    Comments Thread For: Dmitry Bivol's Future Includes Targeting a World Title at 168

    Bivol looks really good but he needs a step up fight his next fight IF he gets past Smith. Too many B-level guys in a row now his entire career. He's 28, not 20. The time is right now. DAZN failed to get Usyk a big fight this summer, let's see if they also fail with Bivol.

      Yeah but Usyk is a made man. Not realistic to compare Bivol and him. Usyk is a badddd dude!

        Bivol vs Callum Smith, or Canelo, yes, I like it.

          Same here, but I like Canelo option for the same reason i like the Spence vs Garcia fight. One major catch, the bigger Bivol seems able to match Canelo's hand speed and is just as mobile.

                I respect Russian fighters, but I don't get what the deal is with them and weight classes.

                  I'm ok with that. He's a small 175.

                    He’s definitely a small LH compared with some of the monsters at the weight, but that being said, Smith and Benavidez and Plant aren’t exactly small.

                    Seems like a good move for Bivol - wouldn’t mind seeing him give Eubank Jr a boxing lesson!
