    I'd like to see a second or third gear and sense of exhilaration with Bivol. Breaks a guy down impressively but seems to settle in and get a bit predictable in last couple. Alvarez knows he belongs now and has some serious tools and focus. If Stevenson loses and think he will I can see him calling it a day.

    Bivol is kind of like caught in the middle of spectrum between What kovalev was and what beterbiev is. He doesn't have Kovalev's ferver / ruthlessness. But he doesn't appear to have beterbiev's wandering indifference/complacency. I'm sure he could probably get mean late if someone drove him to it and was fading. Hes just going to be very controlled unless there's a lot of blood in the water.
    They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.

    At the moment it's Alvarez for me, but if Gvozdyk is impressive this weekend he could take over.

    I think Bivol, but we don’t really know unless he fights Alvarez or beterbiev. Not up on Gvoz to be honest, will have to see how he does against Stevenson, who I think looks half done.
