    Could Jim defeat the aging Artur that Bivol managed to beat?

    No. Beterbiev would beat him under these rules.

    But chasing Bivol took a LOT out of Artur in those middle rounds in the rematch and Corbett is infamous for spending entire running and clinching without engaging like in the Sullivan fight.

    Frankly I think a fight to the finish would be a forgone conclusion in Jim's favour but a 12 rounder would be much more interesting due to the sheer gap in their offensive ability.

    Beterbiev would destroy any version of Corbett under any ruleset we have seen.

    I would say the same about Canelo, Froch, Calzaghe... hell, even Jeff Lacy.

    Let's be honest: Beterbiev would brutalize him.
