Comments Thread For: Bivol's Manager Does Not Expect The WBC To Be an Obstacle in Making Beterbiev Fight

Expect the unexpected..

As much as I love Beterbiev, I think Bivol is a bad style match up for him. If he lands things could get interesting but the problem is I think those shots would be too few and far between to break Bivol down like we’ve seen everyone else.

Also have to take into account that Beterbiev is gonna be 39 in about 2 weeks and he’s fairly inactive. Father Time could strike any day if it hasn’t already.

I think Bivol by decision is the most likely outcome at this point but honestly wouldn’t be shocked of any outcome at this points given all the variables

Yup. Arums on record saying he won’t make a Bivol/Beterbiev fight. Then again, Arum is a notorious liar.

Suleiman needs to make this fight happen or else it will make the WBC look like a bunch of fools in people's eyes

Man, almost word for word what I have been thinking. I am really curious how Beterbiev looks against Smith. His activity, his slickness in the ring, his defense. I think we all know his power is still awesome and can hurt anyone in this division, but his reflex, endurance and movement are way more important against Bivol. Bivol will not open up to allow that power to dictate this fight unless Beterbiev makes him, and that only happens if Bivol feels his accuracy is not winning the fight. If we see Beterbiev really goes some rounds, have great offensive output, and his movement is good, the fight with Bivol has the potential to be an all time great. If Beterbiev looks slow and only really beats Smith because of his power, I will start to worry for him.. Bivol will not box dumb, so Beterbiev needs to prove he can fight smart.

Bivol will fold, like all the others and as Elite he might be... That's called Darwinism ....

Meanwhile we witness the worst Soap ever... JUST SIGN THE DAMN THING !!!! ...

Boring? Did you see his fight with Arthur ? Bivol is an absolute sniper in that ring and I’m calling it right now, he beats beterbiev.

The fight with Lyndon Arthur was very boring, to be fair. Even the DAZN announcers were saying it.

The WBC along with the other three alphabet soups organizations are as corrupt as they come, fools they're not.

I hope Beterbiev batters Bivol.

Bivol is just boring. He does just enough to win rounds, about time he got a good beat down. Artur will give that to him.

In the view of the people, even though the IBF, WBC, WBA and WBO are corrupt as ****
