    Clean effective punching? You've got to be kidding me.

    Like every other honest scorer. A draw at best for Beterbiev.

    You don't score for unlanded punches though. And you can't minus his "effective aggression" score for unlanded punch stats. You could squeeze in an argument about Bivol's defense, but really you're scoring on the defense you see Bivol do, not their comparative punch stats (I did score this fight for Bivol though).

    I expect your idea will be quickly implemented just soon as the technology is perfected.

    You might want to try patenting that concept.

    Bivol might’ve been. Suspicious second wind until he faded halfway through round eleven.

    I suppose Bivol was marked up by some other means?

    Clowned him defensively yet his face looks like hamburger hill. Don't compare Bivol to Usyk who actually stands his ground and takes it to his opponents

    Eddie is crying. 116-112 lot of people are complaining about as it discredits Bivol. OML

    To be honest after reflecting on this flight after a couple of minutes:
    Bivol boxing good but went to much backwards. Beterbiev looked old but his power and experience helped him
    Either way I think a draw was fair.
    Also I think there is too much focus on the scorecard. In the end it was a majority decision for the fighter pressing and being agressive.

    I thought it would be more lopsided, but Beterbiev didn't look as good as I thought he would. I'm a bit buzzed and enjoying the moment. Don't come come at me like that. I like you and don't want to start a flame war here. Beterbiev still won at least 8 rounds on my card. It was competitive but clear. Bivol was too negative to separate himself.
