Bro Bivol Never blamed the judges, he immediately said he accepts the decision.
He‘s a real sportsman.
Aye but he got steamrolled at many points last night.
@@ShonwaMcFeckerty That's not what the original comment is getting at.
@@danielmori501so what mate?
Doesn't mean he didn't win. Beterbiev just got the decision.
@@danielmori501so what mate?
The fight was close, with Bivol performing well early, but Beterbiev's relentless pressure, especially in the later rounds, secured the win in my book
I disagree respectfully,
I feel like AB wasn’t landing the same way Bivol was and while he was pressuring and throwing more he was missing way more yet they landed the same amount of punches
@@olliedeaney8740you saw bivols face right
39 years old, coming off knee surgery, fighting in a 22 feet ring and Bivol still could not get away from Beterbiev! Rematch in a smaller ring
For real.
Wow, after all these years I find out rings are not the same size!
@@lsr3794same I thought the only difference was between pros and amateurs
Allws loved BOXING but never thought about Different sizes,I thought they was all same size.Thanks for opening our Eyes 👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀💯✝️🙏🇹🇭☸️🔯🕉️
pivol punshing the gloves of artur no points scored .. artur did punshing clean punshing on pivol .
the face of pivol was busted . the score on my card is 15- 7 . to artur decesive won .
I watched the fight without commentary and i thought Beterbiev won by 2 rounds. He won it in those championship rounds. No controversy, no robbery, just a close fight with the correct outcome.
Yh that’s what I thought as well
Even as they were announcing it I said I wouldn’t mind bivol winning cuz it was so close.
Bivol won first 3 rounds
Beterbiev came back by 3 rounds
Then it was a back and forth till round 10 when it was 5-5, and beterbiev won the last two rounds making it a 7-5.
But ay, we’re at a point where even if it’s a close fight, people will call it a robbery if their favourite didn’t win
@@yoyolf7416 I scored the fight exactly the same.
It's annoying as fuck when people cry robbery in a close fight. It takes a bit of glory away from the victor, when in reality he should be commended even more for winning a close fight.
@@sean4612 exactly, the fact that beterbiev is 40 years old and tore his meniscus 5 months ago and didn’t have a warm up fight, yet he still went toe to toe with bivol, the guy who toyed with canelo who was thought to be invincible. That’s just crazy from beterbiev.
Even tho I thought beterbiev won, I wanna see a rematch asap cuz the fight was soooo good. That’s the best fight we got in a loooong time, two warriors centre ring back and forth.
Nonsense.
Bivol didn't complain for a second about anything and never said it's robbery
It’s his fans or so called fans
Artur Beterbiev won fair and square for a guy that’s almost hitting his 40s and winning against bivol in his prime. For those talking about accuracy get the hell out of here beterbiev threw 1023 punches and bivol threw 583 punches. You need to understand if both fighters have guards up and only throwing accuracy then the fight will be a circus you need to throw punches whether it’s to land or not is to make opponent open its guard so you can strike and that’s what beterbiev did and was pressuring bivol. World class fight though credit to both and this is what you call boxing!
exactly...that is one reason why 'accuracy' and 'punches thrown' and 'punches landed' is not that helpful as fighters employ all sorts of tactics, feints, dummy punches, weak punches etc as part of strategy, techniques, traps, range finders etc...but a dumb computer or button presser will call it 'misses' Sometimes landing a punch is actually the wrong thing to do tactically and technically.
pivol punshing the gloves of artur no points scored .. artur did punshing clean punshing on pivol .

7:39 BIVOL HIMSELF SAID "I DIDN'T DO ENOUGH last rounds BECAUSE I WAS MOVING AND LOOKING FOR RIGHT MOMENTS BUT I DIDNT GET"
@@TheVanillatechBivol got swept in the championship rounds because he was just trying to survive at that point let’s call it what it is. No slight to Bivol as he showed his skill and heart, but Beterbiev showed why he had a 100% KO percentage with 3 belts going into the fight.
