    Richards is a good fighter a talent he needs a little more speed....Bivol looked OK the matchup was good for him Richards chin and gameness prevented the stoppage

    I had Richards winning 4 rounds. That's more rounds I've seen Bivol lose in his last half dozen fights combined.

    Fair play to Richards, I thought this was going to be uncompetitive but Richards proved to be Bivols toughest fight to date. Extremely inpressive considering he proved a tougher fight than Smith or Pascal.

    Well. What did you expect? A lot of those rounds were close and Richards is a UK guy fighting in the UK.

    If you think Bivol dominated 10 or 11 rounds then you clearly can't score a fight properly. At least 4 or 5 rounds were REALLY close. And we all know those UK judges love to give close rounds to the home fighter.

    If Canelo was watching this, I think he will fancy Bivol for next year.

    Fair score cards imo. Richards will come away from this stronger. He put up a great fight and should of gained loads more fans from that performance, great boxing from both men.

    These scores couldn't have been more random....a 115-113 and 115-114.
    Must have been even rounds scored.
