Undisputed gentle heavyweight champion Artur Beterbiev requested his Instagram followers in the present day whether or not he wants to present a rematch to the crushed Dmitry Bivol.
Beterbiev (21-0, 20 KOs) already beat the previous WBA champion Bivol (23-1, 12 KOs) by a 12-round majority determination on October twelfth in a battle that resembled a cat chasing a mouse round. Bivol confirmed no need to face and battle after Beterbiev turned up on the stress within the sixth.
Bivol made it REALLY boring along with his Shakur-esque model of combating, operating, attempting to not get hit, and tying up Beterbiev when he’d get close to sufficient to throw. Followers don’t need to see one other run-job by Bivol, and that’s what he’s going to do as a result of he can’t stand and battle Beterbiev. He’ll get chewed up.
Boxing followers had waited years to look at that battle, and it was 100% boring, and never due to Beterbiev.
It was Bivol. He made it unwatchable, and he deserved to lose. Usually, when a fighter will get crushed, they should work their approach again, which is what Bivol ought to should do by combating Joshua Buatsi to get in place for one more title shot.
One motive Beterbiev requested his followers is that there’s a extra entertaining choice for him in opposition to the winner of the February 1st battle between David Benavidez and David Morrell. These two youthful fighters have entertaining kinds, and they’re going to come to battle Beterbiev, not run across the ring for 12 rounds like Dmitry Bivol.
If Beterbiev has any say so within the matter, he wants to inform Bivol to get misplaced, return to the tip of the road, and take his operating model someplace else. Perhaps Canelo Alvarez needs to present Bivol a rematch. If not, Bivol ought to have to return to the salt mines and slog his approach again like the remainder of the grunts attempting to get a title shot. Bivol does NOT deserve an instantaneous title shot after the safety-first battle he put in.
Beterbiev beat Bivol by the scores 115-113, 116-112 and 114-114. I had Beterbiev profitable 10-2. Bivol fought nicely sufficient to win two of the early rounds when Beterbiev was compiling knowledge.
