Sullivan Barrera will shock the world and defeat Bivol

[_original_]

Barrera couldn't even manage to make one round competitive against Andre Ward. Yes, Ward is great and we all expected him to lose that one, but for a guy to not even manage to make one round close against a guy coming off injuries and layoffs is concerning. Sure he's improved and has since picked up some nice wins but I don't think he'll have enough against Bivol who looks to be the goods.

I have seen them both fight and I think Bivol will win all the rounds and win by KO. We shall see in a few hours. When a boxer is very good and people say he is very good that isn't hype. That's just the truth.

Sullivan barrera is so underrated. He is a top flight light heavy who doesn't get the credit he deserve for OBVIOUS reasons.


Bivol has the hand speed advantage but that's about it. Sullivan has more power, tougher, and will bring the dog fight to him for 12 rounds.


Hbo is banking on Bivol as the new white (really asian) hype. Sullivan barrera will put a dent into HBO's plan once again

Barrera had a chance to be the next big thing, but he lost he's unbeaten record. Without the 0 you don't get the hype, you don't have the mystery. Barrera is nothing special, he gets exactly the credit he deserves. He's top ten and that's it. He'll show that once again when he loses to Bivol.

Easy easy win for bivol. I'd be shocked if Barrera survives.

"Sullivan Barrera is going to mildly surprise some of you on the forum" might be a more accurate thread title but it's not as catchy

LOL this is what I'm thinking myself.

Its an upset, but idk that THAT many people are invested in this fight or necessarily sold on Bivol THAT much for this to be some Ali over Liston or Buster over Tyson thing.

Randomly the line for this fight is wayyyyy outta wack so if you are betting on this fight & not beating Barrera idk wtf you are thinking cuz its a 55/45, 60/40 Bivol type fight best case probably, but the odds are saying its 85/15 Bivol which is nuts.

It won't shock the world, some are picking him to beat Bivol.

Also, people seem to forget Ward handled and dropped Barrera in his debut fight at 175. They don't even give him credit for that lol.

I have bivol outboxing barrera at midrange, landing the better shots and making him pay for his lunging shots for a midround tko.

I don't know how much of a shock it'll be. It's a 50/50 fight.
