Bivol has good cardio but is too much of a runner and fights in one gear and has no plan B. Too basic to win Saturday. Once Bivol feels the power he will shut down and will give up rounds to try and minimize damage which will lead to a loss by UD.
I also think Bivol is basic but he's a very good basic, and I think he will be able to outmanoeuvre Beterbiev and win a competitive decision. He has underrated power, than needs to be respected, and good speed. His biggest weakness is to the body imo, the way he stands upright in a high guard, in range, so much. If he gets hurt there its all over.
Just taking things on their face - isn't this potentially the worst version of Beterbiev going into a fight? Maybe it ends up meaning nothing, but it seems to me he will enter the ring not in ideal situation. . Arthur experts, is that wrong
No hype will end Saturday night... Both are very good fighters... Both will move on to other challenges in the future after Saturday night fight...
True...But this fight will be their Legacy Fight if it delivers... Even when/if a new "best-thing-since-sliced-bread" comes up (and it probably will happen in the mid-far term), nothing will beat that fight for the current LHW Division Era and both these guys are HOF worthy ...
It is a great fight. OP doesn`t even like big fights. That is why he says somebody`s hype will end. And OP will be the first one finding 100 excuses for beterbiev˙s loss.
Bivol will get KOd and I will be gloating on Saturday saying I told you so
They keep hyping his " pendulum swing" in and out. If you have a rythm you can be timed. Better will close the distance anyways. Beter by KO.
All of bivols top fights go the distance. Beter can and will take one to land one. He will break down and wear down bivol.

if anything Bet gets frustrated and follows Biv around the ring like a mummy
Biv is too much ring iq and ability for survival mode
He can run for a few rounds but not twelve and win the fight.

You gonna get in a bet, since you're so sure? Did you clean up on AJ v Dubois?
