    The fight is already late & especially for Beterbiev as he is already up there in age, hope it happens next.

    A great match up of two highly skilled fighters,I just think at some point Beterbiev will stop Bivol,a win in this fight for either fighter makes them Undisputed and arguably top two on lb for lb list . The fight simply has to happen next year hopefully .

    Very true especially about Beterbiev but his last performance against Smith a few months ago shows he’s still rocking it.

    But like you say I hope it happens soon because if it doesn’t happen next year I suspect if and when they eventually meet, it maybe too late for us to see both fighters fighting eachother when both of them are at the very top of their game.

    Boxing fans are arguably more fickle than football fans.

    Beterbiev, but the longer they leave it the more it swings in Bivols favour cause Beterbiev is bound to show his age at some point. It's a credit to Beterbiev how he still looks so prime and beastly as of now

    The way Bivol staggered Zurdo and had him in trouble a few times I wouldn't be surprised if Bivol gets a late KO after picking Beterbiev apart with his 1+2 combo. I look forward to see what the odds will be.

    Gvozdyk? Get some education.

    I’ve got Beterbiev eventually stopping Bivol late in the fight similar to how he beat gvozdyk. I think Beterbiev may retire before this fight happens, he’s getting old and injuries seem to be increasing

    Bivol has every tool in the tool box to beat Beterbiev . But can he carry it out without getting walked down and caught is the question. I'd say Bivol by decision at this point, Bivol appears to be at his peak while Beterbiev is obviously past his peak at his age.

    If Beterbiev beats Bivol at this time - whilsts past his peak - I have him as an ATG at LHW frankly.
