Comments Thread For: Dmitry Bivol is More Than Ready To Face Marcus Browne

[Scipio2009]

Way to ignore my points and then make your own points which were already disproven by my points which you ignored. Makes logical discussion impossible. TL;DR Bivol is just as big a fight for Browne as Gvozdyk. But it's all good, vs Gvozdyk Browne won't have a 1.5 weight class size advantage in the ring like he would against Bivol, which is probably his best chance at beating any of the titlists, weight bullying and using heavy fouls with a 10-11 lbs weight advantage in the ring to wear down the more talented boxer across from him. Gvozdyk is not as "good" as Bivol but he's still better than Browne and won't be at a size disadvantage, which is really Browne's big advantage over either of them except he only has it over one of them, the one you don't want him to fight.

So it might be better for the LHW division if Gvozdyk-Browne is the fight that happens, not Bivol. I personally just wanted a good fight to look forward to in the summer but I guess you have other agendas.

It's not though. Bivol vs Browne does very little, business wise, as a headline fight.

Gvozdyk vs Browne, business wise, does far better as a headline fight (ESPN likely carrying the fight, the stories involved in the matchup, etc).

No one is arguing the quality of the fight here, in either matchup; frankly, that's not the point.

Marcus Browne is sitting with options, and that's not changing anytime soon, regardless of how much you wish Bivol had a fight that mattered on DAZN.

Not when the champ wants it, when the WBA orders it. Which yes, should generally be waited to when the champ wants it IF the champ wants it ASAP, otherwise if the champ is trying to delay it, the sanctioning body should step in and order it when the contender wants it in order to enforce the contender's rights.

Otherwise, if the mandatory #1 conetender isn't ready yet to face the champion in the champion's next fight, provided there is fair notice given and both schedules are clear, then why is he the mandatory? The whole point of determining a #1 contender mandatory to the champion is to determine a challenger to the champion. If Browne isn't ready to face Bivol, then why is he mandatory to Bivol's belt? The champ is ready to get his mandatory out of the way so he can move to bigger fights. If Browne isn't ready to be his mandatory yet, then someone else should have the spot. If Browne is holding out for a WBC title shot, then he should drop the WBA mandatory position that he's planning to forego and never use. Simple.

Why are you talking as if Marcus Browne called for an eliminator to be the WBA mandatory? lol

Browne is the man in the division IMO!

He has the size, speed and boxing ability as well as a dirty, roughhouse type style which can throw anyone off!

I think he beats Bivol who fights like someone who wants to score points fast which won’t work against a guy who is faster and is willing to get rough on the inside!

Should be a good one but I think Browne wins a clear but competitive decision win!

Kalajdzic whipped Brownes ass already

I got Browne over Bivol- too much size, reach, speed, and reflexes.
Bivol doesn't have the pop to deter Browne

Browne doesn't have a great chin man, Bivol can definitely hurt him and even stop him.

[MehdiQaos]

Bivol is just too small for the division he should move to 168

[John Locke]

Bivol is too skilled for Browne

[Nusky]

I'm pretty sure Browne beats Bivol. That's a good fight though that I wouldn't mind seeing.

Bivol will be the most skilled opponent that Browne has faced since he got a gift win against Hot Rod

... there was a KD ruled against Kalajdzic which never happened...

Yeah that's what I'm saying. It was corrupt as sh#t. Browne should have a loss on his record already
