Bivol will nullify Beterbiev power with his speed and movement. Bivol wins by decision.

If Dimtri Bivol was a known power puncher historically? Then this fight would not be deemed as a 50/50 fight. But regardless of that factor, Bivol is still without World to Elite level power, a slight favourite in this fight.
But when you compare each of these fighters, and their best attribute's 'Arthur Beterbiev attribute's are more destructive, and able to almost entirely negate his opponent's best attributes. I would say that in solid form, or at his absolute peak? Beterbiev has the ability to cancel out the momentum of his opponents more severely and conclusively than Dimtri Bivol'.
Dimtri Bivol's best attributes are more efficient at hindering, damping and nullifying his opponent's best attributes systematically over the distance 'But that is over the distance, Bivol's opponent's are most of the time still in the fights against him and trying to win. While in comparison Arthur Beterbiev's opponent's are canceled out, and knocked out. Out of his 20 wins in his career, none of his competition have been able to negate his brute strength and power'.
I would not be surprised in the slightest, if Dimtri Bivol from the beginning of the action in this fight 'Is winning rounds, and scoring points. Because historically when two diametrically opposing styles and classical boxing archetypes like this have clashed? The classical skill for skill boxer has always been able to win rounds'.
Coming into this fight, nobody is really questioning whether Bivol can win rounds and score points 'But what may be a very importance factor in this fight? Will be whether Bivol can substantially inflict damage upon Arthur Beterbiev'.
Professional boxing, is not a semi-violent game of tick 'Ultimately the primary objective, is to render your opponent incapable of fighting back. The primary objective is not to win over the distance on points, that is just another path towards victory after the ultimate primary objective'.
This is a historical fact, if we where to go back in history 'Then you will understand, that fights during past era's were not won on points'.
Note: Once upon a time boxers used to fight under the 'London Prize Fighting rules 1838' which consisted of a potential unlimited number of rounds that could be fought during the fight.
During those fighting era's, fighters and people knew unequivocally who the victor of the fight was 'Because the only way a fighter could win and be declared, is if one opponent was unable ether get up off the deck and return to the centre scratch line of the ring.
Even when the 'Marquess Of Queensberry Rules 1867' were introduced into boxing, the most amount of rounds that a fight could last was 45 rounds 'Fighters would be fighting for a duration of over 2 hours potentially'.
Arthur Beterbiev in all of his professional boxing fights, has essentially won all of his fights 'By achieving the primary objective of the sport historical. Dimtri Bivol has not won all of his fights in this fashion'.
So? Similarly like I stated at the beginning of this post 'If Dimtri Bivol was a known power puncher, than this fight would not be a 50/50. Well, if this boxing contest was sanctioned under the London Prize Fighting Rules 1838, then Arthur Beterbiev would have to be a extremely strong favourite to win. Because out of the two fighters, he is the fighter's who has shown the ability to win by achieving the ultimate feat and objective of the sport historically many more times at top level'.
To conclude: I don't think it is very difficult for people to inversion a fight, where Dimtri Bivol is winning rounds and scoring points 'Most people within the boxing community are expecting him to be able to win rounds. In terms of being able to score points, and hit the target'.
What is difficult, is to envision Dimtri Bivol inflicting serious damage upon a Arthur Beterbiev who is in solid form, equal to or greater than his recent fights. And I believe? If a fighter is not able to inflict serious damage up Beterbiev, enough to hinder his offense or momentum in the fight.
Then the fight becomes like the movie Mission Impossible, at some point in the fight? Arthur Beterbiev's brute strength and power is going to breach the defense of his opponent's. Once the fight becomes his genre of action, none of his opponent's have been able to survive his brute strength and power.
Right now, this is the style of fight which I am mostly anticipating 'Dimtri Bivol wining rounds, and scoring points. But potentially not really inflicting a substantial level of damage upon Arthur Beterbiev. And this may create a impeding sense of doom and peril for Bivol, as the rounds progress. And Beterbiev gradually goes through the gears and the rounds become more difficult to dominate and win for Bivol' etc.

Not too interested in this division and up. Beterbiev has seen it all, Bivol would be no different.Comment

I just cant see Bivol hurting Beterbiev. Thats going to be a BIG problem. Beterbiev will not respect him and will walk him down and catch him.
Beterbiev by KO inside of 10.
Lots of RUNNING. Could be a stinker.Comment
