For me... according to my criteria, Artur is the most murderous fighter... he has all the qualities... not only boxing but also human qualities, character, etc..

[@ilyasovj]

How come Beterbiev is not considered the best in his weight class? When Gvozdyk was WBC champion and lineal champion he was considered the best. He beat him. He has beaten another champion but, still, he is considered the second best. Why? Because someone beaten a middleweight guy called Canelo. I really respect his last sentences. I think he clearly heard the chanting "Ukraine, Ukraine,..." and he thanked all the fans including the Gvozduk's suggesting that today he won but he (Gvozdyk) could have won another day. True champion and sportsman!

[@drinfernodds]

I think right now it's between him and Bivol. Bivol's power is nowhere close to Artur's, but his skill and defense is top notch. Once they fight, it'll clear up who's #1.

Yea it was a shame nail( sorry I never his last name correct) was a very underrated in terms of toughness, too tough, but beterbiev was even more underrated in skills, u hear one thing and watch another, they talk about artur plodding forward like he’s lerch. But I watch beterbiev, just look at the end of rds 1 2 and 4, he’s baiting nail in, then turning him, then landing a 3 inch power jab going backwards as a counter, then he uses footwork going forward, fients a 1, 2, steps to his left to cut the escape of nail, then fient to the right overhand counter over the jab of nail, steps back, weaves head back to avoid the jab countering the fient then snaps a counter power jab himself followed by a murderous right hand uppercut nail ducks into cause the nail smartly and correctly assumes beterbiev will counter again over the top! That’s like the highest level of skill u will see on any level,considering these guys are light heavies, and moving their feet constantly, this is disgusting people calling him a power puncher solely, sad nail retired, he had more to give, considering his counter I’d under attack though I get it. Bivol is def great at concentrating at a unbelievable level of discipline, but artur f physically ok is just too good too strong and faster and smarter than people think

I think people really underestimate Artur’s boxing when they said he’s an easier opponent for Canelo stylistically than Bivol. Artur has a good sense of distance and timing and he hits hard. Even though he doesn’t bounce on his feet the way Dmitry does, he’s still a good big boxer with a punch. The fight against Bivol showed Canelo that there are limits to everything (and don’t even bring up Kovalev fight as he was a completely different Kovalev that night).

[@MrMidnight92_]

Bivol is a small light heavyweight but Artur is big light heavyweight with power in either hand. It’s the constant pressure and awkward punch placement that gets opponents. His awkward fighting style and power gets his opponents because you can’t figure him out.

This is my statement for Bob Arum about Artur Beterbiev. We all know, you are the great promoter, you are the honest one. You are powerful and influential person in boxing. You are the Thanos of boxing Universe. Artur is the main brilliant stone in your infinity gauntlet, most powerful. But he has his own dream, he has a hope of all his life- to become the undisputed unified champion. He doesn't ask you for much money, he doesn't trying to keep a foot in both camps. Artur worked hard for all his life, he devoted his life to box. He's never been crazy about money, cars, gold, women, yachts. He is our pride and glory. He just wants to be respected and honourable, as he deserves. We all have seen "The knight's tale" with Heath Ledger. Artur is William Thatcher of our time. The guy, noble at heart, born in Cheapside, should get his real name: Sir Artur Beterbiev. Bob, you are not a young man. You've done and seen a lot. You are not a poor man. I just want, you, one day, could say: "I helped this guy to make his dream true". That' s not about money, how much DAZN or ESPN pay. That is about brilliant, who needs the last, final touch, to become one of the greatest. Artur deserves to become the glory hall member. And you can be the reason of it, if you stop thinking about money. No one then will remember you as a rich man. Everybody will say: that was man, who made Artur, Beterbiev, the undefeated, the undusputed, unified champion of the world with 100% KO ratio. Bob Arum, I hope you will read this and think about it. Please, after Yarde, find a way for Artur to unify with Bivol as soon, as it is possible. Artur is the Stephen King's last Gunslinger of boxing, honour him, please

scared? at this level i dont think that is great choice of word,lol!! Its more like a chess matched

[@hewhay8464]

I really wanna see Canelo vs Beterbiev . Hopefully Canelo willing to make it happen

[@ird2607]

no way Alvarez gets in there with Beterbiev, it would be a suicidal move, and he’s gotta know it too...

