    It’s quite simple , Mr waste of skin needs to troll as usual
    Plus he doesn’t get to say much at home cause he ain’t wearing the pants at home either
    When Beterbiev beats Bivol , remember this , it’ll be all about back to the head punches and how the judges were paid off
    Mark my words

      Other than being very fundamentally sound, the man is also clearly physically tough and not that easy to catch clean. But when he gets caught, it seems like he can really minimize the damage or cover up fairly quickly.

      He doesn’t have to be elusive like a Pernell Whitaker or Roy Jones Jr, because he instead…blocks punches very well.

      Bivol vs Beterbiev will be interesting because idk how Artur will get around that guard. At the same time, Artur is a serial rabbit puncher so if anyone can do it it’s him.

        Bivol beat Alvarez wide but the rounds were competitive

        Alvarez has excellent defense and is hard to hit

        what Bivol lacks is head movement, clinching, and inside fighting

        Beats these and Bivol is ATG:

        Beterbiev
        Benavidez
        Opetaia the cruiserweight

          Bivol isn’t a clincher

          will see whether this helps or hurts when it comes to Artur’s rabbit punching

            Bivol will beat Beter more clearly than he did Alvarez

            Alvarez is harder to hit with explosive hands that often kept Bivol’s offense at home

            Beter isn’t as fast nor defensively savvy

              Casuals are funny. Bivol is underdog against anybody, but when he wins, they bring up excuses.

              Canelo was too small, Ramirez was too big, Beterbiev will be too old...

              Bivol is Mayweather level now. Whatever he does, it will never be good enough.

              But the same people will hype Crawford for beating washed up Spence.

                Canelo was P4p #1

                4 division champ

                first ballot hall of fame


                nobody else holds such a win in boxing. Period

                  Bivol is very good at fundamental boxing and I think he has a very good feel for distance and timing.

                    Its funny how highly Bivol is rated considering he has never looked spectacular in his whole career and often looked mediocre like the Richards fight, even his last fight he threw the kitchen sink at a bum and couldn't stop him. I think the Canelo win has clouded everyones brain.

                    Usually to be rated so highly fighters need to be far more impressive in the ring than just a good ABC boxer.

                      Canelo is near the end and doesn't belong at 175, a guy from a division above is not the same as beating him at his best weight, you can beat a name without beating the best version of that name, I don't count trophys in boxing at all, I look at the fighters who they beat and all things such as weights and the form they are going in, youre a cheerleader Im not.

                      And I have nothing bad to say about Bivol at all he is quality guy, pound for pound Canelo is a overall better fighter, Bivol has a lot to do to equal Canelo, not a lot of difference than Ugas beating Manny everybody knows Manny is the better fighter.
