Comments Thread For: Manager Hoping to Find Replacement Opponent for Dmitry Bivol on June 1

Yarde should get the call. Common opponent. Dunno if Bivol hits hard enough to keep Yarde at bay. He certainly ain't no Beterbiev

Beterbiev is done. Too old, too many injuries. If he ever fights Bivol, it won`t even be competitive.

Joshua

Benavidez

betterbiev always injured. hope it Benevides. I'll be betting Bivol

I think, besides Bivol vs Beterbiev, a Bivol vs Benavidez matchup would be fascinating.

I don't think much of the supposed good match between Benavidez and Gvozydyk.

Morrell Jr and benavidez are going up. Me thinks Morrell Jr should get the call, bivol is wba?

Bivol is the WBA Champ and Butasi is his mando. If I were in Butasi's shoes, I'd jump at the chance of life changing Saudi money and a shot at the belt.

Buatsi didn't jump at the Bivol fight when he was with Matchroom.

I know Warren and Yarde are supposedly not on good terms at the moment, but Warren said that Yarde is still under contract. If so, he should try and get Yarde to be the replacement. Then, the 5 vs. 5 becomes 6 vs. 6.

No way the Benavidez vs Gvozdyk fight gets cancelled for Bivol vs Benavidez. It's a guaranteed loss for David and it will effectively torch the last remaining ember of hope he has at facing Canelo. And I think he knows it.

Wouldn't say guaranteed loss but a very hard fight for anyone.

And a loss to Bivol shouldn't stop Benevides Canelo from being made.

They could bill it as "Battle of Bivol's babies.

I agree that Yarde should get the call. Yarde has already proven that he can be out-boxed and that his stamina isn't great. Bivol has enough power to keep Yarde honest, and enough skill to keep Yarde guessing. I think Bivol would be able to survive Yarde's offensive bursts.

That's good idea too man, I dig it.
