Bivol beats Callum Smith. You guys got to see Smith vs Skoglund and rewatch Groves vs Smith. He had major problems with Skoglund jab, Bivols jab is better. Bivol would outbox Smith like Groves did early, but he won't get caught and knocked out like Groves did.

Originally posted by DuckAdonis View PostYeah that's true but Groves was outboxing him imo, I had him up 4-2 if I remember. His lateral movement and Jab made Callum lose some rounds. Bivol is an even better boxer than Groves imo and he is bigger and hits harder. Can't see Callum Smith KO'ing Bivol or outboxing him. I got Bivol, but it's a great fight.
I don't know if he could beat Bivol, but it would be a competitive fight, imo. Depends what weight they fought at too. Bivol could be weaker at 168 and Smith might turn out to be a monster at 175 with a bit more weight and muscle on his frame.

It should have been clear to you on first read through I wasn't talking about these "boxing experts" in a complimentary way. But you chose to purposely misconstrue my words. So don't moan about it when I then have to further explain it to you in dumbed down terms, you ****.
And 80% of the new registrations on here are just Robbie/Earl alt accounts.

Also, I don’t know how he hasn’t even had one fight at 175.

175 is a nightmare of a division, and was even more so when Bivol took the decision to campaign there. Packed with scary monsters, but without any cash cows.Last edited by kafkod; 03-11-2019, 09:03 AM.

168 is huge in the UK (where you're from) but in all honesty, it's nothing on this side of the world. No scary monsters OR cash cows. 175, hot or not will get him worldwide exposure.

Bivol should stay in his current division, there are a lot better opponents for him to fight. If he drops down and fights Smith and beats him...Then what?
