    Good fight and easy to make

    Is Roy still training Chilemba ?

    Whats Joe Smith up to these days ? I'm sure he'd take this title shot and make it a fun fight

    HBO better pit the winner up next. It's a mystery as to why they haven't already made Kovalev vs Bivol.

    Brilliant matchmaking. Zero percent chance of Bivol losing but Chilemba is a respected name and makes for a nice cherry on top of his résumé, paving the way for a mega fight.

    Funny thing is, I had Chilemba beating Alvarez, so who's fighting the better opponent?

    Awful fight. I don't see how a fight where one side has 0 % chance to win can be called a good fight

    Chilemba is a top 15 light heavyweight at worst, probably inside 10. And you're complaining? Just goes to show how good Bivol is, that even a longtime respected top contender in his division is perceived as hopelessly mismatched against him. :thumbsup:

    It would mean a lot more had Chilemba not been hammered by The Nail. Still not a bad point of comparison between the three top EE's at LH.

    The victory is still a meaningful one even post-Gvozdyk, unless you subscribe to either the notion that Chilemba overnight became shot before that match (which I don't) or that Gvozdyk in one evening ruined him (which remains to be seen IMO).

    Diminished no doubt from what it would have meant if Bivol happened to have beaten Gvozdyk to getting him in the ring & stopped him first, but if we see the same old Chilemba this is still a creditable scalp (and honestly one could argue will serve as Bivol's greatest to date, contingent upon your view of Barrera...at worst, a close 2nd, in any event)

    And if anyone truly believes that Mike Lee or Joe Fournier is a better light heavyweight than Isaac Chilemba, please save me the bother of lifetime banning you and just see yourself out & forget your password. :thumbsup:
