Beterbiev is very humble but there is a ruthless dedicated boxer underneath all that. He will train like he always does for this fight which is he gives 100%. This fight is a massive mismatch, Beterbiev will beat Yarde up hurt him and stop him.

I think Yarde has a chance for the upset. Beterbiev is a bit chinny these days and needs to take Yarde seriously. It's honestly a good time for Yarde to fight him. Worth the risk. As a betting man I'm placing my bet on Yarde Ko.

Growing up, many of us would have had a 'mythical' local hard man in our town/city. People talked about the local legends he'd dealt with over the years. Then one day you saw him in action [maybe at a pub/club, or in a pre-arranged straightener] and realized the hype was real. This is Beterbiev. Best interview I've seen with him. If he fights Usyk it'll be the 2 scariest men in boxing facing off. Their fight at the Olympics was high level; definitely worth watching.

beterbiev fought at heavyweight in amataurs and knocked people spark out at the weight,when usyk was fighting at 160lbs in the amataurs beterbiev was fighting in weight classes above him,he also beat uysk and dropped him in one of there fights so his power is proven regardless,so no uysk is not bigger than beterbiev he might be couple inches taller but thats as far as it goes beterbiev is naturally the bigger stronger of the two, just one fighter choose to move up why one fighter decided to move down but on paper there the same haha no1 beats beterbiev easy and hes defo not a whole new level to beterbiev, and people saying its not the amataurs anymore? good job because uysk was getting beat by guys like shawn porter hahahaha

They met in amateur days and both fighters have evolved massively since then. Headgear prevents nothing except cuts and bruises it doesn't have any protection regarding concussion delivered via strikes. Remember Usyk managed to completely clear out the cruiserweight division and has now fought and twice defeated one of the largest and hardest hitting heavyweights in this era. Beterbiev has a lot of amazing talent, just as much as Usyk I believe but I think Usyk has a degree more of a ring IQ and a problematic opponent for anyone. But no one is unbeatable, even those currently undefeated

I hope we get a Bivol unification bout before any move up to heavyweight and Usyk, which would be an unreal fight now that they are both made men in the pro ranks.
