Both are under appreciated. Just 2 fights ago Bivol was a huge underdog against Canelo. Dude won 10 maybe 11 rounds off the top PFP fighter in the world like it was a walk in the park. Although I want to see them fight, I'd hate to see either man lose.
Of course he does, that's usually what happens when you club your opponent with a seemingly non stop barrage of rabbit punches. He's damn lucky he hasn't killed someone with that yet.
Rightfully said & Even more reason we needed this years back, can't stand guys finally fighting when it favors one fighter way more only too have so called fans **** on the losing fighter no matter the circumstances of how the result lead there.
I’m amazed no one talks about the dangerous and illegal punches Beterbiev landed behind the head on Gvoz. I like Bivol against AB but if he gets hit in the back of the head, all bets are off.
Something seriously needs to be down about that. It’s one thing to be a dirty fighter, but to purposely target the back of the head is just a straight up pos move. That Smith Jr ko was ban worthy.
Beterbiev is going to 39 in 6 months, every week this fight doesnt happen is another tick on the clock in the Bivol direction.
