    Beterbiev and this is the fight to make, Bivol is great but his Canelo win does not put him ahead of Beterbiev.

    Bivol is good but I rate Gvozdyk higher prime for prime and Biev got to him. Despite his mileage he hasn't lost a beat either. He finds Bivol by the 7th IMO

    Originally I thought this could be close, now I think Bivol is bear hunting with a BB gun in a fight with Beterbiev. That man is a Beast

    Bivol by Decision. He would tame "the Beast"!

    AB but Bivol would put up a way better fighter than Smith.

    Beterbiev’s legs looked old tonight, but Smith kept making the same mistake over and over again, so Beterbiev being a seasoned vet took full advantage and finished it quick.

    As for a Bivol I don’t see Beterbiev at his age having an easy time with Bivol’s mobility, timing, and handspeed. Bivol also won’t be as predictable as Smith.

    Two good guys with contrasting styles, but in the one, the bull tames the matador.

    Berberbiev in 6.

    Beterbiev is a nightmare monster. A Titanic beast of a man, but that only makes me want to see the fight more. He will go into second gear and use his ice cold footwork, advanced boxing IQ and supreme agility to win

    Bivol will prove you all wrong !!

    He decisions Artur in the fight of his life

    People still underestimate Beterbiev’s skills. I think he can match Bivol’s ring IQ. He’s a smart fighter himself and I think he has what it takes to break Bivol in the late rounds.

    Let's not get too far people, Smith got KOd in 4 by a clubfighter. There are levels to this sport. Bivol wins easy. Vlasov just beat JSJ and then lost to a journeyman in his next fight. Come on, this win is being way overrated by people who talk about boxing more than they watch it.
