    Can the Monster walk down the Iceman?

    Bivol dissects him.

    The thing about DB though, is that he doesn't stop pressing the fight and he can make adjustments. That said I'd slightly favor Bivol but you can't count out El Monstro.

    Boo Boo had a lot of success in the fight but couldn't stand up to The Monster's power. Benavidez would have a much harder time hitting or hurting Bivol. I can see Bivol taking a hard fought but wide decision.

    The best guy in the sport at turning opponents vs a guy that gets turned on command. That's a hard one.

    Bivol could reign supreme in 2 divsions.

    Benavidez is bigger and stronger. And he will be even stronger at 175.

    Benavidez knocks out Bivol, in my opinion.

    Love DB but he’s not ready for that, I don’t think he’s ready for Canelo, damn sure not ready for Bivol.

    Agree you aren’t steam rolling Bivol, he may lose but it won’t be like this.

    I believe Benavidez when he says he's handled him easily in sparring.

    People nees to start understanding that David is a special fighter.
