What did you make of Beterbiev-Smith? 🤔👇

[@AvaAba-br4fn]

Artur Beterbiev will clean all Heavy Weight Division too 😎

[@rogerdaigle7575]

@@AvaAba-br4fn You mean light Heavy weight,right ?

[@jose-Maki]

Smith gave it everything and tried to win, landed some goods shots that didn't put a dent in him and beterbiev just could keept working because of it and broke smith down and stopped him

[@barryjgillis]

@@rogerdaigle7575 He means what he says he means. Do you not understand simple English???

Eastern European fighters use steroids. Their athletes have been doing this for years they are experts at evading detection. They are pioneers at this sort of thing. He is a cheat. Every Eastern European boxer. They are all cheats. Fuck em. It is not fair. Guys work hard to get a long shot, at greatness and get cheated. Ban Eastern European fighters.

All the British fans making excuses for soft Smith is a joke. He was poor this fight and used none of his attributes. Even Yarde went for it

[@lukesaward8761]

Where's all the excuses? I haven't seen any? He lost to the better man, both had time out, so both weren't at their best even beterbiev was more open than I expected him but he was a level above Smith.

Yarde got absolutely mauled as well. There’s Beterbiev, Bivol and then everyone else at LHW. Calling anyone soft who has been in the ring with Canelo and Beterbiev is hilarious.

Arthur is complete fighter ..bivol has a plan but once he gets hit with power of arthur goes out window there to survive seek and destroy just like prime Mike tyson

Tim couldn’t have said it better. Bivol is going to have to fight a perfect fight to keep beterbiev up off him

[@Sergeantcruz1216]

And he has the skills to do it...

[@2freezing]

@@Sergeantcruz1216 so does Beterbiev, he doesn’t just give up rounds to land big punches. Canelo was a masterful performance, but he was significantly smaller and won’t bully Beterbiev around like that.

[@Sergeantcruz1216]

Smith is a supermiddleweight. Beterbiev has been knocked down by lesser fighter therefore he is human. This fight will be a super classic. Inside specialist against outside specialist. Speed vs power. Styles make boxing matches. I pick Bivol by decision but will not be surprised if Beterbiev knocks Bivol out in the later rounds. But Beterbiev needs to knock out Bivol or else he loses on points. @@2freezing

[@Sergeantcruz1216]

good point, but Bivol's defense and distance control will go a long way. Bivol knows how not to get cornered. He also has a good chin. Nevertheless, a Beterbiev knockout is obviously possible. Interestingly enough, I was watching Teddy Atlas on his youtube chanel. Mr. Atlas was Mike Tyson's trainer during Tysons time. Atlas was a student and assistant of the great Cus Damato who was essentially Tyson's teacher. Mr. Atlas is picking Bivol over Beterbiev. That's amazing...@@2freezing

[@2freezing]

@@Sergeantcruz1216 They both have extreme preternatural motors. If Beterbiev deciphers Bivols great jab, I think he can TKOed. However, Beterbiev isn’t better at outside fighting than Bivol which can potentially earn him a close decision imo.

[@franciscoderosas1647]

If you want to know more about real boxing, always check out Mr. Bradley's comments. Accurate, insightful and inspiring at the same time. There is nothing better, perhaps only Mr. Tyson comes close.

[@Pigeoning]

I give Smith credit for continuing to throw knowing he was getting battered. Still, it went as predicted with the B tier Smith getting stopped with relative ease. Vintage Beterbiev showed up and the myths about Yarde exposing his age were obviously nonsense. BRING ON BIVOL!

Inactivity can turn a fairly capable fighter into a fairly poor fighter. 17 months no tune up. What the heck was they thinking putting a cuddly kitten in with a vicious lion.

Tim is absolutely right about Beterbiev suffering no damage in this fight, but he is still delusional about Bivol having a good chance of beating the Monster. No chance at all, not even close, Tim.

Why is Smith bending down to Beterbievs height. Really not happy with Buddy McGurt as Callum Smith’s coach. He’s just not getting the results with any British fighter.

