I feel Bivol will probably beat him by a KO. Beterbiev is a very agressive man, he can`t fight on back foot. usually guys fight Bivol in survival mode for 12 rounds. Go watch his last 3 fights. That is what makes casuals believe Beterbiev beats him easily.
Beterbiev will try to kill Bivol, he will get countered and stopped in the late rounds.
War Wolverine aka Beterbiev!

The McCloud fight - You have to lock both his arms in a clinch or on the ropes. He inflicts the most damage I have ever seen with one arm free.
As far as Bivol, his management put it off for 5 years so let's see if it pays off.
I'd pay to train with Beterbiev and Crawford.
He really does remind me of Wolverine. You hurt him and it just seems to make him pour it on even harder. Really precise too. That 4th fight he even got the finish in southpaw.
Put this on the AJ/Ngannou card! Zhang vs Hrg 2, Kabayel/Sanchez, Parker/Ruiz 2, Dubois/Joyce 2 Wilder/Miller and bring back Opetaia!
Meh, I want Bivol - Beterbiev as the main event.

Just Cloud not McCloud. But yeah, that was when we first got the message that Artur was exceptional. Granted Tavoris was never great and was kinda gifted his title but he was solid and tough and had world level experience.. To see him just ragdolled and broken in a couple rounds was an eye opener, the power Artur can generate at such short range is off the charts.

Be there when Bivol takes these belts.
If he's still there at the end of 12th he might as well outpoints Artur... I doubt he will be though... The list of Elite Boxers who had to bend for Artur will grow again next week, so there you go...:cool:
That excuse wasn't good enough when Adonis Stevenson went to showtime for more money instead of fighting Kovalev.
The money angle is always good enough for me. In that instance, what wasn’t good enough for me was team Kovalev petitioning the WBC for a mandatory for Stevenson’s belt, getting it and then refusing to take part in the purse bid.
Great clash of styles between 2 P4P ... Sadly, Bivol will have to bend and fold like all the others... Knee for the KING !

You need to tell the truth:

Jokes on you toe tapper, I’m not even a Haney fan. Again, anyone (in this case you) who spends all his time and emotion on another man (in this case Haney) is a straight up pha66ot.
Tell the whole truth, the reason Beterbiev was able to unify is because the fighters he unified against were under the same promotion he was. It’s the same with almost every one of today’s unified champions.
Yes and Bivol had a chance to join them there.
Explain how a more than 2 year wait (6 for this one) isn’t considered a duck or aging someone out all of a sudden
Explain how a 39 year old is all of a sudden a good matchup when for years we kept hearing how +35 year olds are past it, old, retirement bound. Just last year we kept hearing and are still hearing how fighting a 40 year old was the most terrible matchup ever. Is there going to be a huge gap between a 39 1/2 year old vs a 40 year old? Am I missing something?
Explain, and I’ll leave this site. Or don’t explain and you’re just another idiot hypocrite with a million and one excuses as to why Bivol vs 39 year old Beterbiev is the best time to make the fight and making it 6 years ago was bad.
Obviously the Saudis money is what's getting this fight done....Before it was just a good fight. Now they are gonna get overpaid. And Bob doesn't have to foot the bill. He's all in.

Exactly
it was the easiest path for Beterbiev. He always wanted to unify and then either retire or try and get a gold medal by fighting again in the Olympics if it was possible.
Yeah I remember Beterbiev going to Top Rank where they had 2 of the other beltholders. Bivol had an oppurtunity to go there also, but chose DAZN. Beterbiev is the only one who's gone out to unify.

Fantastic fight and now my favourite undisputed fight in 2024 following Ngannou's knockdown and victory over Fury (yes big Francis definitely got robbed).
