connect more on Beterbiev.

I like that the Nail is coming back if he’s healthy. Beterbiev is always going to give him problems, but he’s got a shot against anyone else at 175 or 168.

I love Beterbiev but his chin is iffy for how aggressive and physical he fights. He’s going to get cracked sooner or later.
We’ll never know, but I think prime Kov would have been able to keep him off of him with his jab, and would have won that fight by either a close decision or a late stoppage.

I agree
Definitely one of the top what if fights of the past few years. It's crazy to think that they're roughly the same age. A true 50/50 fight and I would've favored beterbiev to break kovalev down and stop him.

Damn, Beterbiev already 36.. but just 16 fights.
Would he get the winner of Gvodzyk/Smith ?

Prime Kovalev was special. Too bad it was short-lived.

You think before he took those Ls vs Ward he would've been able to beat Beterbiev and Adonis?

Yeah Kov would of. DAMN I didn’t know Beterbiev was 36 already?!

Kovalev actually had good boxing skills to go with his explosiveness ... decent footwork, fought well from distance. Ward just happened to expose the fact that he couldn’t take too many body shots.

Not only the body shots but the physicality as well which is why I'd pick beterbiev if we are talking prime for prime

They should fight each other after they both lose their next fight.

Jermell Charlo-Brian Castano is a done deal for July 17 on Showtime Championship Boxing. This will be a slugfest, and Castano, with his relentless pressure, is a live dog. Will crown first 154-pound undisputed champion in four-belt era. Jermell can add to growing resume
