    Seriously nice guy. One of the friendliest fighters around. Would definitely hangout with this guy. Can't wait for the fight. Will be rooting for Beterbiev.

    No offence mate but if he is one of the friendliest fighters around why is he so pally with Kadyrov? Surely one of the nicest guys in boxing would steer well clear of an avowed misogynist and homophobe?

    You can't exactly say no to Kadyrov when you're from those areas. I mean, look at what happened to Fedor's daughter.

    Sorry but this really made me laugh, "if he's so friendly, why is he so friendly with THIS guy?" Because he's... Friendly?

    In seriousness though I get the point you're making, although I won't judge an eastern fighter on western morality, especially given that in a lot of eastern countries that don't celebrate gayness the way we do in the west, they find our treatment of the elderly (who many easterners revere for their wisdom and longevity) absolutely abhorrent and could make a similar argument about any "friendly" westerner, "oh yeah? Well if they're so friendly, why do they treat their elderly like a burden? Surely a nice person would prioritise the needs of the elderly and infirm?"

    Every society and culture has groups it treats better than others, and to be entirely honest the amount of misandry I deal with in my daily life that isn't seen as a problem makes me more indifferent to misogyny, I wouldn't say it excludes me from being a friendly person automatically

    Unless it's before 6am and I haven't had coffee, then I'm absolutely not friendly

    Bro.

    Let's see you go to Chechnya and give Kadyrov the cold shoulder.

    Great post, politics is the domain of cowards and tyrants who seek vain glory and personal gain at the expense and sacrifice of others.

    Boxing is mastery of body and mind, the sacrifice of oneself for the chasing of ultimate glory through honorable mortal combat with an equal opponent.

    If they ever remaster the Rocky movies ,that second paragraph should appear on screen just before the theme music kicks in and the name starts scrolling across the screen, bravo

    Indeed very friendly. He's beating and injuring people up to get rich. What kind of friendliness is that ?

    Why is Jordan Peterson friends with a genocidal maniac like Netanyahu?

    'misogynist and homophobe'. These 'crimes' against liberalism are apparently the worst things about that chechen, lol.
    You could tell that thought came straight from the UK brainwashing system.
    In that case every European until the 1960s was also a sadistic criminal. I'm sure that will be in the textbooks soon though.

    Raw power alone is not enough to defeat a moving target. Gvozdyk's primary defensive strategy was to stay in close-quarters combat with Beterbiev and move his head down. Bivol will not stay in range. Superior speed, footwork, and ring IQ. I expect Bivol to win.
