Comments Thread For: Dmitry Bivol Approached With Jai Opetaia Fight, Only Focused On Chance At Undisputed At 175 Pounds

upon watching more opetaia fights. i actually don't think he uses his size. he uses speed like Usyk. he doesn't lean on you and clinch. he boxes and snipes from a distance. which is why Bivol has a good shot. cus he's faster than opetaia with an iron clad defense.

remember Usyk had more trouble with smaller quick guys like Briedis and Shawn Porter.

Bivol is more skilled, no doubt. But is would be a very tough fight.

You make a good case but I still think size and strength will win the day.

Opetaia has legit punching power. he is definitely the favorite.


Briedis is a worse match up for Bivol. he actually brawls and is very quick to close the distance.

I want Bivol to take all the belts at 175 first.
