    Fans get the fight that they want, Bivol vs Beterbiev for WBA, WBC, IBF, WBO, Lineal and Ring Magazine glory..

    or

    Beterbiev does not face Bivol (Hearn/Arum ego and boxing politics ruining the fight ala Kovalev vs Stevenson or Beterbiev struggles to make 175lbs for example ) moves up to Cruiserweight instead.

    Now that Usyk is gone Beterbiev will slaughter everyone at Cruiserweight.

    He'll feast on Okolie, destroy Opetaia, and become undisputed

    Arum will not let Bivol-Beterbiev happen.

    Hope I am wrong.

    Beterbiev isn't moving up. Too old.

    Let's see how it pans out first

    If within 12 months or September 2023 he has not faced Bivol for undisputed 175lbs then he should just say **** it and move up. Problem is he will be 38 going on 39 by then.

    He should use the next 12-15 months to make as much money as possible in the meanwhile

    Yarde in UK = career high payday

    Zurdo = very good payday if Zurdo does not get Bivol

    Bivol faces Buatsi and then Canelo and finally we get 175lbs showdown hopefully