[@JP-zx2lo]

He already tried before but didn't work out don't be surprised if canelo comes for the 175 belts after makabu

[@JuanMartinez-mq3rd]

How about now, will canelo fight beterviev?

[@darrentheeagletill5858]

He lost to bivol who is a technical boxer. Not known for kos. Beterbiev will finish him

[@ba10mob69]

Im sure you dont want to see this fight anymore lmao

Monster fight...beautiful fistic poetry.

[@texrex3]

The first rules knockdown was a push, but I admit I’m late to the party on the champion. He’s the top dog for sure!!

Artur is a legendary intense fighter 🥊🥊🥊🥊

[@omgurheadsgone]

Yay thanks!

[@mariosabourin6965]

In the four first rounds, Andre Ward at the first round to Gvodzyk and the next three to Berterbiev, while two of the judges had it the opposite on the score card.

[@SpiritFearon]

Excellent fight breakdown really enjoyed watching this, keep up the good work🎉

Beterbiev made ward look like a clown

[@stefall27]

Love that reverse decision.... I could care less as a beterbiev fan, but like fairness

[@alexanderlumain2549]

referee is incompetent, keep warning beterbiev for pushing kvozdik down.. beterviev wanted to fight but kvozdik wanted to clinch, what would a man do.

[@PillowKaraoke]

What a fight. 🥊🥊🥊

Que buena pelea! Wow this is a great fighter!

[@calmac9720]

Great commentary team

[@hannibalbeats24]

24:40 Joe makes a statement that couldn't be any further from the truth. Yes, we as fans want the best fights every single time but the reality is that these guys are human and this sport is very dangerous. He says when 2 fighters face off it doesn't hurt anyone and both guys win. Well Alex lost and ended up retiring... before this fight Alex had retired Adonis Stevenson and he almost died... after ward vs kovalev ward retired and kovalev has never been the same inside and outside the ring.

[@liahfox5840]

Beterbiev reminds me of a real life Clubber Lang. The fight perdiction: "Pain"

[@SacredGusto]

We're all hyped up for the fights but calm down, Mr. Desert Storm.

[@Ahmed_Asif]

38:24 I think recently because of Terrence Crawford and Teofimo Lopez, everybody is criticizing Bob Arum but that man over there made careers of innumerable boxers. Boxers who came from very humble beginnings. Good bless you Bob🥊Arum Sir.

[@Keboomrang]

Beterbiev won the IBF under EOTTM.... not under Arum!

[@maratisakov7481]

Темп задал БТР, бой прошёл кость в кость, или поражение в юниорах дал о себе знать или мандраж, Гвоздику нужно было темп взвинчивать и держать дистанцию тогда мог бы осилить, поздравление Битербиеву отработал отлично 👍

@@saleh2749 He is too smooth. That's why he looks boring. I like Bivol fight because he rarely clinch. Those who want to learn boxing, will like Bivol because of his technical abilities

artur beterbiev vs dmitry bivol is a 50/50 fight. beterbiev by ko or bivol by decision. betting on bivol vs beterbiev would be extremely hard because the outcome is hard to predict. i really want to see this fight.

[@jamescaleb9676]

its not 50 50. beterbiev has a much better resume and will crush bivol.

[@soulexee]

@@jamescaleb9676 yeah later on i realized that, beterbiev will indeed crush bivol.

Canelo beats him remind urself to talk shit after he wins🤣

[@luffymonkey9552]

Ez work for nelo

[@th3realghost785]

Remind myself after Canelo wins? He won't fight Beterbiev. Just like he won't fight Benavidez, Hell he wouldn't even fight Andrade or Charlo. Would much rather the big challenge of Makabu right?

[@gsa2121]

@@th3realghost785 wtf I can't believe the ignorance on you. So Canelo has to be up and down from 168 and 175 fighting 4 times a year for you little diva to be pleased with Canelo?? 😂 he's not even worrying about the charlos or bumdrade. They don't even fight each other. They're just the social media Champs. Only reason you even know their names.

[@matthewbaxter9005]

Beterbiev v Canelo. Get it on. Props to both fighters but beterbiev is relentless and seems to have the full skill set and the stamina to of a bull.
