    What Is Boxing Going To Do About Boring Fighters Like Dmitry Bivol?

    I just got done watching the Bivol vs Castillo fight and it was soooo boring that I almost fell asleep. Fighters like Bivol is what’s killing boxing, no one wants to watch an overly cautious fighter throw a bunch of jabs and a few puff-ball power punches. The crowd even BOOED his terrible performance.

    Yeah, it's best to go for it and give the fans everything. That's how you get to be a name. Even when you can coast, it's not a good idea if you want the big money.

        Yeah, it looks like Bivol lost his mean streak. I remember him dominating Barrera beautifully then TKOing him at 12. Now he's just content on coaxing.

          Barrera came to fight all 12 rounds.

                You should strip him of his win because it was boring, Usyk too!
