    far far more than just being a robot.....his footwork and judge of distance is incredible and the whole fight it was him who initiated what tempo that fight was fought at......I didn’t even see him really come out of 1st gear to be truthful

Great stamina and workrate, seemingly impossible to hurt. Not a huge puncher but that kind of backs up the point that he isn't really the biggest guy at 175 anyway.

      A couple levels above Plant pfp I'd say.
      He’s not to robotic at all. At least not in his style. Mindset perhaps.

      He moves in and out beautifully. Has lovely fast fluid punches

        I followed up in my initial comment as far as in what sense he is robotic, in my view - "Great professional, always in shape, takes his job seriously. Great stamina and workrate, seemingly impossible to hurt."

          People seem to have a different view of what a boxing robot is - to me that is a high compliment. Bivol is like a boxing machine.

          He is an extremely talented fighter with no real holes. Very hard guy to beat.

            Come on, folks. Canelo tried to drain Bivol and still lost 12 out of 12 rounds based on compubox stats. Sweet Cheeks has a bit of swag. That's about it. Bivol stops this dude.

                I think when you said robot we all assumed the big stiff Euro robot archetype were all accustomed to seeing in the ring. Funny thing is now that some of the most dynamic fighters today are European like Usyk, Loma, and Bivol (Russian I know).

                    I think he’s possibly smaller than Plant too tbh.

                    Bivol doesn’t drain himself at all to make 175 IMO. That’s why his output is so good.

                      I agree, he’s very fluid, very well rounded fighter.
