Bivol had back surgery

What part?... like a vertebrae, or....

SPINAL!

 

Beterbitchass fanboys are gonna say Bivol purposely broke his own back to duck the man he already fought twice and beat.

 

This was just minor elective surgery he decided to do while he was on vacation. Don't pretend its the reason he is not fighting anyone.

 

That sucks. He's one of my favorite current boxers to watch. Hopefully he recovers well and can still have a few more good years left.

 

Bivol has been injured for 10 years but only decides to get an operation the week where criticism against him intensifies?

Hmmm no suspicious at all(!)

Secondly, why did he ENTER into rematch talks for a trilogy fight to be held in Russia when he was injured? Why not disclose it and then resume talks later. Instead he ghosted at negotiation table.

Thirdly, he said he was injured months ago, why did he just have surgery NOW? Was he waiting for an NHS appointment or something? Can he not afford to go private like other millionaire athletes? Why didn't he do this BEFORE?

Finally, why wasn't Turki told about this? Why weren't belt organisations told about this? They would have given him an exemption.
Why did he get stripped AND drop a belt AND avoid Benavidez, who was his WBC mandatory?
Why go through all that only to sideline yourself in the end with no money and no opponent?

Sounds like he ran out of excuses and went for the sympathy angle so he can juice off-contract and delay his obligations to Beterbiev, Benavidez and Turki.

None of it adds up.

 

He is compromised
It’s the beginning of the end for the man
“Spinal” is at the core of everything.

 

Who cares he's falling out of prime anyway and nobody else to fight really.
Maybe we can watch him slap Canelo's ugly face off again should he beat Crawfish. But that's all she wrote.

*This is a paid post by Kate Bivol*

 

He was going to decline soon anyways. He was 34 in his last fight. We've seen the best from Bivol. Father time is undefeated.

 

Still beat Canelo , Beterbiev & Zurdo. Excellent career.

 

does a guy who walks around at like 190 count as a lighter weight?

 

Almost everyone is lighter than someone, man.