Most fight fans have never fought and it shows. Bivol is an intelligent fighter and he used movement and positioning to his advantage. i def gave him this one. Judges are corrupt
Do not lie , he said I couldn't have done better because I could but that doesn't mean he was loosing , on the opponent side , they were telling artur to knock him out in the 10th round and they were in panick
Lol but so said Beterbiev that he wasn't so happy with his performance etc, great to see tho how humble & nice both are, great example for the sport. 2 of the very best, def after Bivol schooled Canelo..
@@Byronic19134 Bivol heading in to those rounds had already won the fight, so he did not need to win any more rounds he needed to survive and thats what he did, beterbievs corner knew he lost. Until that corrupt guy came in and told them after he more than likely paid the judges
Very close fight but there was only one winner and that was Beterbiev, he wanted it more.
not at all
completely agree both fought well but in such a close fight stats wise its always going to go to the guy who pushes the pace and damages his opponent more
@ItsameAlex If Bivol wanted it more he would have been far more active in the championship rounds.
"wanting" it more doesn't win you rounds in boxing, landing clean punches does. glove and arm punches while walking forward is no the same
@@RRich100 What I mean by that is exactly what Brian said, he was willing to go for the win, Bivol wanted to cruise to the finish line, Artur didn't let him.
Artur Beterbiev turns 40 years old in january, coming of a knee surgery and inactive...AND STILL beat a 6 years younger prime Bivol. Beterbiev wanted this fight to happen ever since they both became champions in november 2017 Bivol's team (mostly his manager) ducked him for nearly 7 years just so they could age him out and hope they could get him when he is old yet still failed. Bivol a great fighter and human being but his manager,promoter and fans are 🤡's. Congrats Artur!👑Great review True Geordie! 👏
You are acting like a 🤡 now, chill.
Bivol won, get over it
I like artur beterbiev but bivol won, get over it.
Idk about that human being part but yeah great fighter
100%
Artur won the fight fair and square. He was putting the pressure whole fight and bivol was just running from him and was countering odd shots and he looked so tired in those last 3 rounds. Bivol took a beating and lost the fight.
Bivol did not take a beating, it was a very close fight, and needs a rematch
Casual fan spotted
A muppet who doesn’t know how to score a fight.
@@kboy128please don't cry brooo 😭😭
@@kboy128100 percent
Bivol's great but Beterbeiv was ready to die in the ring , it was the right decision, great great fight .
Another one who doesn’t know how to score a fight.
@@boxtradums0073watch the fight again bro without commentary
How are professional judges taught? I was an amateur judge and we gave point for clean punches landed. I would have given it to Bivol 7-5@@mathias2410
@Kai_Stone 100% Bivols guard was outstanding.
@Kai_Stone you sound like a football hooligan, I'm a boxing coach so I know a lot more about boxing then you and I didn't see a robbery. .
I'M a Bivol fan and I had a bet on him winning a split decision, however his output was well below what was required, they were drawing after the first 9 rounds and Beterbiev won the last 3 rounds and it was eye catching, therefore the right result IMO
100% bivol had more output than beterboidv on clean punches
Probably the best summary I’ve seen so far, spot on!
Probably the best summary I’ve seen so far, spot on!
@@ItsameAlex maybe but his volume wasn't anywhere near enough considering beterbiev clearly landed with more damage
@@ItsameAlex Punches landed (in each individual round, not total) is but a one factor in how fights are scored. Granted its the easiest one to measure objectively but judging in boxing is more complicated than that.
Really good analysis mate. I turned the commentary down and watched it again and scored it to Beterbiev by 2 rounds ... The commentary by the UK pundits were massively pro Bivol, even the highlights between rounds but they only showed Bivols highlights
Yeah I also noticed that
its cos hes MZL..M. They do that with the KNEWS as well. overrepresent n3.G4T.ive stories and constantly recycle to keep ppl h4AY.8n on us
For there are three that bear witness in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one. (1 John 5:7) The issue with this verse is that it is universally recognized by Biblical scholars and historians, including thirty-two Christian scholars of the highest eminence backed by fifty cooperating Christian denominations, as being inserted by the Church later. Since it was proven that this verse is a fabrication, it has been deleted from some of the later Bibles, such as the Revised Standard Version and the New Revised Standard Version.
Eddie Hearn when a decision finally doesn’t go his way 😱
What are you talking about? His fighter's loose decisions a lot
Dunno what you mean. Eddie Hearn’s fighters have been on a huge losing streak this year.
@@soundwavesuperior28exactly...I feel for him, in one of those rounds he was seen on his phone like it wasn't just his mind he was losing!!
what are you on about
@@davidgbemuducleary he lives a sad life and is easily triggered by eddie😂😂
Absolutely was not a robbery. Also, with damage based scoring, which is superior to boxing's current system, Artur wins
nah it was indeed a robbery
These people claiming robbery are the multiverses of malice
'damage-based scoring' 🤣🤣🤡🤡
@@ItsameAlex pal back to interviewing birds for 5k views yeah 👍
Not heard something as stupid as this for a good while. So, someone who marks up more easily, starts a fight with a natural disadvantage? You think that's a good idea? 'And the winner by complexion is..."
I had it 5-3 to Bivol going into the 9th round, from that point onwards it was all Beterbiev hence why I had Beterbiev winning the fight
pivol punshing the gloves of artur no points scored .. artur did punshing clean punshing on pivol .

Round 9 was a clear Bivol round. What are you talking about
@@t.e.r.a1749 yea right, it was his best round of the fight.everyone think they know boxing these days
@@milipac by what metric is it possible for Beterbiev to win round 9. The best thing he did in the round was walking forward despite getting his face boxed off
@@t.e.r.a1749 beterbiev finished strong in all rounds
Watched it a few times now and I'm even more convinced Beterbiev won this fight.
I gave Bivol 1 and 2 then 3, 4, 5 and 6 to Beterbiev I gave 7, 8 and 9 to Bivol then 10, 11 and 12 to Beterbiev.
3 to Beterbiev lmao go ahead and rewatch it again 🙏🏾😂
beterbiev didn't start until round 4. Bivol had 3rd, so by your scoring it was a draw
@@japreeceisom9438 you wanna read that again mate
He scored it 7-5 to Beterbiev
You watched the wrong fight!
@pamposepa048 I didn't did I though I just scorer the fight differently to you and went the same way as 2/3 judges. This was an incredibly close fight but Beterbiev over the 12 got the better of it.
The best quote I heard was "it wasn't a ghost that make Bivols face look like that"
No it was from how own gloves from BLOCKING PEDerbiev’s punches.
@@boxtradums0073 I don't think you're realising how extraordinary what Bivol admitted to was. Artur punches so hard that it goes through two pairs of gloves, hands and wraps and still damaged him. When you think about it like that it blows your mind.
It was still his own gloves very good power but he didnt land any clean punches other than a couple
@LawsonSims44 there were plenty punches that went through the guard of bivol. Bivol got the cleaner shots but to say only a few got through isn't correct.
@@boxtradums0073callin the goat of lhw pedbiev proves u just cant cope and ur a child with 0 knowledge about boxing😂
Scored it 115-113 for Beterbiev.
Rounds 1,2,4,8,9 for Bivol
Rounds 3,5,6,7,10,11,12 for Beterbiev.
RD 7 could have potentially been 10-10 with Bivol winning 2mins of the round but he was hurt bad and in flight mode for the final minute so I edged it to Artur.
Exactly how I had it 🙌
Beterbiev controlled the fight, people love the flash and beauty of Bivols style but he looked under siege most of the fight. I would also understand a Bivol decision
Nonsense take. Walking forward doesn’t mean you are controlling a fight.
@@boxtradums0073 lol you called my take bad and gave me that? its not a take because its not opinion. Why do you think no judges gave it to bivol even though he was much more efficient? You think the mob did it? Or did Beterbiev prove to be the more EFFECTIVE boxer?
Don’t often agree with everything TrueGeordie says but he’s spot on here
Just didnt agree with him on this one
They bet on the wrong fighter and lose their money then yell with that word ‘robbery’
Hint: "Accuracy" doesn't matter, at all. A guy that throws 20 punches to land 10, landed 10 shots with 50% "accuracy". But a guy that throws 10 punches to land 10, still only landed 10 shots. The "100% accuracy" doesn't mean anything. You don't get punished for throwing more punches, you don't get rewarded for throwing less.
Well said.
That is wrong. You are punished for missing in the Boxing Rules. The rules of the commission who judged the fight state : "Points will be awarded:-
For "defence" - guarding, slipping, ducking, or getting away from an attack." You literally get points for good defence. So all that missing should have been points for Bivol. You can't just throw twice as many punches to land the same. The rules state this should cause you to lose.
@@FightologyBoxingYou're wrong, the only punishment for missing shots in boxing is that they don't count towards the punch count and is likely to leave you vulnerable to getting hit in return. There is no scoring mechanism for making someone miss their punches alone.
What if they both land the same amount but one was way more accurate??? Bivol threw less than half of Beterbiev and landed the same amount...
Very well said!
Perfectly summed up, the aggressor, the whole fight…You can’t keep taking punches through the guard and class it as not getting hit
Oh shut up landing on gloves doesn’t score points
@@boxtradums0073 so if Artur knocks him down by punching through the guard would that not count? Lol 🤡
@@boxtradums0073 why’d he win then?
@@boxtradums0073 what t f throwing and landing on opponent is classed as punch
@@Bricky1996cause the corrupt guy who always pays off judges got in the ring and told his team he had won before it was called so how did he know?
Bivol’s face told the story, Artur wanted to win and pressed the action,,while Bivol fought too defensively.
Or just one person hits harder maybe 😂😂😂😂
How did Bivol's face tell the story? Beterbiev is literally the harder puncher... if he lands 50 punches less, Bivol's face still looks like that 🤷♂
this is a very weak argument. when kovalev lost to andre ward, the argument was 'the judges liked andre ward's skills, his defensive acumen' etc. 'it isnt only about punches landed, it's about da skillz doe'.
bivol displayed an array of skills inc aggression whenever he needed to.
Beterbiev hits harder, bivol relies on speed and movement.
you cant judge a fight off a face what are you getting at? different people have different reaction to punches plus your saying bivol fought more defenseively as if defense isnt scored in boxing, beterbiev literally threw over nearly 500 punches more and landing only 5 more punches than bivol
Bivol's face??? 😂😂😂 Did YOU see Beterbiev's face??? It was equally the same.
Had bivol at first, but I rewatched it now I have it for artur by a lot
Agree
By a lot???? I can understand by 1-2 rounds but that’s it.
Idk about you guys but I had uysk winning
cap
A lot? That's crazy. Nobody could make a case for "a lot".
Totally agree with you, Beterbiev won that for me by a couple of rounds - pressed the action for what 85% of the fight? had bivol hurt on a few occasions, thrown more punches and tried to make it happen more - Hearn is a gimp, its that simple.. screaming robbery is disgraceful!
BETERBIEV BEAT BIVOL!!! - from a truly explosive fight Beterbiev emerged the clear winner, albeit close. The sheer accumulative weight and accuracy of Beterbiev's punches by the championship rounds 10, 11 and 12 eventually emptied the fighting tank, ideas and motivation of Bivol: he lost the will and strategy to win, suffered much reduced attack dynamics and was sadly in survival mode the final three rounds. He was beaten sufficiently to ascertain Bivol had been in the fight of his life. Massive Props, Beterbiev: Undisputed Champion !!! - you were both a silent assassin and gladiator by means of sheer ring generalist command. Bivol already's indicative of areas of improvement, cometh the Beterbiev v Bivol 2.
For people arguing the desicion, ask them what would happen if they fought another round. It's clear as day Bivol was ripe...
There were moments when they were in the clinch, and Beterbiev had one hand free and was trying to work in the clinch, and the ref would separate right away. And people wonder why close distance fighting is dying... The ref was favoring Bivol all fight long. He kept warning Artur for everything but never once warned Bivol for stiff arming...
Yeah he was favouring Bivol while he allowed PEDerbiev to hit behind the head.
