villarule123 Posted October 12, 2024 VT Supporter Posted October 12, 2024 Not quite Canelo - GGG levels of bad judging but come on! 4 rounds up!
Follyfoot Posted October 12, 2024 VT Supporter Posted October 12, 2024 It’s quite bizarre switching between the feeds TNT had it for Beterbiev sky had it for Bivol The judges obviously like the front foot approach and the work at the end of most rounds catching the eye
foreveryoung Posted October 12, 2024 Posted October 12, 2024 I don't like that. I think Beterbiev was tough, but Bivol was the better fighter, an defo won most rounds.
sheepyvillian Posted October 12, 2024 Posted October 12, 2024 Bivol won that, and I think you'll find most believe Bivol nicked that. 1
avfc1982am Posted October 12, 2024 Posted October 12, 2024 Ahh.....Allah. Makes sense now. It was a close fight but Berterbiev did not win that imo. 2
avfc1982am Posted October 12, 2024 Posted October 12, 2024 Bivol needed to convert to get the decision.

Follyfoot Posted October 12, 2024 VT Supporter Posted October 12, 2024 I will watch this again, but it could’ve gone either way in my opinion could’ve been a draw. By far not the most outrageous decision ever given they gave it to the guy on the front foot as often they do whether it be right or wrong.

If Berterbiev wasn't Muslim he wouldn't have got the decision imo. It was without doubt a close fight but Bivol was always ahead imo. 115-113 & 116-112 were bullshit scores 1

It was crisp and accurate, where AB was more rushed and hopeful. Great fight tbf, I just thought the wrong hand was raised. 1

There are arguments for both sides, if you have a look at the punch statistics, the right results was called. Incredibly tight But not a disgrace as we’ve seen before

They couldn't have the Muslim lose in such a massive Muslim country.

sheepyvillian Posted October 12, 2024 Posted October 12, 2024 Honestly, he's a class act, Bivol. For the purist, there's no better boxer to watch imo. 1
