    Oh... I fully expect him to.:lol: While I agree with your assessment to a point, I think it's happening a little too frequently to be a coincidence or accidents. But yeah, B-Hop and Ward are just goddamn shameful.:lol:

    We will see after the Kovalev vs Ward debacle its hard to even bother. I have no dog in the bivol fight, can make strong cases for both to win.

    I have a dog in the fight, but yeah... while I think Bivol beats him, both guys have a pathway to victory here. It all depends on how well Bivol can take a shot.

    I think Bivol can take a shot. This can go 12, but beterbievs will. If Bivol brutalised canelo and ramirez like he coould of id rethink. Bivols killer instinct isnt strong.

    I think Bivol has dog in him, he just needs someone to bring it out. His power is a little better than people give him credit for he just doesn't like overcommitting when he can play it safe and win wide.... clearly it was enough to keep Canelo and Ramirez, who both have great chins honest. Hopefully it'll be enough to give Beterbiev pause as well. But if it doesn't, Bivol's punches I think will become a little more spiteful.

    True enough. He could have easily of stopped ramirez though, at those fights he could of got robbed he played it safe to get the win, but putting on serious hurt is a totally different thing. Does he relish in it lol.

    I have a feeling, after Beterbiev pours on the pressure for a few rounds, Bivol will hate his guts so much, he'll become a full-fledged sadist.:sisi1

    Bivol has not had a KO for 5 years now. I think he comfortably outboxes Beterbiev right up until he starts getting tagged to the body and then he slows down.

    He'll also have to be aware of being against the ropes, corner or Beterbiev fighting backwards. All of which can happen within seconds.

    Beterbiev has more varieties of attack than Bivol.

    If it is centre of the ring, Bivol UD.

    Boxing is not tiddlywinks so why complain about dirty tactics? The way to deal with someone who employs dirty tactics like a Ricky Hatton is show that fighter you have better tricks in the darker arts yourself like Floyd shouted Hatton. It was so ridiculous to hear Hatton complaining about the rough stuff Floyd gave him.

    I remember people were saying, that Gvodzyk will school Beterbiev 12-0 and it would be as Usyk vs Gassiev, but he broke Gvodzyk, as he broke any and every boxer.

    Bivol is cold, but he have same big brother little brother attitude, as Gvozdyk had.

    I don't think Bivol can handle pressure for 12 rounds, with super power punches and tactics, that Beterbiev have.


    Recently Bivols trainer said some nasty and very odd comments on Beterbievs amateur career. I have never seen soviet trainer trash talk like that, ever.
