Comments Thread For: Dmitry Bivol gains revenge to tee up trilogy with Artur Beterbiev

[Theshotyoudontsee]

actually I’m a Floyd fan and believe in back foot boxing

running is what Lara did in the Alvarez fight

Bivol did some running in the first fight too

Running is Defensively backpedaling without throwing enough to score

Bivol ran and did nothing for most of the rounds. He landed flurries in spurts while running backwards the majority of the fight so Biev had to chase him. That is running. Moving back out of the way when a punch is thrown, head movement, lateral movement, etc. That is solid defense.

Running around the ring as Biev chases you so he can't hit you is running. Period. Then throwing some flurries at the end of the round to make it appear as if you are being aggresssive. That is running with a plan to make it look like you arent stealing rounds.

Biev rocked him and had him shook and then he just stopped.

Thrown.

Told ya! Beterbiev is old and can’t do nothing about it so stop denying it.

I had Bivol winning the last time and by a wider margin this time. I don’t know how people, even paid commentators, can give Beterbiev rounds simply because he’s on the front foot while Bivol backs up. In both fights Beterbiev was landing on the guard while Bivol tatooed him with flurries of accurate punching while on the move. Bivol was even more active this time and didn’t let Beterbiev finish strong to knick the rounds in the last 30 seconds. A clear victory!

Both men fought a good fight, and even though Beterbiev keeps on coming the judges got it right this time around! Bivol definitely deserved the decision! There sure are a lot of Bivol hating crybabies on this these comments!

I like both Bivol and Biev. I picked Bivol against Canelo. The way Bivol fights against Biev is embarrassing.

I can see benavidez beating Bivol, Bivol should be forced to fight benavidez first and winner fights beterbiev

Why should Bivol be "forced" to fight Benavidez (or anyone else)? Why shouldn't Beterbiev fight Benavidez first and the winner fight Bivol? If anyone can call the shots, it's the champion.

Think they should both fight the next best contenders ahead of a trilogy. Bivol v Smith and Beterbiev v Benevidez
