Hard to tell much about Beterbiev from that fight. His opponent was hopelessly overmatched.

 

I didn't see any newfound defensive head movement or footwork from Artur, so I suspect he's about where he was when he got injured. One good thing was that he took his time and didn't throw any wild punches, but then again he was probably taking it easy after hi surgery. I doubt this was some newfound ring generalship.

 

I suspect Artur will get quickly to the top 5, then get taken out by Kovalev. The really interesting fight would be beterbiev vs Stevenson, though Uncle Al will likely not let that happen until he's squeezed every nickel he can out of boring Adonis mismatches.
