🥊 Smith looked in SEVERE DANGER! 🔥 Beterbiev is an ANIMAL! | The Verdict with Froch & Groves

[@vantheman1238]

Beterbiev is so good. Find is astonishing that certain pundits in the British boxing media were trying to say that Beterbiev was past his best and was on the slide when he fought Yarde. Utterly ridiculous, that they were giving Snith a genuine chance of winning this fight. Based on what? If anything Beterbiev looked phenomenal last night. Smith was brave but was out of his depth.

[@imonahorse]

Totally agree. There was never any danger Callum would win and the optimism of the British press was utterly bizarre. I said it before the fight, Yarde would handle Smith, so this was never a contest.

[@andymccreight3175]

Easy to say in hindsight Smith shouldn't have taken the Beterbiev fight after the inactivity but Artur was inactive too, close to 39 and just had surgery. For all people knew this was the best time to fight him at perhaps his most vulnerable. Turned out he was better than ever.

The bottom line is, that Beterviev is a different animal.

That is why they can carry that strength and power into the later rounds, when other gas. It's genetics.

Yards to good for smith

[@davesmith826]

On Smith, if you see the Canelo fight you'll notice something that Beterbiev obviously picked up on: he doesn't like sustained inside pressure. Yes, he can fight on the inside but there's a world of difference between (A) capable of fighting on the inside and (B) being an inside fighter. Beterbiev is an inside fighter. He's got short arms - shorter than Crawford's in fact - which means the only way he can win when fighting guys with a five or six inch reach advantage over him is by closing the distance, cutting off the ring, and bashing men up. He's absolutely superb at it - world-class in every sense - and would give any light heavy of any generation a run for his money.

Absolutely agree with the Golovkin analogy. That super-intimidating monster who walks you down and doesn’t seem affected by taking one or two at the same time.

[@michaelh.117]

For a long time, I've had Beterbiev over Bivol. The win over Canelo was a surprise (mainly because of how we'd all been conditioned to see Canelo), but I don't think it merited rocketing Bivol up into the higher rungs of the P4P rankings. Canelo was already past his best, I thought, and it's one thing to dominate Fielding and do well against Kovalev; Bivol and Beterbiev are at their own exclusive level above all other 175-pounders. It was a bridge too far for Canelo, yet that's Bivol's primary claim to fame. Like George said, it's been several years (9 fights, I believe) since Bivol's stopped anyone. Meanwhile, Beterbiev's fought the better overall quality at 175 and knocked them all out. But that Canelo fight purchased Bivol a LOT of disproportionate (and I would say exaggerated or distorted) favoritism from commentators and fans. Bivol's an excellent classical boxer, but it's not like he's Pernell Whitaker: I don't see him holding Beterbiev off for 12 rounds.

[@markbraxton1289]

Does that mean Bivol lost those fights because he didn't stop them ..? He will out point Beterbiev too 😊

[@dsurao7693]

[@billybeck]

Inactivity is certainly the word. Smith might have never been elite class, but to be honest (like Billy Joe Saunders) inactivity has plagued their careers so we'll never truly know. Some fighters can handle it, others it destroys. Totally agree with the cobra, throwing Smith in with Beterbiev after 18 months of nothing is crazy!

[@theboxingboy7422]

Tbh the way it started I didn't think smith was gonna last very long but he grinded it out and rode some tough moments but the writing was on the wall from about the 3rd round because beterbiev isn't an explosive one punch KO kinda fighter he has that thudding power especially with that Jab. He basically just batters you and guys eventually just can't live with it because it's relentless and even if he's not landing clean on you the punches to the arms and shoulders etc it still hurts and is tiring for whoever he's facing.

[@สมชายใหญ่เสมอ-ฝ2ฤ]

Never in doubt, I got loads of stick from Brits going against Callum, but it is what it is. BIVOL will have to be punch and footwork PERFECT for 36 minutes against that ANIMAL. Bivol is a great boxer but doesn't have KO power; I can't see past Beterbiev, TBH and we all luv a unification fight.

It was a 18mnt lay off because of waiting for Beterbiev had jaw infection .
