    we tend to talk about Loma or Canelo or Crawford

    I always feel like Bivol gets the short end of the stick, I mean the man completely dominated world class opposition like it was nothing Pascal, Joe Smith, Barrera

    He's one of the most complete fighters today, he's up there with the Lomas and the Crawfords

    He's far more skilled than Canelo and Crawford. His resume is slowly getting better

    Best at LHW imo, looks harder to beat than Beterbiev and has a more impressive resume. Top ten p4p for me.

    Despite being the lower ranked fighter, I believe he'd school and shut out Beterbiev.

    He just doesn't have the resume to back up his skills.

    Bivol needs to fight Beterbiev, Ramirez or Kovalev to get recognition. Outside his weight class Canelo, Smith and Saunders are good names. He's fought quality opponents but needs the elite.

    Inactivity. Out of sight out of mind. Hard to talk about someone that don’t fight.

    Oh hell naw!
    He doesn´t do actually that much in the ring. In terms of skills, Canelo and Bud do a hell of a lot more than Bivol.

    Bud showed skills in hometown referage vs Mean Machine.
    Bud is hometown fighter because he did not get a count when went down in fight vs Machine.
    Because he was hometown A side figthter!
    Lauhable !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:D

    Now, yeah, Terence even likes me a lot and he is skilled and definitetlely A+++ level fighter.
    He also defeated Machine, clearly.

    Still Terence is hometown fighter.
    Until someone will switch him out in distance. It will happen.

    Because most of us would rather rip out our pubic hairs one at a time with a pair of tweezers than watch him fight.
