    25 lbs. We aren't talking 4-8 lbs. Beterbiev doesn't have a frame like Gilberto Ramirez. Bigger head but shorter than Bivol and I think Bivol is more thicker than him.

        5'5'' Shawn Porter beat Usyk in the amateurs. Usky kept growing but Beterbiev and Porter, esp, didn't unless you are telling me Porter with football muscle who fought at 68 is big enough too. Thanks.

          Artur already stated that CW after becoming undisputed was in the books if he was still down for Boxing ...

              The jump in weight is among the widest in the sport %-wise. I find Bivol to be among the most boring guys in boxing, but I think like many of these divisions where undisputed has been doable you gotta do it if you are in that situation. So I definitely wanna see Beterbiev vs Bivol for the 1 vs 2/undisputed angle the boxers get to experience.

              After that I wouldn't be mad about him going up if he can make the weight. But him already being older makes me doubt a 25lb weight gain is in the cards anytime before his retirement.

              For me rn give me Jai vs Briedis or Ryan Rozicki. The rematch should be as good as the first fight & Ryan is never in a boring fight.

                Nah, 25 lbs is too much.

                It is not like a jump from 160 to 168.
