Dmitry Yuryevich Bivol vs. Gilberto Ramírez Sánchez & Shavkatdzhon Rakhimov vs. Zelfa Barrett RBR.

He meant to win a round

 

Bivol schools Beterbiev until the bodyshots slow him down and then Beterbiev closes the gap and catches him with regularity and finishes it.

Next year Beterbiev will rearch 20-0 with 20 KOs.

Dont compare Ramirez to Calzaghe again any of u .. I've seen this mentioned a few times on here ...the guy barely beat Jesse Hart and just got schooled by Bivol.. no shame in that but Ramirez could only dream of putting on a masterclass performance like Calzaghe could

 

Canelo doesn’t want Bivol again. Let Bivol fight Beterbiev.

 

Sort of....

 

Good score cards. Ramirez was slow and really didn't bring the pressure I expected. Bivol had quick, clean punching and excellent footwork. He controlled the ring and the distance pretty well the entire fight. I wouldn't say it was a great fight but it was a very convincing win for Bivol. Would be interesting to see Bivol drop to 168 for a rematch against canelo for the belts. A Beterbiev fight would be my first choice but I'm fine with either.

 

Loving the Brit/Yank mix of commentary.

 

Ha Crawford, who's best win is Postol, alright then.

 

Though it's frustrating, we know that Bivol doesn't have that mentality already. But Zurdo is the guy upon whom it was more incumbent to go all-out, considering how he'd leaked rounds through 1–6. He looked dejected throughout most of the fight and like he wanted to quit at one stage. There's no shame in losing to Bivol, but that was just not a spirited or desirous enough display.

 

P4P Crawford is clearly superior to Fury.

 

Bivol was fighting in neutral for that one though, he was on cruise control throught

 

Few things.

• lol at Bivol doing the Sugar Ray Leonard. He would throw those combinations at the end of rounds. He did say Leonard was his favorite boxer.
  
  
• Bivol = Fighter of the Year. This was a domination against the #3 ranked guy at 175lb after also schooling Canelo.
  
  
• Bivol and Usyk embody the sweet science at its best--great defense without 100 clinches and staying on the backfoot.
  

 

its a real 50-50 fight, I’m a big beterbiev fan as you can probs tell by my avatar. Most of the time at world level when it’s boxer vs puncher I lean with the boxer but it’s a real pick em fight this time.

but with bivol beterviev there’s a lot to read into witch makes me see the argument for both men but I still lean towards artur.

a big part of this fight with me who can occupy the high guard of the other.

but for artur to win when bivol likes to get off his combinations you can actually see he hangs his chin out in the air but he never gets greedy he gets off his work and gets out but artur will be the first fighter bivol has faced who will quite happily throw with him also I think artur can exploit bivol guard by going head body head once he gets bivol dropping his guard to cover for the body shots he’s got to club right up top also artur has shone he’s capable of landing heavy and stopping his opponents even when on the back foot and he uses a lot more angles of attack than given credit for.

Keys for bivol to win is to offset artur rythmn don’t let him get his feet set in out in out use his lead hand controls and keep artur turning constantly keep him off balance but he won’t be able to throw with artur as much as he did tonight with zurdo.
