Yeah I favor Beterbiev he is better all around. There is a reason Bivol waited for him to be 40 which is the only reason this is seen as a 50/50 now.
I agree with this, but I think it might be both. If bivol has kept him off and boxed and moved and taken a good portion of the early rounds, then we may see a different Beterbiev that may try force the issue. If this happens then this could be a fight for the ages. I have been saying bivol since the off which pretty much means that Beterbiev will win. I haven’t correctly predicted a fight since Crawford Spence hahaha
I think LHW is one of the few divisions where everyone in the top 10 has the ability to really sting everyone else.
Fouts is a boxing trainer who was trained to box by a good trainer and has years of sparring under his belt, stay in your lane.
This will probably be a curbstomp in Beterbievs favor. The guy simply hits too hard, is accurate and excels very well at hunting people down who try to run from him. On top of that when you hurt him he just goes into overdrive.
Of course Bivol can hurt Beterbiev, his ko record isn’t great because he doesn’t really try to stop guys. He’s a bit safety first. He really could have stopped Canelo if he wanted imo. He was stinging him pretty bad and he wasn’t throwing 100% power. Canelo actually looked timid when he was getting hit. I love Beterbiev and will be rooting for him, I just think Bivol might be too slick. Hope I am wrong.
