Would you be suprised if Dmitry Bivol beat Jai Opetaia at cruiser ?

Yes Opetaia is too strong for Bivol.

 

Yes, I'd be surprised if anybody beats Opetaia any time soon.

Scariest thing is, I don't think he has reached his prime yet.

 

I want to see Bivol fight a LHW Champion first from his own division before even thinking of a Cruiserweight fight .

 

Honestly, if Bivol beats Beterbiev and Opetai back to back you can rank him wherever you want imo.

 

Bivol doesn't look like a guy who's success would carry over 15 lbs heavier. Not from the fights I've seen (and I've seen a lot).

 

Bivol is more skilled but too small for Opetaia who also has great skills...

 

No. Bivol is very difficult to hit and Opetaia is very predictable and limited in his offense with a loose defense and he tires from what I’ve seen.

 

I would be gobsmacked Opetaia is way bigger. Bivol probably hasn’t been 200lbs a day in his life

 

No not really. It's a fight I've wanted to see for a while, and is a pickem right now.

 

You feel Opetaia is too strong for Beterbiev as well?

 

Bivol "swims" between phantom fights at 168 with Canelo, and 200 with Jai Opetaia.

 

I didnt think okolies would lose anytime soon cause of his infighting,wrestling and good jab,but he lost I didn't think Loma would lose against teo(I still think he won after rewatching it,I wasnt sure the first time I seen it) so anything is possible

 

Yeah I think it would be a fun fight while it lasted but I reckon Opetaia would stop him.

 

No, because Opetaia is overrated.

He didn't look anything special at all against his best opponent in the two Breidis fights. The first fight was a clear draw, Breidis bossed the 2nd half of the fight and gave Opetaia broken bones.

In the 2nd fight Breidis' inactivity and age showed yet still he gave Opetaia trouble.

He's good, but he's definitely not as good as some people have been claiming. If Usyk moves back down, or Beterbiev moves up,.. You'd see.
