Comments Thread For: Dmitry Bivol Shakes Head at WBC Not Sanctioning Fights With Russian Boxers

[zapallo]

They had/have no problem sanctioning us fights with us fighters while they were/are at war in Vietnam, Afghanistan, Irak and pretty sure plenty of others

I've been watching boxing my entire life, have over 1000 vhs tapes and 200 dvd's with nothing on it but boxing from one end to another that I started collecting as a teenager the same way kids collect comic books or video games, seen every era and seen fighters most ppl will never be able to see or don't even know about, and I have to say that Bivol is one of baddest mofos I ever saw live or on film. It truly disgusts me that he's not being allowed to box for certain belts. The politics have no place in our sport. He's a good man trying to feed his family. He doesn't give a sh.t about the war in Russia or about *****, he's just a boxer and a good person. Same thing for Beterbiev. Another bad mf

I respect Beterbiev as a great dedicated athlete and boxer.

Not that he needs my respect but I'd respect him even more if he dumps that WBC belt in the trash can and fights Bivol

Bivol shaking his head about not potentially fighting Beterbiev? LOL they should've fought years ago! Now, NOW he wants to shake his head? What a loser.

Imagine calling the guy who wants to unify a loser.

And strangely enough they were both with DAZN in late 18 and it's Beterbiev who left DAZN when there was a perfect opportunity to unify(fought within a month of each other)...

Does he really want to unify? They've been belt holders at the same division for years. Don't give me this bullsh.it that the fight could never have gotten made. Crying about it now is some bullsh.it excuse for him to blame someone else about the fight not getting made. Any fight can get made, look at Ryan/Tank, that one got made, both have different promotors and different networks. Fu.ck Bivol crying ass.

Taking a FAKE stand on a war they know nothing about, but letting Jermall Charlo keep their belt under his bed for two years. UNREAL.

is bull****, im not a fan of russian athletes being punished for something that wasnt there decision... if they ban russians they should have banned american and uk fighters for invading iraq

He left to go to where the WBC, WBO and IBF belts were. I'd say it worked out for him.

Prior to the Canelo fight, DAZN had Bivol fighting second on the card against guys nobody had ever heard of.

Bivol works with the wrong promoter.
That's the only "problem" that corrupt Scumofaman has.
Beterbiev also Russian and has no problem being a champ of that corrupt org. But he has a different promoter, of course.

He lives in Canada, of course I have been against the WBC for decades, and I think stopping someone for making a living just because an A$$ invaded another country, it's not fair. I'm just saying

Like Canelo and Andrade right?

Will Canelo duck Andrade the third time, at 168?
