I didn`t like what I saw, he was too agressive and too reckless about defense..Beterbiev could be old and slow, but man if Beterbiev lands the shots Zinad landed, lights out.
I like Bivol as a boxer, but he must fight Beterbiev the way he usually fights. Defense first and who gives a f.uck if casuals are bored. You are in the ring, not casuals.
I hope Bivol is smart enough. Beterbiev will be the most dangerous fighter he ever fought.
I see you're slowly merging in the fast logic lane ... Good for you .... And for your previous talk about not losing his legs, well, It's gonna happen... No shame in that, it happened to all 20 of them... Bivol will fold and submit at some point... Like they all do ... :cool:
I just want to see that fight. I hope Beterbiev heels and comes back.
It doesn`t really matter if he knocks Bivol out, I will survive. I just want them to fight.
I highly doubt that the Beterbiev fight will even happen. He is gonna pull out again with an injury. Even if Bivol wins, they will say Beterbievs body was shot to bits

Can safely assume Bivol would not fight Beterbiev the same way, Beterbiev also coming off a knee issue doesn't bode too well against someone who typically is a mover like Bivol
Zinad was standing completely still and Bivol didn't want to have a stand off. Bivol is just purely a technical boxer, if a technical boxer with grid and a good knee puts on the pressure Bivol will get on that bycicle all night long and lose a decision.
Bivol does not like to go toe to toe, only wants to rack in points with that jump in and out pattern. He outweighed Zinad, has more experience but didn't dare to take on Zinad in a stand off early.

Bivol isn’t that difficult to hit. Some weirdo will probably bring up punch stats and irrelevant percentages but if you get into range he isn’t that difficult to hit- I remember saying the exact same thing about Haney, Andrade, Farmer etc.
Two patterns I noticed in Bivol's last two performances
His legs ARE slowing down and he doesn't glide in and out or turn on the fly like he used to do
If Artur can take Bivol`s legs away, he wins by a KO.
If I was Beterbiev, I would go to the body.
Bivol is a great counterpuncher. I don`t really dislike Beterbiev, I just favor Bivol as a boxer.
But it won`t be a shock if Beterbiev wins.

That could be a disaster if Beterbiev traps him against the ropes of cuts off the ring

If beterbiev comes in uninjured i think he still has a great chance for a KO over bivol. the thing is its not just his power, his stamina and pressure are great as well, he just keeps coming, I havent seen him tired in the late rounds. I can see bivol up on points doing well but getting stopped late.
I thought so too but i think that was on purpose, Bivol showed that bum no respect for his power, and bivol got hit quite a bit more than usual in the process but I think he really wanted to get a KO win so he took more risk. I dont think he will fight beterbiev that way, i would be very surprised if he did. You could say there is a small chance bivol's legs are gone but I doubt it, i think he was more aggressive on purpose to get the KO. If he went 12 with that bum then he would have gotten flack for it.
It is very clear Turki talked to Bivol and was like carry this M uslim brother of mine please.
bivol legit stood in front of Zinad with 0 bounce in his feet for like 1 minute of every round.
Ok but he should not fight Artur thst way.
