Why not make it 7 years
Beterbiev's inactivity & injuries are hurting his legacy
Beterbiev has a better legacy than Bivol at the weight. I would rather see a fully fit Artur fight than him taking on anyone half fit. That would be cheating the fans of a historic event in boxing.
I also think Beterbiev has a better legacy than Bivol at 175 right now
I also want to see a fully fit Beterbiev fight than anyone half fit
I'm not saying Beterbiev should have fought injured
I'm saying that these injuries are hurting his personal legacy
He's nearly 40
He's only fought once a year at this point since 2022
If he loses to Bivol he only has the Gvozdyk win as an elite victory
If he beats Bivol it's another elite win
But are 2 elite wins enough to bring him into the ATG talk?
Without the injuries he might have had another half dozen fights
His legacy could have been so much better
I was not being argumentative and my tone should not have been read that way.
I should add these more often.
Reminds me of this funny video below.
