    Now I can see why Turki wants Opetaia against Bivol/Beterbiev winner

    Opetaia is a good southpaw, but he just gets hit too much and stuggled really bad twice fighting Breidis.

    He is too small for a heavyweight and if they want a big money fight for him, they must pay Bivol or Beterbiev very well to fight a bigger man.

    I think it makes sense if a Beterbiev beats Bivol. Bivol vs Opetaia I'm not very interested in.

      your selling briedis a bit short there although hes getting on in years hes still a very decent fighter and he wouldnt be an easy night for any cruiser out there

      but in saying that i definitely wouldnt mind seeing jai versus beterbiev or bivol

        Bivol will be the next 2x undisputed.

          I'd rather see a rivalry with Jai vs Ryan Rozicki (assuming he wins his upcoming belt fight) than see a 175 guy move up. I think that could be a trilogy & it'd be a fun ass fight if it just happened once.

          I don't got stats in front of me but I would assume the 175 to 200 division jump is one of the least successful in boxing its such a big ass jump. So idgaf about Artur or Dmitri moving up

            Maybe we should wait until he becomes 1x Undisputed.
