    Default Artur Beterbiev-Oleksandr Gvozdyk/175 WBC-IBF Unification/ESPN/Friday

    Great fight, under the radar for obvious reasons. Bookies can't split them (basically even money the pair).

    Both can bang and both been decked. Gvozdyk (17-0, 14 KOs) is the better boxer, Beterbiev (14-0, 14 KOs) is a Terminator. Gvozdyk has fought stronger opposition, however, Beterbiev has a stronger beard and a stoppage victory over Gvoz in the amateurs (TKO 2, bloody/busted nose).

    Along with Prograis-Taylor this is the best divisional matchup of the year.

    ((How many here have even heard of them, let alone will watch? ))

    I'll be watching. Just not the live streaming service, but the broadcast later on ESPN.

    Thanks for alerting me though, so I can avoid the forum before then and get that "live" feel.

    Serious question? So they repeat all ESPN+ streamed fights on the main TV service? Or does it depend on the region?

    That's actually a good question and one I'm asking myself. I watch ESPN fights fairly regularly (HBO Boxing sadly is no longer around).... and I hadn't given much thought to ESPN+. Where I live (Eastern Time) it seems like a 4-hour difference, at least on this particular card. Folks on the West Coast I imagine right now have a 1-hour difference, and I gotta wonder how it works for them.

    Looking at the ESPN Friday Night Fight schedule link below...

    http://fightnights.com/espn-friday-night-fights

    .... it looks like most upcoming Friday night fights are either on ESPN or ESPN+, not both. Not sure how this works, but it looks rather cumbersome.


    Frankly, I'd lose interest in watching a televised fight if I already knew the result by hearing about it from those who watched the live streaming service.

    What a brilliant fight but no UK TV showing this?

    The main event is only on ESPN and not ESPN+ as far as a see.

    I have been looking forward to this fight for a while. I think that the winner becomes #1 in the division and the guy beat. My prediction is still the same as it has been since the fight was first signed. I think that Gvozdyk knocks him out because Beterbiev tends to get a bit wreckless.

    With that said, it’s a very close contest and I am not at all confident with my prediction.
