    You made me look up the word Numpty. That led to Scotish twitter which led to reading the first chapter of Harry Potter in Scotish. (The Laddie Wah Lived)

    I now have a headache.

    I admit I have never seen Zurdo fight.

    Three years later, no Beterbiev fight and no Zurdo fight.

    Maybe he'll fight Jermall Charlo.

    They are just excuses.. pathetic excuses that have prevented the fans from watching the best LHWs fight each other.

    FFS Kovalev, Bivol, and Beterbiev were all Champions between 2017-2020, and Bivol and Beterbiev between 2017-2022.

    Bivol fights a SMW in Canelo and now wants to fight another low tier LHW? Its getting pathetic.

    He's a textbook fighter. Very solid skills, will beat most B levels, some A levels.

    I think he handles Bivol better than he would Beterbiev.

    Bivol has been calling him out for some time. The time to fight is now, not later.

    Bivol already didn't fight Beterbiev when he was more primed, now he's going to avoid Zurdo?

    Weird choice by Bivol. Doesn't make sense to avoid Zurdo. If he's no good, he'd be taking care of a no-risk mandatory and possibly making good money. Zurdo should be far easier to market than this other guy. Play the angle that Zurdo is fighting for Mexico's honor.

    Then he should fulfill his mandatory if it's that easy

    I never understand why fans make excuses for fighters avoiding their obligations.

    Well Ramirez had a much easier fight against Barrera who outboxed Smith.

    Maybe Ramirez is infact better.

    Bivol doesn't want the Beterbiev smoke and vice versa. They've had more than 5 years to fight.

    He should prove it then instead of risking getting stripped for fighting a lesser fighter.

    You mean most avoided and feared.
