This is the best fight that can be made.... and I wish it had happened a year to a year and a half ago. No doubt in my mind this is still a great fight, but it just feels as though we should be on the rematch.
I will stick to my pick of Beterbiev. But if it had happened like 18 months ago, the pick would have been one I was 100% sure about. Now? Bivol probably should be the betting favorite: More active, younger, and a style that could negate Beterbiev obvious power advantage. I still think Artur just methodically wears down Bivol. I bet Beterbiev throws every punch with power and purpose. Underrated skills that, while I know Bivol will score on him, Beterbiev will position himself to take a punch or 2 to deliver his with bad intentions. I think a split decision win for Artur that is decided by a few knock downs. I respect Bivol too much to call in a KO.
