Isn't that war criminal Kadyrov in the ring celebrating with him ?

 

[Rita_Poon]

He won the last 3 for me which he needed to.

Fine margins.

Someone puts him 1 up at that point though?

I felt, Bivol was absolutely feeling everything he was hit with, Beterbiev save a few hits that connected he didn't care about the power.

 

[Rita_Poon]

"if his excellency want, we will do"

Bivol should retire for a year just to work him over. Puppet.

 

[Wizard]

It shouldn’t be the way but the fact that Beterbiev was mostly finishing rounds stronger will have come into the judges’ minds. Recency bias and all that.

 

[Brett Angell Delight]

Not in that direction.

Personally I had it a draw. There were a couple of close rounds in there so I can see somebody with a keener eye than me scoring 2 in that direction. 4 is beyond the realms of credulity though.

Classy response from Bivol.

 

[Gilbert..]

I would have had a draw.
But i thought beterbiev won the last few rounds.
And worth it to see eddie hearns face. He's a jinx

What lands counts. If it lands hard enough it takes the decision away from the ref and judges. That wasn't tonight.

 

[Nightman]

He came on strong towards the end, but surely Bivol was in front by a at least a couple going into the 11/12th?

Raining poo on poor Eddie at the minute

Two real humble gentleman fighters aswell.
Compare that to the two clowns eubank and benn earlier.
Chalk and cheese.

Bivol - Kyrgyzstani-russian
Beterbiev - Canadian-russian

Hmmm. Phenomenal power and stamina from both. In just the right catchment age as well.

Always felt like Bivol landed more. Deffo threw less, though, which as you say, counts for nothing really (or shouldn't)

 

[Encoder]

Great fight, two warriors. The rest (Kadryov, Saudi etc.) Knocks me a bit sick.
