    Good. Bivol needs fights like this if he is to be considered the LHW GOAT one day.

    Beterbiev will be the next target. He'll cause the upset and become undisputed. They don't believe in him, but I've always believed in Bivol

    Bivol will retire as one of the best LHWs in history with grandmaster levels of ring IQ

    Ramirez is the better fight and hopefully it happens next with pascal-Buatsi as the co main!

    Zurdo would be a good scalp for Bivol.

    Weird, of all the fights for the WBA to force. they could have picked any of the regular titlist to merge the titles like they said they were going to do 4+ years ago. Maybe they are trying to deal with Zurdos "Mando Status" so they can justify making another bout next year to reintroduce the regular title to a division thats managed to rid itself of it.

    Good, Beterbiev is fighting in the UK, so undisputed should happen early next year

    Of course, Zurdo should fight Bivol considering that he is better than Buatsi...

    I like Buatsi but Zurdo is a much, much better fight.

    This will be a competitive fight.

    It's much more interesting than a mismatch like Bivol vs Buatsi.

    I rate him in the top 4 at 175. Easily.

    Buatsi would get blown out by Bivol. He is not on that level, nor does he have the skill to ascend to it. Zurdo is a far better fight.
