    Although he didn't officially get the win against Beterbiev I would also consider this a masterful showing from Bivol. If he fights with more spite and aggression much like he did against Ramirez I think he’ll have a much better chance at beating Beterbiev in the rematch.

    If he's more aggressive and open up more he can be clipped. Sometimes he was winning the exchanges but one clean punch from Beterbiev made him back up.

    Probably Bivols best performance to date. Both guys put on a great show but it was Bivol who stole the night in the end.

    Beterbiev, Canelo, Zurdo. Who has 3 better recent wins? IMO Bivol is interchangeable with Usyk & Inoue now for top 3 depending on your preference. I Can't rank Crawford over him.. compare their recent careers.. its not even close.. plus Crawford is a massive weight grifter.
