Although Crawford vs. Spence was a GREAT fight on paper, it'll always be marred by the fact that Spence wasn't the same following the car crash and years of hard partying unlike clean-living Crawford. Had that fight happened a few years ago, it would've been a much closer fight and NOT a one-sided beatdown.
Similarly, Usyk vs Fury was shaping up to be a genuine 50-50 fight until Fury getting dropped and arguably BEATEN by Ngannou on his pro debut took the wind out of it's sails! Fury ISN'T a disciplined fighter outside of the ring like Usyk either.
Therefore, all things considered, Bivol vs. Beterbiev is the BEST undisputed fight in recent history as both guys are entering the fight without showing any major degradation in the ring or suffering life changing events. Although Beterbiev is 7 years older and recently got injured, he's still an absolute KILLER having recently stopped Callum Smith for the first time plus Bivol is now considered a genuine threat following his victories over 'undefeated' Mexicans Canelo & Zurdo.
