I've watched it back twice and had Bivol 115-113 then Beterbiev 115-113. Had a draw on the night and think it would have been the fairest score and decision
Beterbiev 116-112 for me. I was rooting for Bivol but he just couldn't capitalise on the openings that he created in the first couple rounds.
Beterbiev brutalized and bullied Bivol. I think Beterbiev won by 116 - 112 as well. I noticed something, Bivol can't fight in close distance. He has to be arm length away from his opponent to throw his combinations. Beterbiev on the other hand is a master of close encounters and he can also fight very well keeping his distance. Beterbiev is the full package.
The rematch will be the same except I think Bivol will run more, get tired quicker and ultimately get stopped late.
