    Yeah... that's what happened.

    Again, don't poke the bear. You can't go needling someone while they're distressed and then cry foul if they erupt.

    There's such a thing as sore losers, yes - but nor is a sore winner something you want to be. The knife is there, fine, don't twist it.

    Were I you I would cease all interactions with my colleague in this RBR thread, immediately.

    Just blown away! What a fantastic fight & performance from Artur Beterbiev. Don't mind admitting I picked this one completely wrong lol. Hopefully we can actually still get a decent career out of the LHW king from here on out, because wow what a ferocious treat to watch. He breaks into my top 5 P4P easy after that. If I'm Bivol's management team, I'm pleading with him to stay far away from this man. Either refuse the unification fight over vacate and head down to SMW (and I've been more of a Bivol fan then AB up until tonight.) Gilberto might want to stear very clear of this savage as well, just saying.

    Probably, but Bivol is faster than Beterbiev and has good stamina.

    Bivol isn't a very big LHW, he probably belongs at SMW and he doesn't punch hard enough to get AB respect. I think he gets walked down just like the Nail and stopped. But maybe I'm wrong and Bivol is better than I think he is.

    Anyone who says Beterbiev has bad defense doesn't know what they are talking about.

    This fight couldn't have gone any better. The divisions two best fighters squared off in a great fight and in a battle of attrition we got a clear winner without any BS. Both men are a credit to the sport. The Nail can come again and Beterbiev is now the 175 king.

    Kovalev has no chance vs. such Beterbiev. Sergey can end up in a hospital after that fight...

    Defense, chin and stamina were all of a higher grade than I expected to give him in this match-up.

    Despite being a real killer in there, Artur Beterbiev is very likeable. Feels like boxing has received a great new star (even though we here at ESB were well aware of him). The previous career derailment may or may not have taken away from his ascension through the professional ranks, but he has proved that he is here now.

    Im excited for AB vs Bivol though.

    Glad AB is finally getting his legacy fights.

    No he would not. Not even close. He'd be destroyed so damn quickly and conclusively.
