What is next for Beterbiev and Gvozdyk

Post by Cent0089 »

I think unification between Beterbiev and Bivol is a logical step. But Top Rank also have Gilberto Ramirez and Jesse Hart, which would not be disapointment too. Do Gvozdyk need easier fight first or compete versus elite asap?

Yes, Beterbiev either needs a unification against Bivol, while Kovalev is busy, or a fight against some top competitors. Defending two belts against the likes of his previous opposition will be too impudent.

Gvozdyk, on the other hand, needs an easy fight after such a beating.

I dunno. Pascal has WBC Silver, maybe this will contribute in getting a shot.

Beterbiev has a mandatory with an Asian guy I've never heard of. Gvodzyk needs a rest and a tune up.

For Beterbiev, anyone with a belt.

For Gvozdyk, moving on from Teddy Atlas.

As a fan, 2 I’d like to see next:

Artur Beterbiev vs. Dimitry Bivol

Oleksandr Gvozdyk vs. Eleider Alvarez

I think we gotta talk about Zurdo Ramirez entering this picture somewhere along the line here pretty soon as well
