Alright, so I saw this thing online about Usyk and Beterbiev, and I got really curious. I mean, these two are huge names in boxing, right? So I started digging around to see if Usyk really did beat Beterbiev.
At first, I thought it might’ve been at some big event like the World Championship or the Olympics. But nope, it was way before that. Turns out, they faced each other as amateurs.
So, I looked up their amateur records. And guess what? Usyk beat Beterbiev not just once, but twice! Can you believe it? Two times! But, it wasn’t all one-sided. Beterbiev managed to beat Usyk once too.
The First Fight
- I found some grainy old footage of their first fight. It was on home soil, which must have been a big deal.
- Usyk was slick, moving around, using his jab. Beterbiev, as always, was coming forward, trying to land those bombs.
- In the end, Usyk won by decision.
The Second Fight
- This one was even tougher to find details on. But from what I gathered, it was a similar story.
- Usyk used his footwork and boxing skills. Beterbiev tried to make it a brawl.
- Usyk got the win again.
The Third Fight
- Then came the match where Beterbiev beat Usyk.
- It seems Beterbiev finally figured out how to use his power.
- He landed a big shot, and that was it. Beterbiev won this one.
Now, here’s the interesting part. They might actually fight again, but this time as pros, and for a heavyweight title! I read somewhere that they both expect to continue their rivalry. Imagine that, going from amateurs to fighting for the biggest prize in boxing.
It’s crazy to think how things can change. One day you’re fighting in some small amateur tournament, the next you’re on the world stage. Anyway, that’s all I found out. Pretty cool, huh?
