Bivol v Beterbiev has to be the best fight in boxing atm. I can't pick a winner. Genuine 50/50 imo.
1.) 10 Oct 2024 06:12:48
If Bivol is sharp with his movement he'll win comfortably, Beterbiev is 39/40, has had a lot of lengthy injury spells and his last injury was a knee injury, which very well could have an effect.
However we have seen Bivol be more static in recent fights, perhaps due to him lacking respect for his recent opponents, but if he doesn't move in this fight, he's getting chinned.
I'm going to pick Bivol only points, with the caveat that Beterbiev may be "stopped" due to injury.

Start of the week I was leaning more towards Bivol on points for the reasons u say mate although then I got thinking about Beterbiev facing the better opposition. Tbh both at times have looked excellent then on other times they have looked ordinary, so couldn't split them. Hope it's a cracker.
Looking forward to Clarke v Wardley II, but don't think it will be as good as the first one.

Dubois was outstanding. His jab was so quick and powerful, he hurt Joshua everytime he landed. I would like to see Joshua walk away now, he's had a good career and don't want to see him become a punch bag.
On a side note, Liam Gallagher hasn't a note in his head. My God he was he was terrible.
1.) 22 Sep 2024 12:56:42
as I said in my post, I think if fury loses to usyk him and AJ will have a mega money fight
or the other possibility could be wilder for AJ lol
one thing I am seeing now which I don't like is a lot of people are still talking more about how AJ, showed courage etc, yes he did but all the talk should be about a brilliant and dominant display by dubois.
i also don;t understand how AJ has rematch clause being the challenger
oh and agree with you on liam gallagher, sounded really bad.
2.) 22 Sep 2024 13:07:47
It's thought that Joshua will active the rematch clause. It was a one-sided fight but Joshua only has himself to blame, moving backwards in a linear fashion with hands low, not keeping the left hand up when throwing the right. So much that he could fix for the rematch.
Plus just before he got KO'd he had Dubois in trouble after landing a massive right hand.
I think the rematch if it happens will be interesting.
3.) 22 Sep 2024 13:30:39
Yeah there are some fights that could be made for him like u say Wilder or maybe even the Whyte rematch but personally I would like to see him walk away.
Joshua is just massive star that he naturally will gather a lot of attention even after a defeat but I agree with you mate all the praise should go to Dubois.
Also don't like the idea of a rematch clause or why Joshua walked to the ring second as the challenger, I assume Dubois would have had to agree to these demands and was compensated for them.
4.) 22 Sep 2024 13:42:04
The way Dubois attacks at times reminds me of a young Mike Tyson, now hear me out lol.
Not saying he has the same defence or skill, technique or footwork as Tyson but just the way Dubois jabs his way into range then let's the hooks go in combinations reminds me abit of Tyson.
5.) 23 Sep 2024 22:20:55
I'd say more like Holyfield than Tyson, though he has much heavier hands than both to be honest.
He also has some pretty bad habits that Holyfield had too, like hitting low and headbutting. There are a couple of instances in the Joshua fight, but credit to Joshua he doesn't cry about it and just gets on with it.
I don't think it would have changed the outcome of the fight, I'm not trying to cope over AJ losing or anything. I've just never been a fan of that kind of Boxing. Unless it's against people who deserve it, like Miller. Lol.
6.) 24 Sep 2024 22:12:24
Agree I can see the similarities with Holyfield.
Aye, Miller and Benn. Lol
21 Sep 2024 22:31:09
Wow what a fight. Joshua showed some guts. Dubois was outstanding. What a KO.
04 Sep 2024 17:22:41
Seen Eddie Hearn and Simon Jordan on talksport debating whether Joshua quit Vs Ruiz in their first fight.
What do yous think on this? I personally wouldn't say he quit but he was definitely looking a way out before he knocked out.
1.) 05 Sep 2024 18:11:09
I put a reply to this on Gmans video about it. I think it's disingenuous to suggest that a man who has been down 4 times and got up each time quit. I also think it's disingenuous or perhaps naive to suggest that he was looking for a way out.
The man was concussed, very clearly, given he was asking questions in the corner like "why do I feel like this? ". When you're severely concussed you don't know anything and taking more and more blows to the head isn't going to clear that up.
I'm absolutely convinced that Joshua would have continued to try and fight if the referee allowed the fight to continue.
2.) 05 Sep 2024 18:54:48
Yeah I agree he might have been concussed mate but I watched it again and the way he spat his gum shield out, was looking away from the ref, not really responding to the ref, imo he was looking a way out.
Yes I agree if the ref had of said box on then Aj would have continued but imo he would have hit the deck again once Ruiz hit him again.
3.) 05 Sep 2024 19:29:32
That's stuff that veteran fighters do when they're trying to buy extra time to recover mate.
Yeah he probably would have gone down again and stayed down, that or been very wobbly when he got back up with the ref waving it off.
4.) 05 Sep 2024 19:56:03
I know what u mean mate about buying time etc but imo he wanted out of there, can that be classed as quiting, I don't know.
Anyway bud, have u seen the promo for it?
5.) 05 Sep 2024 20:09:42
I haven't mate. I've not been too in touch with Boxing outside of the fights themselves. Kind of waiting for the Saudi's to actually take over lol.
6.) 05 Sep 2024 21:06:30
Lol I hear u bud.
Anyway, all good with u sir? Hope u been well.
7.) 06 Sep 2024 16:53:47
Yeah not too bad. How about yourself mate?
8.) 07 Sep 2024 10:43:00
All good man, still waiting on surgery for a torn ACL but other than that i'm all good.
15 Oct 2024 09:01:21
Thought at the time that he was looking a way out of there. The replays didn't show his ankle twisting or hitting anything but u never really know, so I'll give him the benefit of the doubt but only if he rematches Cameron next.
14 Oct 2024 17:00:00
Fair enough mate.
Was the main fight sanctioned by the BBBofC?
13 Oct 2024 11:46:47
Think a draw would have been fair.
Agree I hope big Fraz is OK, that was rough. Thought Victor Loughlin should have called break when Fraz fell into the ropes, give Wardley abit of a free shot.
13 Oct 2024 11:42:43
Him from Czechia? I thought I recognised him.
I had Bivol a point up going into the last round and tbh I forgot to score the last round so I either had it a draw or Bivol by 2.
Thought Bivol was excellent.
