    Yeah. I agree and have said the same thing. It will be early in 2024 before Bivol will be available. Assuming Beterbiev wins this, I actually hope he gets one more fight in this year, like in November. He looks better the more active he is. It can be a lighter touch just to stay sharp, but I think he needs it. Bivol is a serious threat. Beterbiev needs fresh legs under him, but he has shown ring rust at times. That is worrying against an intelligent warrior like Bivol.
    Well said and 100% correct.

      I’m still of the mindset that Bivol hands Artur his first loss. By decision, of course, because Bivol ain’t knocking Beterbiev out. On the other hand, Beterbiev is an underrated technician in his own right, and you can certainly make the argument that Artur has a shot of getting past Bivol’s excellent guard. But man, Bivol is just so darn good.
