Anyone else disappointed Bivol didn't get the stoppage?

LOL, Duh Man always holdin' deez Kats down!

 

Bivol not a big puncher and pascal has a good chin . Good win , but I think many overrate bivol .

 

I'm not criticizing his opposition, I'm just not overrating it either. Pascal and Sullivan were good fighters 3 years ago, and Chilemba is a solid journeyman...and that's about he size of it.

Let me let you in on a secret Bro., to be a star you have to have one of three qualities.

1. devastating power.

2. overwhelming charisma (good or bad).

3. Insane aggression and fearlessness.

And the guy can't speak English, so #2 ain't an option.

 

They are not Americans. It is just normal that the standard are higher for none American. They to have to perform to a higher level if they want American TV and crowd attention. I am not American but I would definitely have that attitude, specially if the doesn't even speak the home language. Like come on, make at least an effort. If you are just a mercenary who comes and take his paycheck, we will treat you as a mercenary, not like the hometown guy who we are cheering for. And again, I am not from the States.

 

Ma

May's longevity had nothing to do with style or damage taken and everything to do with TRT.

 

Because I don't think he has what it takes at the highest level. He is a great fighter but doesn't do any one thing exceptionally well. He leaves himself open to counters at times. That may be all it takes.

 

he beats alvarez im 100% sure

 

How was Guerreo shot v Floyd?

 

WE should be happy he got a win! Pascal is getting on but he was elite once.

 

I was disappointed at Bivol's approach.
Sometimes these fighters from behind the iron curtain don't seem to realize that in order to make a name for themselves, they need to be exciting and entertaining, too.
Bivol is a good boxer but he took zero risks against Pascal. And i thought Bivol was closing in on top 20....

 

Bivol fought a near flawless fight. That being said he just does not have the explosive power to stop upper level fighters, or apparently upper level has-beens. It takes nothing away from Bivol, though, as his stamina is top level for that division. High punch output, accuracy and stamina. A very good combination.

 

I haven't seen the fight, but up till now he had always performed "better" against common opponents as Kova did, and Pascal had a couple of years extra on the clock.
So I expected him to stop Pascal, but he probably lacks the raw power to do so.

 

He is talking about double standarts.
