What's the hold up?

Top Soviet Bivol allowing a random europoid to jerk him around

Russians are supposed to be great at smacking germanoids

No one cares about this duck who ducked the trilogy and Benavidez

Top Duck Bivol, you mean. Holding up the division and stopping better fights from happening.

Bivol had all the belts, its pointless fighting cans to hold onto them. Just drop it and fight a worthwhile opponent.

SteveM - see above for examples of what I mean about edgelords. Bivol fought Beterbiev twice and two soft Americans on a forum think they've got the right to criticise.

Bivol was injured. Were he Mexican or American he would have been given the opportunity to leverage his hard earned status as an 'undisputed' champion before fighting Benavidez. But because he's from Kyrgyzstan, and Sulaiman was determined to give the belt to Benavidez, he was stripped within months (unlike Canelo).

Bivol beating Beterbiev was the worst thing to happen. He promised Beterbiev an immediate trilogy used that excuse to avoid fighting Benavidez. Then only after the Russian investor dropped out of the Trilogy negotiation he decided to go for surgery instead of going ahead with the trilogy fight. And now he wants to fight his mandatory instead of vacating the belt and sticking to his promise to Beterbiev. Plus he would show the IBF what happens when you impose D level fighters that don't deserve a world title shot as the mandatory.

If Beterbiev would have won he would have fought Benavidez and the winner would have knocked out this Eifert guy in 3 rounds max. Bivol messed up the whole division he should have told everyone right away that he goes for surgery and maybe just maybe after that he might fight the top guys.

Top Soviet Bivol delays caused boxing to miss out on Fat Dave-Buff Guy Artur

Buff Guy Artur could have had the chance to take back his wbc title from belt holder Dave
