Bivol beats Beterbiev. here is why

[Spray_resistant]

I'm picking Beterbiev by stoppage, even blocked or glancing shots seems to bust up and damage opponents. Bivol would have to be perfect for 12 rds, keep a high pace behind the jab, and not touch the ropes to win a decision. I don't think he can do it.

Why not? What was the last two Saudi show ring sizes???

But yea I agree the more Bivol is on the ropes vs a guy like Beterbiev the wider Beterbiev's path to victory gets. So a smaller ring is a plus for Beterbiev.

because ring size is neg. and beterbiev team will not agree. the fight will not be fought in a massive 22 ft ring like lara vs angulo, totally favors a pure boxer

at this point in lara's career he landed 50 percent of his power shots similar to fmw jr and dependent on his movement while you have a pressure fighter angulo who shoe shines like beterbiev without the iq and power but it's still a similar classic match up.

i said this about andrade vs benavidez. look at the ring, how small it is. this small ring favorites a pressure fighter which benavidez is the A side. andrade was coming over to PBC with zero leverage. no where for andrade to move, literally had to exchange with benavidez from the opening bell.

beterbiev PROMOTION is not going to agree to a ring Bivol and move round in circles bouncing in and it. why would they do that with 3 belts?

Than I guess the fight won`t happen. Unless if Saudis pay Bivol insane money which they won`t.

Bivol is not completely ******, he will not fight Beterbiev in a baby ring.

I have bivol winning by UD

[MulaKO]

Just be here to justify King Artur’s win
Don’t be like fughnut Headshots who proclaims chit but can’t back it up
Lies on top of lies is Headshots discussions
He proclaimed boxing is dead but here’s he is
Maybe it’s silent night at mma headquarters

[satiev1]

Wrong

[satiev1]

if they fight in saudi, advantage beterbiev because of his religion. That would be a massive fight in ****** history.

So back head shots all night

lmao. Head shots got his excuses ready just in case.

agree that smaller ring benefits beterbiev


beterbiev has good defense when he wants to. Bivol doesnt have much power, beterbiev can take some degree of risk to land his own, he isnt a wild sloppy guy but he knows he has to take some risks to apply his pressure, hes got a good jab too and sets up his shots. I pick him as the slight favorite. Bivol was rocked by Joe smith, we seen him hurt before its not like he is iron chinned. He can win but he has to fight, not necessarily perfect, but make very few mistakes.

Beterbiev all his shots are hard, so there is no one shot for guys to look out to avoid.

Bivol has serious power too (canelo said that powerwise Bivol same as GGG) it is just Beterbievs power is freaking scary

GGG is a middleweight, I believe Bivol hits harder than GGG.

[JuicedJuggernaut]

Bivol wins this because he's younger. Beterbiev probably wins if they're both 32. But this is the fight that is going to out-stamina Beterbiev and that's why he's going to avoid it.
