    The biggest & most shameful duck EVER was Floyd running from Margarito, With the internet today most everyone has seen the way Floyd embarrassed himself when Antonio merely asked him "why wont you fight me"? Hardly call him TBE could you ROFLMAO

    Ward most certainly ducked him. Otherwise why didn't he try to unify at 175 after believing he'd beat the most dangerous fighter there already?
    Looks like Bivol has been avoiding him for a while too.
    It's basically the Golovkin story at 175 and in the end everyone will pretend Beterbiev ducked all the top fighters and never beat anyone great.
    If boxing was a real sport, the top fighters would be made to fight.

    Bivols team don't want Beterbiev fight. even at that age.

    Bivols trainer is scared of Beterbiev, he knows Bivols physical weakness, he even admitted in the interview that Bivol needs extra months to prepare for him.


    We as boxing fans should put pressure on Bivol and call him a duck(Hearn included)

    Your reading comprehension is something to mock.
    He said that Bivol is a paper champ because he never won the belt off of anyone. Bivol got the BS interim belt, then upgraded to WBA regular belt and later got the Super belt when Ward retired. He never beat a top opponent to be crowned champion.
    Nothing was said about Bivol´s ability or quality as a fighter.

    Pretty sure Hearn doesn´t want the fight either. TR will be adamant about it being on ESPN, best case is a joint PPV. It´s too big of a hassle and Hearn would rather have Bivol fight his stable instead, and of course Canelo.

    I know that Beterbiev wants that last belt and there is no reason why this fight should not happen at the end of the year.

    Imagine Card in Saudi, that include:
    Usyk vs Fury
    AJ vs Wilder
    Beterbiev vs Bivol
    Loma vs Shakur

    Best $150 that boxing fan could spend

    That would be epic and an insane way to end 2023.

    The money would be too good to turn down for anyone.

    Floyd made excuses for it. Fury is making excuses for ducking Usyk. Crawford and Spence are making excuses for ducking each other. People dont like being lied to.

    Bivol isnt lying. Hes not making excuses. He just doesnt want it.

    Lucky he was wearing his brown pants. Floyd just cherry picked the low hanging fruit. It doesn't matter how good you look if you avoid the challenges.

    Based on what ? Only one LHW Champion has actively sought out the other Champions in the division for there belts and it’s certainly not Bivol. Bivol has been WBA Champion since 2017 and still to this day has not yet fought any Champion in the LHW division ! Boxrec having Bivol ranked at no1 in the division above Beterbiev is a complete P*SS take !
