    Why Bivol isn't nicknamed "The Buffalo" ? Because his name means translated from Romanian/Moldovian to English "Buffalo". His father is an ethnic Moldovan.

      Bivol will clip Barrera. He looks like an assassin out of the ring.

        Not quite sold on either of them.. Both have qualities, and weaknesses; Bivol has power but untested ruggedness, while Barrera has experience but cracks in the armour. Should be a good one. Going with Bivol... only on a hunch.

              I have a gut feeling that Barrera will stop Bivol late

              GOOD fight !

                  I feel the same way but I am sold in whether he can knock a top opponent out but Barrera has the goods and has improved since he lost to Ward

                    Some good fights involving Cubans coming up. Barrera-bivol, Dorticos is fighting too, Hopefully Ortiz-wilder, Barthelemy. Neslan and Socarras should be fighting soon just like Ramon Nicolas, really looking forward to see this kid. Forestal too. Lets see who emerges as an elite fighter...
