Bivol v Beterbiev next!

[Denilson3.0]

Turki boutta convert me to Islam

If he keeps putting on these great fights, I think it's time for us to change from SaddoBoxing to an islamic forum soon just to thank him. I hope they declare jihad against the corrupt boxing orgs like the WBA/WBC/IBF/WBO and all the corrupt boxing promoters

Inshallah !!!!

DEATH TO THE SHIITES !!

Turki is single-handedly saving boxing right now

Trust me - God is real and he's a turkey

As to the Bivol v Beterbiev fight - What's the most fascinating to me in this fight is the extremes of what we have seen before:-

• NO ONE has been able to nullify Beterbiev's offence and ability to cut off the ring
• NO ONE has been able to nullify Bivol's control of range and fight tempo

Something has to give

Whoever wins, people will act like that person winning was obvious from the start and they they are in different leagues.

For Bivol to win he has to be able to not only move fluidly, (as he is known for) he has to have a phenomenal inside game (short hooks, uppercuts, up-hooks, clinch/hit ) and he has to have enough power to (temporarily) stop Beterbiev's forward progress to get his shots off and move out. You don't need an iron chin to beat Beterbiev (as despite his KO record, he's not a "lights out" type puncher) but you have to be A level in most boxing skills and strength.

Beterbiev doesn't merge his defence and offence particularly well; when his opponent throws he simply stands off, waits for them to stop and then continues his onslaught so I see Bivol sustaining his combos to disrupt the flow and rhythm of Beterbiev, forcing him to reset and restart.

He has done it time and time again. Zurdo is a big man with a good chin, but he couldn't keep coming forward because Bivol's combos were forcing him back. Canelo has a good chin, but he too was being forced back. He made Canelo look like a journeyman. Since then notice Ginger has started the "I'll fight who I want, when I want, if I want" approach

Bivol knows exactly what he's getting himself into and he will be prepared for everything.

Both fighters have ice-cold poker faces and very rarely show any kind of frustration / lack of composure in the ring - but I suspect if anyone can bring it out of the other, it's the other..

But I hope Bivol doesn't get robbed on the cards by the biased Saudis who want a Muslim to win.
