I've still yet to see what you guys see in Bivol, he's a very good boxer but there's no frills. Beterbiev by KO. I see how close a shot to **** Pascal got to Bivol at times. I'm sure Beterbiev does that in spades. I don't believe Bivol can keep him off for 12.
Artur by a late stoppage after an accumulation of atomic shots. Bivol would make a good account of himself though.
What do people see in beter? A guy that has been dropped multiple times and has only fought C level fighters. Do people not realize how good the K.O win over barrera is?
He was dropped once by Callum Johnson, perhaps the heaviest handed Light Heavyweight the UK has to offer, who's blasted a shared opponent out of the ring whereas Buatsi went the distance, and there's evidence Buatsi hits harder than Yarde. I thought so highly of Johnson I picked him to win by KO. So no big deal there. The KD against Page was not even remotely legit.
Very hard to predict fight, but I'm leaning towards Bivol by close decision. It's very possible Artur knocks him the F out though.
