Comments Thread For: Artur Beterbiev unifies light heavyweight titles after brilliant fight with Dmitry Bivol

Nope Lol bivol lost by cozing the last 3 rounds. He shouldn't have done that since it was such a close fight.

The scores indicate that the championship rounds didn’t mean much. And bivol clearly won round 11

I think the location of the fight and religious affiliation had a significant influence on a few close rounds. Turki calls Beterbiev "brother" so that in itself would change the outcome in a close fight.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ this right there.

People using the term 'robbed' are clearly just clouded with emotional bias. It was a razor close fight with a few swing rounds that could have gone either way. Neither fighter deserved to lose but it's as far from a robbery as you'll get

I had Bivol winning the fight by one or two rounds. He thought he won too at the end of the fight, and Beterbiev looked concerned he'd lost.

Great fight! For me it was a draw or a win for Bivol, his skills were unbelievable. Did not feel Beterbiev won the fight. A lot of his punches landed on Bivol's gloves. Would love to see it again.

I had it for Bivol by a round. Beterbiev just wasn't landing clean shots like Bivol did most of the fight.
I cannot for the life of me see how it was 116-112, honestly feels dodgy that card.
Beterbiev took over at the end but it felt like Bivol won the fight. He really should have gone all out in the 12th but maybe he was just too tired.

In a close fight were one ****** and one Christian in a ****** country fought. Guess who was given the victory? Arthur sounded like he lost and he knew he did, Bivol looked mad as if he knew he won. Sad day for boxing now no one will trust ridah season anymore. I ain’t a fan of either but I saw Bivol win 115-113.

It was a closed fight and a closed decision. A rematch is a must! Great fight!

As much of an Artur Beterbiev fan I am, I thought bivol won. No way beterbiev is winning a decision. Must to be something with the chechnya warlock jumping to the ring after the fight or the fact that Artur is ****** .

Can people that keep screaming robbery share with us their card? Because that fight was anything but a robbery. I don't get why some so-called ''fans'' scream robbery at every close fight. I thought that was a very close 115-113 fight that could've went either way but I feel like Beterbiev won that fight in the championship rounds. I personally had it even going into the 12th.
