Dubois certainly gets a lot into that overhand right. Loads of power there

Well done DD
In fairness, AJ took some solid punches and was seconds away from possibly finishing DD
Closed the distance too quickly and should have peppered him from the outside for a little longer
Reminded me of Arlovski’s mistake in his rematch with Sylvia

pretty excited for this fight

Bivol fights at one pace, but fuck he's good defensively. I'd love for Beterbiev to get up, but I think Bivol's discipline with his defense will get him the UD here. Hope I'm wrong.

It’s a classic contest ,
Fighter v boxer and both great , you could make a case for either one, I actually like both of them and don’t mind who wins, just going to enjoy it as a neutral.

What did we make of the fight ?
My initial thoughts straight after the fight without scoring it round by round , thought that bivol may have done enough from banking early rounds even though bieterbiev finished the stronger, that or a draw,, but it was tight . But I need to watch it again.
A classic chess match with two classy fighters,
Great card as well

I thought Bivol but would have understood a draw
One judge was def on crack scored so wide
Elite high level boxing brilliant to watch as both guys could not afford to switch off at any second...Bivol especially due to the obvious power of Beterbiev, but he also couldn't as Bivol could bank points.
Have to run it back - with Saudi $ but in a better more deserving stadium with fitting atmosphere for such a generational match up
