    I was surprised how many people on different forums were talking about Bivol like he is as talented/good, as Vasyl Lomachenko and Oleksandr Usyk. He clearly isn't - it is evident now as well as it was evident in their amateurs days. Loma and Usyk are on completely different level.

    The Usyk who struggled so with Michael Hunter and just barely got past Briedis?

    Who the **** is Michael Hunter again? He's a big name right?

    Who said that Bivol is as talented as those guys? No one is, and there’s no shame in that.

    LOL, winning 117-110 on all cards is struggling? And Briedis in MILLIONS times better than anyone on Bilvols resume.

    Gvozdyk and Kovalev beat Chilemba easier than Bivol did.

    Clearly Kovalev is on another level and Gvozdyk is tough but give Bivol some time It wouldnt surprise me if Bivol closes the gap in the future.

    For those who think that I hate Bivol, "cause he is Russian" - LOL. He is 0% Russian. His father is Moldavan, his mother is Korean, he was born in Kyrgyzstan. Kovalev is 100% Russian and I think he is clearly better than Bivol.

    It means he lost 1/3 of the rounds.

    Losing 1 in 3 rounds to a no-name? That's not nothing.

    EDIT: I am ******ed. It's 1/4, not 1/3.

    Hunter gave hell to Beterbiev at the Olympics, he also KO'ed Ruiz Jr. and Oscar Rivas in the amateurs. He is very talented guy. Better than Tabiti.

    Chilemba made Sergey look like meh, and the score cards for that fight were a lot closer then Bivol's and Kovalev fought him in Russia.
