Unless Artur gets the KO, I smell a trilogy.

if it is a knock down drag out they will be back for thirds.................

I hear you ... but I had Bivol a clear winner in the first fight and so did many other observers. I know you are No1 Beterbiev supporter but I cannot see that it is a given how the rematch will pan out. I can see a number of scenarios playing out.

I never said it was a given, and I always praised Bivol for his skills and Boxing 101 technique... I just don't see it happening for him any more than the first fight (which a majority of fans and/or Boxing commentators gave to Beterbiev on the spot or after watching it again)... Was a first for me to see Bivol on the back foot for most of the fight... He has to change his game plan 180* to expect something different, while Artur just has to be more of what he already is... Of course it's Boxing... So, you know, stuff can happen...

Not a given, just Darwinism at play ...


Edit: I'm from Montreal, been following the rise of that special fighter from his very beginnings... How can you not be a fan ...

I am a fan ... but I thought he lost the first fight. We will agree to disagree.

The Fact that both Bivol and Beterbiev are not much men of words, but manifest in there fists makes their fight that much more interesting. They don’t give the media, the promoters, the hype people much to talk about. That’s a great thing. It would be truly wonderful if all fighters were that good and there were a lot of of them

I can see a 10th round Ko
A repeat ( which should of been the first one ) of the Gvodzyk fight

It may very well be. Was kind of looking like that's how it would end before Bivol got his second wind.

His comment cements my thinking , he says Bivol was lucky to not be ko’d
Artur coming with a vengeance and the goal this time will be to khtfo

Use an uppercut. That should be enough
