    Eddie just put the Hearn curse on him.

    You've got Badou Jack who fought at 160? as one of our crusierweight champs ffs.....at 40 years old. The division is dead.

    Offer Bivol big money to step up, he'll give him a better fight than any of the other champs.

    Hearn is just a sleaze ball. Throwing shade at Aussie fans

    The only fighter out there that can beat him is Lawrence Okolie via knotted up strangulation

    Absolute demolition job by Opetaia.

    Thompson about as good against a southpaw as Joe Joyce.

    Bellew making excuses for Thompson "six levels" the guy just sucks. Now the Brits are trying to shine a turd by sucking up to Thompson. Opetaia is the champ who destroyed Thompson but all they can do is make excuses for Thompson, another British hype job.

    I'm watching the highlights and I like how Opetaia briefly switched stance to land a powerful left, followed up by a right hand that crumbled Thompson.

    I'd love to see Opetaia vs Goulamirian next, Goulamirian has the edge in size and physical strength but Opetaia is more technical, sharper and accurate.

    I'd slightly favor Opetaia but it would be a war of attrition imo

    I watched a bunch of his interviews from this week and he was talking like he was the second coming. There's a big difference between self-belief and pure delusion

    Bivol can't even beat Beterbiev. AB vs Operaia may be a fight on the horizon if Bivol grows some balls and allows Beterbiev to unify. Unfortunately he is getting old.

    Yeah I watched them too! He is going to have a hell of a fall internally from that pedestal he built for himself after his performance tonight.

    It was comic reel bad.
