really should be bivol vs beterbiev, but i dont blame him if he can fight for canelos vacant belt against ramirez.

And then Bivol/Beterbiev is for everything

indeed, why im not opposed to this tbh. if it were a standard title defense id call it a cherrypick given ramirez only just dipped his toes into lhw

Will take some work to get Bivol the fight. Zurdo is #1 and Bivol isn’t ranked since he’s a champ. Likely why Bivol is campaigning for it, because why would Zurdo fight Bivol for the belt when he can fight #2 ranked Umar Salamov? (Though Hart was #3 so I wouldn’t be surprised to see it get updated as Zurdo vs Joe Smith Jr)

Bivol vs Ramirez will happen but not next for either one. Why eliminate 2 of three events to unify two belts? That's from the promoters point of view. I would guess.. With WBO belt open there is one title fight. Another one with Bivol defending and then unify the two. Three times the benefit for the same outcome. How that turns out is what I can't wait to see. Alot of people aren't sold on Zurdo and have fair reasons. I belive we will see a new version of Gillberto Ramirez at this weight. A wrecking machine more like it.

Ramirez won't take that fight because he can fight some stiff for the vacant WBO belt later. Bivol beats the tall clumsy Mexican up anyway.

Needs to step up and fight Beterbiev
