    Could Bivol or Beterbiev last 12 rounds with Joshua?

    Jake Paul couldn't handle the physicality of Joshua when they got close and started to crumble after a few rounds. But could a top-tier conditioned smaller guy like Bivol do the job?

    I think Bivol has the savvy to go 12 and could even win a decision. Beterbiev has a chance to stop AJ or get stopped himself.

      Probably. Especially Bivol with his movement. Beterbiev could probably hurt Joshua but he's also 40. But both Beterbiev and Bivol wouldn't be pulling a Rigondeaux in the ring like Jake did. They'd actually engage and try to win rounds, so who knows. I wouldn't bet on either of them actually winning the fight, although I could see their winning a points decision if their plan worked perfectly.

            Josh would have a good 50 or 60 pounds over each of these guys

                  Running around a 22 foot ring and throwing themselves to the ground? Yes they could. But they wouldn't, because they are boxers.

                  Anyone claiming Paul 'lasted ' 6 rounds didn't watch it. He lasted zero rounds of actual fighting.
