Artur Beterbiev 4(4)-0-0 faces Tavoris Cloud 24(19)-2(1)-0.

[FONT=Helvetica, Arial, lucida grande, tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif]29 year old lt heavy Beterbiev is the latest of the Eastern amateur stars trying to jump to the pros. He has a fight today and if he wins, he'll face Cloud next month. As an amateur he won gold and silver in world championsps but was eliminated in 08 Olympics against a Chinese guy by hometown decision. His last years as an amateur he fought at heavyweight but got beaten both in Olympics and world championships by Oleksandr Usyk, who has also recently turned pro

At least as an amateur Beterbiev was an aggressive guy, so he could be the next one to follow along with GGG, Kovalev, Provo and Loma[/FONT]

 

Saw Bertebiev once, and he didn't really impressed me. Seem like a typical stiff euro fighter. Cloud should beat him, if he gives a damn. But he's been so dissapointing lately that I think Bertebiev has a good chance.
