    Buatsi would be a decent opponent for Bivol while he waits for the Beterbiev fight to finally happen.

    Who wins?

    Dmitry Bivol dominates him from bell to bell, by as usual... never leaving first gear.

    Yes this. Just your typical 120-108 Bivol victory if they ever fought.

    Buatsi by DQ after the ref disqualifies Bivol for punching him in the face.

    Buatsi would win at most two rounds...

    Buatsi is awful. He has no chance.

    I don't want to see Bivol fight anyone else apart from Beterbiev/Smith winner.

    Bivol would be very small at CW imo.

    He looks small at LHW even rehydrated.

    Usyk would probably be around 210lbs on the night.

    Why would uysk lose 20lbs to fight Bivol?

    I think Buatsi may have missed his chance. He's good but Eddie making him fight endless tuneups hasn't really helped his career and now he has gone to Sky. I recall Eddie saying he would have no problem putting Buatsi in there with Kovalev just after Kovalev KO'd Yarde. That was close to 5 years ago.

    Which would of been a bad idea. Buatsi is no better than Yarde.

    Yeah I agree bad idea but I think Buatsi up to that point may have been facing marginally better opposition than Yarde who was always fighting late replacement nobodies before Kovalev. Buatsi at least considered a prospect at that point was being put in with fighters that would at least help him get used to 6, 8, 10 rounders.
