    I don't think Beterbiev has slipped. I know Bivol is a lot different than this, but I like Beterbiev against him.

    Good showing from Beterbiev. Took his time and chopped Smith down, very impressive performance overall. Now is the time for Beterbiev and Bivol to make the fight happen. After what he’s shown he still has a lot left and could very well give Bivol absolute hell.

    The light heavyweight division is Beter and Bivol.
    The rest of the division is garbage

    Since We Have Yet to Witness an Opponent Soooo Much as Hit Morrell BACK, Any Prognostications In His Favor Are Merely HUNCHES @ This Point...

    Rather see morrell against the best at 168. Not really interested in beterbiev against anyone other than bivol.

    Bivol is a fuckin pussy weight bully. He's been ducking beter. He would rather fight midget Canelo for an easy pay check.

    Do you think Ward retired to avoid Beterbiev? Beterbiev won his belt 5 months later so he was right there. Ward might not have fancied the fight.

    I hate Ward, like really despise Ward, but you're really reaching. Beterbiev was a nobody at the time. He wasn't one of the more feared fighters in the sport at the time - Kov was.

    If Ward wasnt scared of Kov, why would he be scared of a green Beterbiev who had beaten no one at the time?

    Again, I can't stand Ward, and I'll bash him whenever it's justified, but to suggest he ducked Beter is the reach of the century.

    Hell, even today Beterbiev hasn't really beaten anybody bar Gvozdyk. For all the acclaims he gets, he has an extremely poor resume

    Jajaja not even. I just think that Bivol knows there's more money with the Canelo rematch and it's an easier fight. That's why he's willing to move down to 168 to fight Canelo and has been avoiding Beter like the plague.

    He'd have a better chance than a moving target in Bivol. Styles make fights. Btw happy MLK day. :Flip:

    Beterbiev is really strong with solid technique, however I cannot say he gives me the ''Wow'' factor when I see him fight (and obviously not outside the ring), even though his effortless ko streaks over solid opponents is impressive. He has grown on me in recent years bu it's still hard to say how good he really is. More of an deluxe can crusher or p4per??? The jury is still out

    Canelo thought he could pick up another easy title in a new division. Bivol beat him into reality...now he's the one ducking Bivol..
    :eek:
