An attempt to be undisputed in a fistic sport such as boxing is tantamount to seeking greatness. That was what Artur Beterbiev and Dmitry Bivol had in mind when they went head-to-head last Saturday.

Bivol showed better defense and sharper punches. Beterbiev got a gift decision. Rematch is needed!

[Raimondo]

A rematch would settle this dispute. Close fight.

Nothing even slightly controversial about this fight or decision.

No idea why Fury Usyk is on this particular list, there was only ever one winner in that fight.

They've both had equally as decisive (imperative word) rounds (3) but Uysk also dropped Fury in one them (9) and for some people who don't understand the rules should've stopped Fury.

If it went the way of Fury it would've been an outrage.

The only real questionable decision on this list was the foster fight, he was the obvious winner and got robbed.

All fights that go to points potentially if not just by their very nature are "controversial" given it's meaning (give rise to prolonged public disagreement or heated discussion).

Even some stoppages are controversial á la AJ vs Ruiz plenty of people think AJ quit others believe he didn't & the ref screwed him over and others think it was a legit stoppage...
