    I think it was a draw but if I had to pick I’d pick Bivol since he landed the cleaner shots but last 3 rounds were poor from him

    Bivol did way too much running, was very frustrating to watch.

    115-113 Artur was my scorecard, finally the judges don't have dog**** scoring

    Anyone saying it's a robbery needs to rewatch it without DAZN's garbage commentary, and not give Bivol credit for punches that landed on AB's gloves

    The fight was just ok, really expected more from Beterbiev though tbh.

    BS decision .. Bivol schooled him for majority of the fight!

    Anyone who is calling a robbery should get a 3 month ban. You could have scored that anywhere from 7-5 Bivol to 7-5 Beterbiev and still been on the money. There was no robbery here. I scored it 6-6 and thought that Bivol deserved to edge it but I cant argue with 7-5 Beterbiev either. It really was that close for most rounds

    I just don't think he has great shot placement, with his power he should have mixed it up more, down to the body, break him apart, then get the knockout.

    Bovol simply wasn't busy enough. Rounds 1-4ish were great. After that, dare I say, he ran.

    Its a lucky dip what sort of judges you get so you need to show some aggression, these judges clearly rate who presses the fight.

    Beterbiev said his performance was not good. His corner said he needed a KO. They saw the same fight.

    Close fight. Should have been Bivol but I wouldn't say robbery either.

    I dont know why people are complaining. It was a close fight, close cards.
