Comments Thread For: Artur Beterbiev-Deon Nicholson added to November 22 Riyadh show

Nicholson's record is a joke, and yet... he will be making a decent payday thanks to Turkish D. This said, how can you blame Beterbiev for not taking the money, specially nearing the end of his career?

One can understand Bivol dragging his feet on the rubber match because beating Beterviev is the biggest accomplishment of his career, but c’mon, he has unfinished business and it’s not a good look. Maybe he’s hoping that without the undisputed championship on the line 40-plus Beter is just going to call it a day and retire.

I rather see Beterbiev against Benavidez than Bivol again.

s t u p i d pointless matchmaking again. if it's not bivol or benavidez, he should fight eifert for good money. that would at least make beterbiev #1 for all 4 bodies.
i honestly don't know what bivol is doing. 6 months have passed since his last fight. mandatories are benavidez, eifert and callum and everybody supported the trilogy. bivol could have arranged any of those four fights already. if he doesn't want them, just move up or retire. wasting time is the worst and he is 35 which is old.

Apart from Benevidez I'm struggling to think who else Beterbiev should fight. Maybe Morrell. Maybe Benevidez is the plan as they're won't be any gap between their respective fights. If nothing else this should be a KO

It’s a long shot but chance of Bivol fighting again this year in December?

Has had meetings with his manager two days in a row now

[brankobugarski]

To me it sounds like Bivol has made too much money from the last two fights and lost his desire for boxing. Wouldn't be the first athlete to do so.

[SUBZER0ED]

So Bivol has jeeted on boxing

Etarded as hell because Artur trilogy this year was the reason Bivol threw away the wbc belt

Bivol has disappointed me. To duck both Beterbiev and Benavidez is a shock. I thought he had more cajónes than that.

needs to relinquish his remaining belts if his plan is to jeet the year out without saying a word

Let Buff Guy Yarde Buff Guy Artur and the David’s fight for those 3 belts

Dont mind not seeing a third consecutive fight tbh, but the matchmaking could've been better ffs.
