    Bivol should drop Wbc belt IMO. F.uck them. They didn't want him to fight for their belt anyway.

    But be sure, if Bivol fights Artur again, Wbc will want to be part of it.

    Why didn't Wbc strip Canelo for not fightibg Benavidez?

        VS what Alvarez & Artur did to fresher stronger versions of them
        Funny how people try to use triangle theories despite them being proven unreliable time and time again. As far as plant, he was actually in better condition and better trained with his new trainer (and had a bigger ring to work with), vs Benavidez. For Gvozdyk, he was actually winning his fight against beterbiev before being stopped in the 11th.

          Interesting how now is when rhe Wbc wants to enforce Benavidez as a mandatory but never did so at 168 despite him having that position for 3 years. Yet bivol had that belt for less than a week but is being ordered to fight him.

            all 3 are pressure fighters

            Artur and Alvarez are great pressure. David is good pressure

            Most important would be David ability to cut off the ring

            Long night for Bivol if David can cut him off

              I want to see this fight way more than I want to see Bivol and Artur again (though I have no problem watching a third bout). That being said, I see a repeat of Bivol vs Zurdo here; hope Benavidez proves me wrong, but Bivol is the tallest order at 175 for everyone.

                  Not disagreeing with that, but I still think it'll be a clear points win for Bivol.

                    id say it will be a 50/50 split on who people will think will win!!! maybe bivol slight fav actually since hes more proven but styles make fights at this level often so u never know!!

                      Something I just thought of:

                      Beterbiev said he hadn't even wanted the rematch this soon, could it be possible that he had the option of doing the trilogy fight next (which is not the usual way these things are done, btw) but insisted that he didn't want to do it that soon?
