Brave dude that believe in his skills.

Is that what you got from what he’s saying ?
I got the opposite , kind of like he’s questioning his own skills and let me tell you , once a man begins to question if his skills will pay the bills , that man is in trouble
Sounds like a defeated fighter already

He wants the fight. I don't share your sentiment.

Never said he doesn’t want the fight
But it sure sounds like he’s questioning his capabilities

It can be one of two things. He is doubting he can over come or he respects his opponent border lining fear. It depends how he uses that, either he lifts ups his game because what is in front of him or he freezes when he gets into the ring.

I don't care what you all think but the real thing is Bivol looked really bad in his last fight against a "punching bag". He could not knocked out a nobody but instead was caught several times. Do you suppose how he will be punished against Beterbiev or Benavidez? Against Canelo he dominated because Canelo is too small and doesn't belongs to 175. To me Bivol is an average boxer. Not too impressed resume...

Or he crumbles like a cookie to make it 21 ko’s

Hoping for one of the more classier pre-fight hypes for this. Besides any accusations of ducking (which would seem petty now if the fight is happening), is there really anything negative either of them can say about each other? The Saudis had better pay them well, because "personalities" won't set this one alight - and I'm perfectly happy with that.

Boxing is the theater of the unknown. I favor Beterbiev in this fight and want to see if Bivol has a second gear. I hope the ring is not as small as Beterbiev's last fight.
