Comments Thread For: Team Beterbiev: Bivol Had Canelo On the Ropes and Wouldn't Pull Trigger; With Artur That's a Whole Different Program

[Zaroku]

Exactly
Bivol was worried what Canelo was throwing back
Can hardly wait to see his expression when Beterbiev hits him
Should be priceless

You truly a boxing fan

Bivol is a good boxer but not some phenom with all timer skill. Jesus. Canelo is a shrimp. Kov was napping and a shell of himself.

I just want all the people saying it is a 50/50 fight to finally admit Artur is an all timer when he stops Bivol. Because you all have built Bivol into an all timer with his defeat of little Saul.

So if Bivol beats Beterbiev you have to admit Bivol is a phenom with all timer skills right?

Where have I heard this 20 times before
they all say the same thing
And then it’s excuse after excuse
Remember one thing , like you keep saying , Beterbiev is not Canelo who is flat footed and really slow But still cornered Bivol and got many shots on him
So keep telling yourself he’s this defensive wizard but in reality he ain’t and it’s been proven more than once

What are you talking about? After Round 2, Canelo hardly landed anything and was mostly cowering against the ropes. Stop listening to clown John Scully.

That sh.it is crazy. 90% of people give Bivol almost no chance, lol. I remember the same before Fury - Wilder rematch. Almost nobody gave Fury any chance to win.

Cowards, mate, pull your pants up and turn your hat the other way, cowards sheeese I hate seeing fans that have done nothing call world champion fighters cowards, it’s cringe.

Bum ass cowards that avoid challenges.

6 F.cking years and people are barely realizing “oh they should fight each other”

It was a momentum knockdown anyway, Biev was off balance and got hit with a shot that basically pushed him over, he wasn't hurt.

I have never seen Biev hurt. Yearde hit him with a few haymakers and he kept coming forward. Dude's chin is legendary.

I saw another knockdown and I think he was stunned with that punch, Jones?

If that hypothetical fight happened, and Beterbiev “pulled the trigger” on canelo, he would get countered to oblivion. And let’s not forget he’s been down before. Bivol’s restraint and distance is what actually got him the victory vs canelo.

Maybe you should speak for yourself. I am Bivol fan since he picked the world title.

No my good Sir. You know I am not talking about you since we both picked Bivol to win against the midget.

But you also know who they are!

Artur and Bivol 2 of my fav boxers.

I will for sure. because to beat Biev, Bivol is going to HAVE to show all timer skill and he is going to have to show he can throw hard enough to deter Biev. Biev has fought Smith, Yearde, Smith, and other big punchers. He was hit with bombs, and not one of them had the power to stop him from being right back in their face, hurting them with shots each round. Bivol does not hit like those guys. Distance fighting doesn't work against a guy who hurts you with every punch. So Bivol is going to have to go 12 rounds getting hit by almost nothing. Meaning running.

Those comparing this fight to Fury-Wilder truly are silly. Biev is not a one punch terrible ass boxer who plods around telegraphing his shots. He is a pressure fighter who is constantly touching, doing damage with each shot, and once he hurts a guy, he stops them. Bivol is a very good boxer who doesn't have big power. Lesser guys have hurt him. He isn't Floyd.

That said, if Bivol puts on a masterful performance and beats Biev, I will give him full credit. I love both guys, would love to see that type of shocker, that is what makes the sport great. But I see a pretty pedestrian KO for Biev.

Yes. Bivol understood Canelo was not hurt at all. Canelo actually tried to force him "cmon man, try more". But Bivol had second thoughts because Canelo was fine, waiting to counter him back.

Bivol is not just a great boxer, he is also a smart boxer.
