Bivol-Beterbiev III delayed to 2026

I'd prefer seeing Beterbiev vs Benavidez to Bivol vs Benavidez.

 

I like how people are acting like Arthur had no chance. Dude can knock anyone out.

 

Agree

It's more fan friendly and will be a war while it lasts. I see Beterbiev steamrolling him very early

 

Why the hell FFS can't these guys fight more than once a year?

 

Probably going to fight in between their third fight.

 

Would rather see both of these guys fight different opponents in all honesty. Not too excited seeing a third fight right after Bivol avenged his only defeat. Beterbiev is already 40 but still good enough to be competitive with anyone. Bivol and Beterbiev facing either Benavidez or the winner of Morrell/Khutaev would be ideal for both guys.

 

Yes, he has a chance. Puncher's chance. That's all.

 

You’re an idiot the second fight was super competitive. Artur swung hard and missed a lot of big shots that could have easily landed on a different day that gassed him out.

 

He lost the first fight, he lost the second fight.

He could have landed. Yes, that's what's called a puncher's chance. No way in hell is beterbiev going to outbox bivol, even a blind man like you should be able to see it. Not even using double the amount of peds many people suspect he's already using.

 

It’s not just a punchers chance, I’m not saying those big shots would have stopped Bivol but they would have scored points. When big shots whiff it saps a lot of energy. You saying he only has a punchers chance shows me you don’t know squat about boxing.

 

Yes, you made a great point, had he connected the punches he missed he would have won. LOL, great job, captain obvious.

 

You are an absolute moron.

 

What happened to that contract eddie? It seems to have magically vanished when David is out of the picture. I knew it was duck already but now its completely official. Say all you want but these guys don't want to get into the ring with Benavidez.

David didn't finalize the yarde fight until 2 days ago which means Bivol could have fought him in November. Still plenty of time to have made that fight.

Everyone talks how they would beat David but they won't even get in the ring with him! Quack Quack.

 

Weird that I don't care to see it, but Beterbiev deserves a third and final fight tbh

 

Thats why I'm so annoyed they did the instant rematch. They could have had a gap fight then did the rematch. Beterbiev beating Benavidez and Bivol beating someone else would have just fueled it more. But nooo we have to do the rematch now. Then when Bivol won its 1-1 and you have to do the third one right away because its 1-1. And Beterbievs in his 40s and has limited time. Since hes not the belt holder hes not going to risk the trilogy by fighting someone of value and he sinks two years into this.

I just wish this all went down different.