Okay, I see now. You replied to both my comments. I sense a Bivol fan boy lmao. Because there were literally no punches behind the head in this fight. Usually, it only happens when the opponent bends down to avoid the punches, and to Bivol's credit, he never bent down. Get your eyes checked... Ref was warning Beterbiev for anything and he didn't allow Beterbiev to work on the inside. Anytime Artur had a free hand and was looking to punch in the clinch, the ref would go safe Bivol lol. Ref knew Beterbiev was going to mess him up in the clinch. @boxtradums0073
Ref did not want Bivol to get messed up in the clinch. Anytime Artur was ready to work with his free arm, the ref would quickly go safe Bivol 😂
Eddie saying a “boxing masterclass” and “skill and defence with offence thrown in” just shows how he scores fights, defence first not damage first.
damage only wins rounds it occurs in. a lot of the fight beterbiev was hitting gloves and arms
@@RRich100 It wasn’t my opinion on the fight, just an observation, I’m more of an mma fan and every round the number 1 scoring criteria is damage (supposedly.) that’s all I was saying.
You are punished for missing in the Boxing Rules. The rules of the commission who judged the fight state : "Points will be awarded:-
For "defence" - guarding, slipping, ducking, or getting away from an attack." You literally get points for good defence. So all that missing should have been points for Bivol. You can't just throw twice as many punches to land the same. The rules state this should cause you to lose. Taken directly from their website of judging rules.
Damage is not valued as high in boxing as MMA. Powershots and clean punches is the highest value. Damage is the highest value in MMA.
@@FightologyBoxing oh, fair I didn’t know that, thanks, that’s not something I ever considered, I thought amateur boxing was scored similar to point fighting and pro boxing was similar to mma, as a boxing fan do you think that’s a good way of scoring or would you prefer a more damage based scoring system?
Honestly you are the only pundit that has wisdom.
Everybody else is struggling to see why Beterbiev won. If you are apply pressure to the other fighter. What else will the judges see. It was clear Arthur was more aggressive and applying more pressure to Dmitri
It could’ve gone either way, it was that close, definitely not a robbery for me.
exactly , wasnt like fury v ngannou level robbery
@@abo_909wym by level😂 this is not a robbery not even close😂 if a fight is agreed by 99% could have been a draw is never a robbery if edged to one person
@@itzsimple7640 i know , never said it was robbery😒
They didn’t even tell him he needs a knockout, it was way more nuanced than that, people hanging on 4 words from 60 seconds
Honestly mate
What did they say exactly? Sure sounded like they were telling him he needed a knockout.
@TheLongWind he's had 20/20 ko's so it would make sense to tell him he needs a knockout instead of leaving it in the judges hands.
I’ve seen the whole conversion and they told him to knock him out, not he ‘needs’ a knockout. The rest was more tactics and basically to fuck Bivol up. Of course he wants a ko he wants to keep the streak! I’ve tried to find it again, but it’s not on the DAZN card they just say the ‘translators said he needs a knockout’. Well I thought it was delivered in English! I can’t find the full thing on RUclips or Google, no idea how I saw it maybe one of the boxing RUclipsrs like true Geordie, I think it’s on a non DAZN broadcast where they focus on Beterbiev’s corner before round 11. If I find it I’ll share here
@@TheLongWindthey wanted to keep the 100% knockout ratio that’s it.
All Bivol did was throw baby punches and run around the ring like he always does. Biterbiev did far more damage, more volume, more aggression and went for the KO last 3 rds. Clear and easy win for Biterbiev
im very happy beterbiev won and i whole heartedly thought he won or it was a draw but tbf to bivol, he never once blamed anyone or anything and he took the loss like a man. ive been a fan of his for a while as well and if he wasnt fighting artur, i would have wanted him to win
Bivol's face was wrecked
he had a few bumps... it wasnt wrecked. smh... these new boxing fans are annoying
@@kiaadams104 lol triggered 🤣 😂
Eddie is a cry baby. All his fighter is losing and he can't take it no more
No robberies in close fights like this, put respect on Beterbiev's name! New King of the division 👑
💯 Beterbiev. Better boxer. Better timing. More disciplined. Stronger. Better technically. Better feet (as an aggressor).
I had Bivol 3 rounds ahead after round 9 and then Beterbiev winning rounds 10-12. I think a draw would have been the fairest result, but I don't think it's a robbery, I think there was at least one round early in the fight that I gave to Bivol that could have gone either way.
