His style of boxing is to punch people in the head and body
Can someone tell me a bit more about Dmitry Bivol?

I hadn't heard a 175 Mikey Garcia, but I like that comparison, styles are pretty similar when adjusting for weight class. Bivol's size is the only real disadvantage I see for him at LHW. I think he has more or at least similar power to Gvozdyk, but a better chin and I think he's a much better boxer than Beterbiev. He's the guy that looks to have the least amount of flaws of all the up and comers at 175 imoComment

Bivol is like a big GGG but a lot harder to hit. He's Eastern European and Korean just like a GGG . I watch him spar at wildcard all the time I'm not going to name any names but world-class fighters were saying he's fast strong and smart everyone else at the gym was saying he's got perfect timing. I believe the only man that could beat him is Andre WardComment

i think mikey is a decent comparison i guess. better than golovkin. i'd describe him as a very european fighter. well rounded, technically sound guy. garcia hurts you with big shots when you miss or mess up, bivol uses combinations and in and out motion. but both guys are techincally sound fighters who are also powerful and box with the intent of being dangerous. those are usually the most dangerous kind of fighters. garcia and bivol do not have elite speed.
he's much more of an in and out fighter than golovkin. golovkin is a skilled pressurer and jabber, but he's not a fleet boxer and bivol looks like he has some f that fleetness. fights like a younger guy than golovkin ever did on american shores. lots of these european guys areComment
