At least I streamed it for free because I work for the cable company unlike you dip mofoing hater. Ate steak , watched a bull caki ass card, and ended up getting a lame ass fight. Hate me all you want I will send you watermelon and bananas and fried chicken Private Snowball
Let me guess. The wrong guy lost in your opinion LOL.
Yea the wrong guy lost and that’s just the way it is……….things will never be the same………that’s just the way it is………..oh yea
Hands down, Bivol is just the better fighter. The only person who can defeat him is himself and father time. If one can last twenty-four rounds against Artur Beterbiev; Then chances are they have won the fight and is the better fighter.
Bivol should have defeated him the first time the two fought but we all know why he didn't. It was largely due to politics and Artur's faith. Just watch Turki's reaction to the scorecards.
He appeared very disappointed and sad that Artur lost. So obviously, he had a horse in the race. Then he turned to Beterbiev while holding up three fingers to his face for a trilogy.Bivol won 7 the first time and 8 the second time
he’d win 9 the third time
I’m not sure what Artur could do differently in the rematch
he started earlier this time and had a fully recovered knee which allowed him to regularly go to the body
But it wasn’t enough
and Bivol chin stood up to some of Artur’s signature shot CLEAN overhands
Bivol barely clinched this time around. Frequent clinching in the trilogy and it’s Bivol 10-2 Artur
Now that is a great fight. Just boxing within the rules. No excessive holding or running. Both tough guys though Beterbiev clearly with heavier hands. Ton of heart in Bivol.
Bivol just seems like a good dude. I thought he got jobbed in the first fight which was a disciplined boxing display.
This time he HAD to be more aggressive and throw more volume, because of the BS first fight decision, which in theory should have given Bertebiev more openings and opportunity to counter but he got it done again.
I was glad the right man won, and both fights were excellent which credit goes to Bertebiev for as well.
Great fight!
It looked bad for Bivol between rounds 3 to 6. Artur seemed to run out of gas a bit after that but still hung tight to make it a very close fight.
Bivol lost the last round again. He's lucky it didn't cost him this time!
I thought once Bivol took over by the mid rounds; He never looked back. By that time the fight was a wrap. As Beterbiev had trouble landing anything cleanly or meaningful on him due to Dmitry's superior ring generalship. Which included his hand speed and foot movement.

Dmitry snatched this victory out of the jaws of defeat. He simply wanted it more and outperformed Artur.
I thought Beterbiev performed a lot better and earlier in this fight than I had previously anticipated. I had winning the early rounds as Bivol appeared broken and looked as if he was ready to throw in the towel.
However, by the mid rounds he completely took over the fight. He started to mount his own attack by implementing a lot of movement and clean combination punches. He was simply beating Beterbiev to the punch.
Artur appeared both lost and perplexed. As he had troubled cutting off the ring. From round six on; I gave Bivol every round for the exception of the twelfth where it appeared that Beterbiev buzzed him.
In any case, good effort by both men in another hotly contested and crowd-pleasing fight.
I thought it was almost same as first fight. Bivol not only landing more but also the cleaner punches. I thini he had a funny thought in his head about losing by ko in the last round that he's winning in and he fought scared as a result.
Funny how both didn't sound too enthusiastic about a 3rd fight with Beterbiev even saying he didn't want the second fight. Strange.
hed be smart to skip the 3rd fight career wise, 36 rounds with beterbiev has to shorten your career, look at fury's trilogy with wilder, i think that took something out of fury.
bivol probably thinking he really doesnt want another 12 round battering even if he wins its very painful
That was pretty clear. Bivol clearly won 1,2, 7, 8,9, 11, and 3/10 were close. Beterbiev clearly won 4,5,6, 12. There's no way Beterbiev wins this. He could have gotten a draw, but anyone who thinks Beterbiev won this fight is going to be in the clear minority. He outlanded Beterbiev by almost 40% FFS, despite throwing 140 fewer punches, and outlanded him in 8 rounds. How DOESN'T he win the fight?many of the Artur guys incorrectly value aggression over clean punching
and they
think coming forward automatically equals effective aggression
broadcasts need to educate viewers that clean punching is king. Hbo used to review these rules before every major bout
the better clean puncher is the effective aggression, smarter ring generalship, and stronger defense

Beterbiev commanded the ring, pursued / chased Bivol every round, landed effectively, and sliced him open. Bivol ran, stopped briefly to lash out now and then, and ran again. An even more obvious victory for Artur than the first fight.
I could smell this result coming though. Between round highlights showed the few punches landed by Bivol from several angles so the narrative was he was dominating Artur. Announcers so biased I turned off the sound after the first round.
Seriously: exactly what did Bivol do to earn the win over the champ?
Jesus. Bivol running and running and then flurrying the last 30 seconds of rounds is incredible. Bivol was smart to wait until Biev was 40. Biev is aging and a few years ago he crumples Bivol.
Zero idea how anyone can watch Bivol run and run against Biev and scream for joy. Biev rocked him several times.
Just amazing.
