I agree with you. If anybody can outbox Beterbiev and avoid being KOd it's Bivol. He is a volume puncher and very calculated boxer. But the problem is that when he gets caught by Beterbiev, his chances of winning significantly drop. The man has KO'd every fighter he's fought.
Salut/HI Willie I would tell you something about yours predictions. Willie, you dream in :"oscanestous-pricartaga-feriwass colors.To me, Bivol 's will have the same result like the 20 fighters who try to win. Artur is the best wrecking ball, may be the best of all . Try to notice the Betwerbiev's look when the fighters are in the middle with the ref before round 1. Bivol gonna look Beterbiev right in the eyes and he will talk to himself : " What the hell do I'm doing here!!! I never see somebody like Artur......he scare the devil and it is a bad thing for Bivol. My prediction Artur Beterbiev will KO bivol before the 7th round....Have a good day From Laval Québec
You know your stuff, even I favour Bivol.. although I use the style of bivol and Soviet, he's like my mentor. Bivol has tremendous skills, he's like Mayweather of that division. He transitions in and out like a teleporting device. Bivol on this one.
HI/Salut...if you ever bet on what you just write......don't go "all in" .I will suggest you to keep a few $$$, we never knows.....I will keep an eye on : theanswer369 and , on June 1st or June 2 so I can tell you that Artur is the goat, bottom line!!! (have a good day.....from Montréal
Keeping him active also implies laziness won't become a part of having place in his daily activities and won't reduce the rate of his work ethic in the ring. Fighters are known to slow down their offensive output in general when they are spending less time in the gym with non related outside influences going on
I think it's a good move hopefully Effie will get him the fights he need to boost his career to the top with the rest of the weather weighs...maybe someone will step up and fight him
Everybody hates on Mexicans I think people get jealous that they have a fan base and other fighters in their home county they don't give a fk about them
I don't think either Bivol or Beterbiev deserve a number one P4P spot because they are not multi-division champs, though Beterbiev may have a case if he kos Bivol due to the fact that no other champ has stopped all of his strong opponents in their prime. The undisputed LHW champ should still be behind Bud, Inoue and Usyk, in my opinion. If Beterbiev kos Usyk in whatever weight class they may agree to fight, after stopping Bivol, then he'll definitely be number one P4P fighter. Or if he beats Opetaia because that's the fight Saudis plan to organize. I can't imagine small Bivol against Opetaia but I can imagine Beterbiev vs Opetaia. But then Artur will have to move up to Cruiserweight and vacate his LHW titles. I totally disagree with your point that Beterbiev will be easier for Benavidez whose style is perfect for Beterbiev who likes come-forward fighters and may struggle with elusive fighters. That was the point made by John Iceman Scully, one of Beterbief's trainers. I am not so sure Benavidez beats Gvozdyk. Benavidez is ideal for Beterbiev to set traps and chop down that tall "tree". On the other hand, as the rumors go, Benavidez dominated Bivol in their sparring.
Benavides had trouble finding Caleb Plant early on in that fight. He eventually broke down Plant. He would have trouble finding Bivol due to his footwork and movement. Beterbiev stylistically is better suited for Benevidez. Two come foward fight for an all out war. Beterbiev's boxing ability is vastly underrated however.
Bivol destroyed nobody... The face of the opponents were fresh. Bivol beat no body. Zurdo has 0 skill. Pascal was washed since his 2 fights against Kovalev and Lyndon Arthur is a weak boxer. Bivol made is reputation against the little 5'6''-5'7'' Canelo.... Beterbiev gave a better lesson of boxing in less than 2 rounds than Bivol in 12 rounds against Joe Smith..... Gvozdyk was better than Bivol and Beterbiev is better now. Beterbiev in 6 rounds and if it's the same Bivol than Lyndon Arthur... Beterbieb in 3 rounds.
