    What does Usyk have to do with how special Beterbiev will be after his KO win ?

    I never said anything about Usyks place in P4P. He is special fighter no matter what kind of person he is.

    Unless Beterbiev has significantly faded with age, he will win.

    Bivol is a very good boxer, but he doesn't have the power to keep Beterbiev off him for 12 rounds.

    Head on block,Beterbiev destroys Bivol and stops him ! Hearns Golden Goose Bivol was gifted his belt,has made one single mandatory defence in over 7 years as Champion,his career best win is over a former super lightweight and both Hearn and Bivol never had any intention of fighting Beterbiev until the Saudi offer came along backed them into a corner and they could not refuse it ! Bivol is about to find out what it’s like in with a LHW Champion for the first time in his career ! Hearn and Bivol without a doubt have tried to age Beterbiev out,hopefully Beterbiev has not become an old man over night with his injuries and he performs like I expect him to .

    Great fight. Beterbiev is no spring chicken but he has low miles and is still fighting great. He beats any LH not named Bivol. Canelo is watching this one as he is hoping to never face Bivol again. He took a thoroughbred boxing lesson in the first match and I think Bivol takes the crooked judges out of the mix if they meet again and sparks Ginger’s ass in the rematch.

    Bivol wins it with his movement and boxing IQ. AB is still dangerous and Bivol is going to have to be at the top of his game, but when has he ever not been at the top of his game. Two professionals, I suspect a solid entertaining fight with Bivol winning by UD. Hope Beterbiev isn’t allowed to hit Bivol on the back of the head as he is prone to do. If it’s a clean fight, it’s a win for Bivol. Still a close competitive fight until AB gasses in later rounds.

    Only special fighters are able to beat Canelo doe!! Beterbiev is still in his prime but Bivol will give him dat work doe.




    Beterbiev KOing Bivol at 40 will be one of the most impressive feats in boxing history. Whether the many will admit it or not. Lol I hope he does it.

    Artur is nearly 40 against a prime Bivol for that reason I am going for Bivol a very close fight though..

    Clenelo will look at this fight and be glad he cherrypicked(gone wrong obv) Bivol and ducked Beterbiev.

    Bivol doesn't sit there and get hit very often, and if he does, it seems like he has a decent chin.

    Beterbiev on the other hand, does get hit a lot - even in his recent fights, Bivol should be able to score well with those openings.

    Bivol isn't going for the knockout, Beterbiev is - I think that makes him more vulnerable.

    If Beterbiev is 80% of the Smith fight he stops Bivol
    Alot of people I understand alot are picking Bivol to outbox him but just remember Canelo got Bivol back to the ropes from round 1
    Beterbiev's round the ear shots and bodyshots will eat him up every time hes on the ropes
    True 50/50 fight but can see Beterbiev getting up from a flash KD or 2 to stop Bivol late

    It is a 50/50 fight. Beterbiev stops Bivol or Bivol wins by the way of masterclass.

    But then he adapted and dominated, frustrated Canelo in a way that only Mayweather done to him.
