I also remember you were one of the guys that expected Canelo to beat Bivol easily.
Bivol also got no credit for beating canelo so...I guess Bivol will have to win a cruiserweight title to get a credit.
Here you go liar. The first post I found where I discuss the fight. Nowhere did I say it was going to be easy. I didn’t even think Canelo would win. I said a Draw or Win for Bivol.
It’s going to be tough, physically and stylistically. Bivol is not just big and tall, he has skills.
Plant and Callum Smith are taller than Bivol but they’re not at his level of skill and toughness. Saunders is about the same size as Bivol too and very skilled, but again, not as tough as Bivol. Bivol has a mean streak to him that BJS, Plant and Smith lacked.
Bivol is more like Daniel Jacobs, who lost to Canelo 115-113 on two scorecards. I think Bivol is going to be more difficult than that Jacobs fight.
We may see a Draw here. Or even Bivol winning.

Lmfao. You are a lying piece of sh/t.
I know damn well you’re lying and making sh/t up because I was one of the few saying Bivol is a fight Canelo could lose.
Making sh/t up and wrong as usual.
Post a comment from me saying Canelo will easily beat Bivol. Or Sftu.
Can’t use what a small group of casuals think, as the rule. Most people have him as the underdog, and so do oddsmakers, because they know he’s old and falling apart.
And it doesn’t matter what you care about. Beterbiev is 39 years old and injured. Those are two facts. He dropped out of the Callum Smith fight and postponed it due to an injury. He postponed his fight with Yarde because of an injury. He postponed his fight with Adam Deines due to an injury. He now postpones the Bivol fight because of an injury. The guy is old and falling apart.
This all happened within the last 3 years, coincidentally his late 30s, when athletes retire.
I’d pick a younger and fresher Beterbiev over Bivol. But he’s old and broken. He will give a good account of himself because he’s that good, but ultimately Bivol beats this version of Beterbiev.

I don`t care about these excuses.
Many casuals still expect Beterbiev to KO Bivol...so..

We have to look at it with common sense.
Artur Beterbiev is old and injury prone. As good as he’s shown he is, he is also 40 years old and coming off an injury. It may actually be time for Beterbiev to hang them up now, with 20 fights. That’s it. I think his body is telling him to.
It’s common sense.
The whole complaint about “oh so and so won’t get any credit because….” Can’t be applied here because it’s real common sense that Beterbiev is old and has battled injuries. It’s an actual valid issue, it’s not even an excuse. I mean he’s 40 years old. It’s a valid issue.

Bivol the next best thing suddenly ? Better question is: Does AB get full credit when he beats Bivol ? Or is AB then the guy that beat a Joe Smith Jr leftover ?
Yes. The last thing to go on a fighter is his punch. Beterbiev is not known for his defensive prowess or finesse. He is a puncher and always dangerous. He hasn’t been in any real wars where he went life and death and took a lot of punishment. He’s well preserved for his age.
I keep waiting for him to get old but he looked really good his last fight. yeah callum isnt that great but really 175 isnt a strong division either outside the top 2 guys, bivol has already ran through everyone he can except bivol.

No. But you can always ask ICEMAN JOHN SCULLY to clarify.
it is definitely my understanding that Artur will go right back to a fight with Dmitriy first.
that is the thing, he has to get old some day, last fight though he looked great
That is the thing with fighters, you never know when they will get old in the ring. But this is the time to make the fight, both undefeated and with good wins.
Full credit from me. Beterbiev looked like a beast in his last fight against a good foe.

Beterbiev is the reigning lineal, TBRB, WBC, IBF, and WBO light heavyweight champion of the world. He's 20-0-0-0 with 20 KOs including wins over reigning lineal and WBC champion Oleksandr Gvozdyk; former world titlists Tavoris Cloud, Gabriel Campillo, Joe Smith, and Callum Smith; and contenders Callum Johnson, Marcus Browne, and Anthony Yarde.
It's also the oldest active lineage in boxing. Beterbiev beat Gvozdyk, Gvozdyk beat Adonis Stevenson, Adonis Stevenson beat Chad Dawson, Chad Dawson beat Bernard Hopkins, Bernard Hopkins beat Jean Pascal, and Pascal beat Dawson in a match up of the top two fighters for the vacant lineage (as the previous #2 Glen Johnson lost to Cloud right before the first Pascal v Dawson fight).
And winning would make Bivol the undisputed lineal, TBRB, Ring, WBA (Super), WBC, IBF, WBO, IBO world champion.
And Beterbiev's meniscus injury isn't that serious. Karl-Anthony Towns and Joel Embiid both had the exact same injury this NBA season. Towns returned in only 4 weeks, Embiid returned in 8 weeks. Beterbiev should be back to 100% before the end of the year, even at his age.
So yes, he'll get the credit if he wins. ****** question.
yeah we need pull beterbiev out of random testing get him on growth hormone, should fix it right up, mcgreggor broke his fuking leg and half and it healed in like 6 months after removing himself from random testing
Does anyone know where Bivol is on the card this weekend? I've read Wilder Zhang is the main? But do they plan Bivol co-main? Or further down the card where it belongs..
