    Good fight, but I don't think it's anywhere as good as Tank vs. Shakur! Let me clarify, I mean "as good at the box office!" $$$

      oh no - Beter-Biv is at best average at the box office - but it's a true fan's fight although imo getting a bit past its sell by date due to Artur's age - still want to see it but Artur is taking more damage in his fights - Yarde and now likely Smith - Bivol took very little damage against Canelo and Zurdo

        I predict Beter-Biv will be sealed when Beter career is near over.

        it’ll be Beter ca$hing out

          Yeah, it’s a great fight and needs to happen now. Beterbiev is only going to decline from here whereas Bivol is likely to get better. It’ll be a better fight if it happens sooner.

          I think Tank Shakur could turn out to be as good a fight as Crawford Spence. Those two are top of my list at the moment followed closely by Canelo Benevidez - another one that needs to happen sooner rather than later. It’s crap when fighters age out before their career defining fights, it deprives the fans.

            you don't want to see Paul get smashed to bits by a super small guy?

              Shakur is the closest thing to a prime PBF. I think he lacks a few physical attributes(fast twitch reflexes, speed, overall athleticism) that PBF had, but fundamentally-wise, he’s the second coming…

              Wow, ever heard the phrase 'damning with faint praise'? Basically, you say he's like Floyd but without any of the things that make Floyd exceptional. I could say of Daniel Dubois that he really reminds me of Joe Frazier, only, without his left hook, or his stamina, or his heart.
