    Only because of how much they get paid.

      Everyone has a million and one excuses as to why Beterbiev/Bivol shouldn't happen,

      Mean old Arum, the Ukraine/Russian war, different networks, blah blah blah.

      Blame Arum. blame Arum blame Arum, is all I hear. Guess what, Beterbiev is the boss not Arum. Beterbiev should've grown a pair of balls and demanded the fight OR Beterbiev should've left Arum like many other fighters have done. There is no damn excuse as to why this fight shouldn't have happened by now. Cowardly moves by both Beterbiev and Bivol.

      Either Bivol and Beterbiev have vaginas where their balls should be or they're little puppets controlled by their promotors getting told who to fight and where to fight with no say so whatsoever.


      Actually women boxers have bigger balls than these two, I've never seen a woman boxer come up with as many excuses as these clowns. They (Bivol and Beterbiev) don't have vaginas, they're neutered, they're the neutered dog you bring home after getting their balls snipped hiding in the corner.

          why is Beterbiev fighting Callum Smith for less money?


          Bivol fighting Canelo and Ramirez was for more money. Why is Beterbiev fighting these guys for less money than unifying with Bivol?

            Because Bivol Is probably scared of Beterbiev and won’t fight him. Which leaves Beterbiev fighting the tier below. Buatsi would be a hard fight for Bivol

              Why isn't Beterbiev even making Bivol offers? Once again, he's making LESS MONEY fighting the likes of Yarde, Joe Smith and Callum Smith.


              Bivol is making MORE money fighting Ramirez and Canelo.

                He was trying to make the Canelo rematch. Canelo only offered him the same $5 million he earned for the first fight, essentially pricing himself out. He also wouldn't put his titles at 168 on the line if Bivol agreed to come down. Beterbiev fight is not his fault. Hopefully he is active in 2024 with competitive fights.

                  In 2023 Bivol killed the momentum he had from 2022

                    This is dumb. Not only was Bivol never offered a Beterbiev fight, Arum made it clear that it wasn’t a fight he was interested in making.

                      There never were any negotiations.