[@sowansher7589]

thats one thing i never understood, who the fk is this dudes coach and i seen him do it in his other fights too. mf ur like one of the tallest in ur division use ur fking reach. guy is crouching throwing hooks ffs. the only way to give beterbiev a tough fight is u gotta be as tall as callum and at the same time match beterbievs strength so u can keep him off you and there is no one in the division like that . this fking head to head hook style doesnt work against him. the only time callum was having success when he was using his reach and catching artur coming in with his hook and then pivoting out and away from the ring.

Bivol looks like a better boxer than BB. He will be the 2nd best boxer in BB's career after Usyk. But I dont think he can keep BB far from him during 12 rounds. Boxing fans and experts divided 2 for the match result. However the guys who sparred withh BB make only 1 direct and certain forecast " BB will KO Bivol"

You're right bro!! No alcohol, no smoke, no drugs, no clubbing, train hard and decipline..you will became CHAMPION!!

[@AB-wu5iv]

I like Beterbiev but if you seriously think he is not on some kind of PED at 38 then your seriously deluded. No 38 year old can punch with that power with that insanely high output. It's obviously EPO or some designer substance that he is cycling perfectly. All these guys at the top level are doing it, even Khabib and Islam do it. These Dagesantis and Chechnyans are all cycling.

[@ganuv]

Bivol will get knocked out by Arthur in less than 8 rounds.

[@benthekeeshond545]

Beterbiev is playing foul. In so many occasions, he was aiming to hit Smith's back of the head. Most of his kos happened after he landed a punch to the back of his opponent's head. Perhaps I don't understand the rules of boxing because nobody complains.

[@fillomojica6965]

😂 bivol will take to school to betervied I am making a lot of money 💰 theare betarvied only win because he hits ppl behind the head go wach his fight he drops his opponent with rabitt punches why no one talk about that a boxer like bivol he will get schooled 💯

[@inquisitvem6723]

I like Bivol over Beterbiev

[@erikosorio5855]

I agree Bivol wins on points. Canelo couldn't hurt him the few times he got hit flush. Bivol has probably the best defense in boxing. On compubox he gets hit the least of any boxer. And is highly accurate good puncher.

[@barryjgillis]

Canelo wouldn't stand a chance against Beterbiev... We'll see how great Bivol's defense is against Beterbiev, when Bivol is laying is down for the count on the canvas...

[@Sergeantcruz1216]

It's amazing how people get so excited about knockouts. But i get it. Knockouts are exciting to see. Knockouts are great but is it boxing? How did the all time powerhouse Mike Tyson lose? He lost to a better boxer. How did the monster George Foreman lose? He lost to a better boxer Muhammad Ali. Callum Smith is not Bivol. His skills are not that great. Do you think Bivol is going to allow all that inside boxing? Beterbiev is a great knockout fighter. Beterbiev is a great inside attack fighter. Did anyone notice that Beterbiev can not attack while walking backwards? Bivol is an outstanding outside distance control fighter. Bivol has better footwork. Beterbiev has been knocked down before therefore he is human. If Beterbiev fails to knockout Bivol, he will lose on points. I respect Beterbiev tremendously but for me, a boxer beats a puncher. Bivol by decision unless the fight is in Vegas where as we all know, going to the judges is like watching a comedy show...

[@scottcaporale9892]

I don't totally agree with all points, but good overall analysis and solid takes. Good post!👍

[@barryjgillis]

You won't have to worry about the Judges in Vegas or anywhere else, because Beterbiev is going to knock out Bivol... :)

[@Sergeantcruz1216]

@@barryjgillis Yes that is certainly possible. Beterbiev is a tremendous inside fighter. Nevertheless, he has never fought such a skilled outside distance control boxer like Bivol. For Beterbiev to win, he must knock out Bivol. Otherwise he will lose by points. If you think Bivol will allow Beterbiev to come inside and slice him up then you have not been watching Bivol's matches. Bivol has better footspeed and knows how to immediately get out of a corner. At the end of the day, it will be an awesome chess match. Inside vs outside masters. Beterbiev can not fight walking backwards which Bivol will exploit. I respect Beterbiev but I prefer boxing skill to pure punching power.

@@Sergeantcruz1216 We've heard this all before... We'll see what happens when Bivol tastes the canvas against Beterbiev... :)
