I don’t think Bivol will be able to keep Beterbiev off.

    Plus, Bivol won't need that much power anyway because Arthur's chin is a little bit shaky.

    Bivol on the other hand is exceptionally smart and very, fundamentally sound but gets ****y sometimes.

    It's a great 50-50 fight or 55-45 in Bivol's favor.
    keep hearing this and still don't see it, yes he got dropped but it wasn't like he was hurt or anything. smith, callum, has some decent pop and landed a few nice uppercuts and yet, didn't do shlt. same thing in the gvozdyk fight, beterbiev took all of his best shots pretty well.

        There will be no destruction in Bivol -Beterbiev fight. Beterbiev is a slow starter. His aggressiveness is controlled, planed, He is actually a careful fighter, just like Bivol.

        It will be more a chess match. Beterbiev will understand that if he just jumps on Bivol he will get countered.

          Power is easy to cancel out if a guy is a solid boxer.
          Punchers get frustrated and force things to happen.
          Boxers pounce when that moment happens.

          I say Biv boxing > Beter's power.

            Nah he lost by decision cus he got dropped 3 times.

            Fouled his way out as he was getting KOed. Watch the fight

              If you are average boxer, the forcer will pick you apart.

              But I see Bivol as a better boxer.

                You said he got stopped by Pascal though, which is false. It went to the scorecards and he lost by one point. You misrepresented the fight, Browne is not trash.

                  I think it will come down to ring size. Beterbiev will want a smaller ring, Bivol will want a larger ring to move around more. If Bivol has room to move he can stay behind his jab and avoid the inside exchanges.

                    Arthur got dropped hard by that British fighter Johnson and was on wobbly legs.

                    Plus, Smith caught Beterbiev rushing in with a check, left hook. Beterbiev can't afford to make those kinds of mistakes against a guy like Bivol.

                      He looked as good as he can tonight, good defense, showed patience in breaking Callum down.

                      Bivol has speed and stamina, that is his key to outland round by round and win a UD. I pick beterbiev by ko but it's still 40% chance for bivol for me.

                      Both have good sense of distance, will be interesting to see if bivols faster feet keeps him away. He will have to move all night like usyk vs AJ and betterbiev is more skilled than AJ
