    Dmitry Bivol vs Isaac Chilemba possible

    As co-main for Kovalev vs Alvarez. Not a great fight but it'll deepen Bivol's resume some...

    Not the worst fight. They need to make Kovalev-Bivol next.

      Not great, but also not a lot of good options for Bivol right now, so a tricky guy like Chilemba can serve as a good learning fight

        Kovalev didn't manage to stop Chilemba. Let's see if Bivol can.

        Chilemba could have won against Alvarez.

          I am a Bivol fan and I believe he can beat any light heavyweight. I'd like to see him fight the best available including Kovalev. I think Kovalez is a damn good light heavyweight but I think Bivol would beat him.

            Chilemba is a tough awkward guy...he did really good against Eleider Alvarez. Bivol can learn from this

                No he did not, but he beat him up pretty badly over 12 rounds, which in my opinion is worse on the body than a short fight ending in a KO. And then he got another beating by Gvozdyk, hurting his elbow in the third round, and stopping the fight in the eighth I think. So it will definitely not be the same Chilemba anymore.

                He can still prove to be tricky and I think it's an ok fight for Bivol.

                  Hats off to Chilemba to take them all... His resume is better than most of the LHW Champs ...
