    The Post fight interviews pretty much sum up both Beterbiev and Bivol

    Beterbiev was honest to a fault. Didn’t shy away from criticising himself. Despite knowing that the result may already be controversial.

    Bivol did not make a single excuse. Not even a statement disguised as an excuse. Even though it was obvious he was hurt from the decision.

    2 top warriors.

    Beterbiev said it wasn't a difficult fight, just awkward – and that he wasn't fighting very well. Whereas in reality it was because he was fighting another elite light-heavy. He did say he was skilled though so that is giving some good props.

      I was one of the few who said Bet has a higher chance of getting a decision than winning by stoppage

      Big punchers don't stop every opponent once they fight the very best

      good times with dumbo casuals who thought Bet is a more gifted KO puncher than Ray Robinson

        I thought beterbiev would lose, and he won, even if controversially.
        so he did better than I predicted.
        So well done

          Both Beterbiev and Bivol displayed incredible sportsmanship. Beterbiev's honesty in self-critique shows his commitment to growth, while Bivol's refusal to make excuses highlights his integrity as a fighter.

            Despite what people say Beterbiev did win the first fight and Bivol did rightfully win the rematch.

              What qualities do you think set Beterbiev and Bivol apart as top warriors in boxing, and how do their contrasting personalities influence their performances in the ring?
