Comments Thread For: Artur Beterbiev Drops Callum Smith Twice, Stops Him in Seventh

[Reverb]

Keith Idec still dropping his trademark piece..clicks over quality. Really pumps out utter ****. Kid would never make it in boxing writing. He'll never write a book, not a professional standard one. That's for sure.

Man some people really are trying hard to come out with every excuses they can to **** on Beterbiev LMAO.

Hey don't get me wrong -- I'll say it upfront I'm rooting for Beterbiev (I'm biased though I'm from Montreal) and Bivol is a very hard fight.

I hate when I see people saying ''it's gonna be easy for ''X'' or ''Y'''' If anything that just show me how little to none they know about fighting. That's not an easy fight for both of them.

Bivol definitely have the speed and I think he's an overall better boxer than Beterbiev (just my opinion). But man can Beterbiev crack mfers..... and he showed tonight that he's not only a one trick pony but also has great defense and a really good jab.

Since I'm biased I'll go for Beterbiev 55% - 45% but that fight will be very interesting. Arthur is looking like a machine out there... I just can't see Bivol getting him outta here so he will need to win a decision. In order to do that, he will need to do that which seems very difficult IMO.

So many people posting here are all in their feelings.... put your feelings aside for a second and use logical thinking... this ain't no easy fight for both of them. This is a legacy fight. Matter of fact -- boxing need that fight.

It's a tough fight and either man can win but I have learned that it's usually a safe bet to bet on skills, Bivol is orders of magnitude more skilled than Smith or Yarde, and especially with Bertebiev age I have to shade it to bivol.

Bivol is all wrong for Beterbiev would be a easy UD.

I get the feeling Buddy is going to throw in the towel at some point. He is very protective of his fighters.

Ref Tony Weeks would have stopped this fight from the 2nd round
Heh

Mystic Ed strikes again.

Looking forward to undesputed now, can Bivol tame that preasure?

Probably, but will be interesting for sure.

Mofos here riding Arthur hard now lmfao ,everybody on the beterviev bandwagon now.

[Toprope]

I think Beterbiev comes through hell early in this one, getting hurt and maybe even dropped, to bludgeon Smith into submission late. Think it goes down as a really good action fight, but takes something out of Beterbiev and leaves him a shell of himself going forward.

Canelo beat the straight dog shiznit out of Smith...and you thought...jeezie

[james240]

Probably, but will be interesting for sure.

Honestly? think it will be a stinkfest styles makes fights.

Bivol ring IQ is vastly superior will keep range and just pot Beterbiev face all night wont hurt him or anything tho.

Benavidez vs Beterbiev now there is a fight i would eagerly anticipate.
