I agree with Atlas and he picked Bivol to win before the fight. Could have gone either way but I thought Beterbiev deserved to win more.
He was wrong though in his prediction do you agree? Now, here's where forum rules affect the mind... One should ignore the noise and understand fact, then, implement that fact and push that new understanding into physical reality. Isn't that what we're all trying to do?
I like atlas but thats not how you score fights do you? beterbiev came on a little bit stronger late in the rounds but bivol still racked up a few more rounds in his favour in my view. Simply because beterbiev finally found something in the championship rounds doesnt undo bivols earlier work No? you have to see the whole picture regardless. Thats like saying we give the fight to beterbiev because if the fight would have been 13 rounds he would have stopped bivol.
If Beterbiev won the last 3 rounds which he dominated, how did Bivol win? The 1st 9 rounds were not 7-2 ffs, was competitive as hell, Bivol just about earned a draw at best realistically