Bro literally exactly my thoughts...absolutely looked like a draw...we need a rematch
Exactly! To call it a robbery would imply that Bivol won it hands down, when in reality it was super close.
Facts I never understand when fighters don’t go for it in the championship rounds
The fairest result is a Beterbiev win, you shouldn't get rewarded for ducking a guy for 7 years.
@@abdulswamad92 No we don't.
Good analysis! Brilliant fight, but in even matches it is right to reward the most active boxer, which Beterbiev was for large parts, and he took over more and more the longer the rounds went on..
Beterbiev won! Bivol didn’t throw a punch in Round 11 I don’t see how that’s not an 10-8 Rd for Beterbiev!
No, wasn't dominant enough to be 10-8 in that round, but I had Beterbiev by 3/4 rounds regardless. I was disappointed with Beterbiev's performance, and he clearly was too.
@@ZaydDepaor
A 10-8 round can occur in boxing without a knockdown. While knockdowns often lead to 10-8 rounds, judges can still score a round 10-8 if one fighter thoroughly dominates the other. This might involve one fighter landing significantly more punches, controlling the pace of the fight, while the other is clearly struggling, defenseless, or barely offering any offense. I believe this was the case with Bivol that round.
Beterbiev won the fight. The right man won 100000000000000%
Respect to both fighters.
Everything you said was spot on 👊🏼
Eddie hearn was the one who said it was a robbery!
Hearn is absolutely overreacting. So is anyone who calls this a robbery, it was a close fight that could have gone either way.
The scariest part for Bivol to ponder if there's a rematch with Beterbiev is that we don't actually know how much Beterbievs knee surgery held him back in that first fight.
A lot of things happen through the legs obviously such as flowing movements and throwing power shots. Beterbiev might not have been fully confident to spar, train and commit during the fight at 100%, so it's possible in the rematch, if Beterbiev is back up to full fitness and 100% confidence in his knee, that he'll be faster at closing the ring off(kinda like we saw in rounds 11 and 12) and throwing with even more zap on those hammers.
So if Bivol was on the brink of being in trouble a few times during the first fight as we saw, he might be in a whole different world of hurt in the rematch against an even scarier animal.
I just finished watching the Wembley experience of AJ vs DDD
Bruhv major respect to your craft

Wtf 😂
rimmer
Respect to him but he did sook on a dyldo
@@ShonwaMcFeckerty after the bum aswell 😭
Why? Probably because 1. he believes in his soul that Bivol won, and more importantly 2. IT'S HIS PROMOTER. There is no reality in this Internet-fuelled doom-existence that we're in where controversy doesn't arise... that's mainly thanks to RUclipsrs and "journalists".... they're the one thats piss out the headlines that we all clamp onto like stag beetles on hippo shant.
Well said mate
It was 115 - 113 to beterbiev the right man won. That’s why there are 3 judges..
that one judge though.....................................right man won, but that one judge needs to get banned, seriously
Need to do it again, genuinely one of the most entertaining and competitive fights (for all the marbles) in the last 10 years.
7-5 Artur go cry about it
This guy was fully supporting Beterbiev on his live and even he was surprised at the score. Give us a break, Bivol won that fair and square and Bertebiev and his team knew that in the later rounds of the fight.
Was it the same judge who gave AJ the win over Usyk?
Spot on. Glenn Feldman scored it 115-113 to Beterbiev, same judge who scored it 115-113 to Joshua vs. Usyk
Get him fired
Beterbiev won that fight easy. Joshua got slapped around by Usyk
Bivol said in Russian this guy's got bricks in his hands it was over heard
We live in a world where everything is a "robbery ".
Its stupid.
Prime example of a person who knows f all about boxing.
This will get deleted btw he has paid a team to control comments that don't agree with him, the more videos he's putting out about boxing is showing he knows absolutely nothing honestly.
Close fights can’t be a robbery
I scored it a draw personally...we need a rematch...but it was absolutely NOT a robbery...
Good breakdown
Bivol made the smart choice by not engaging in reckless exchanges, instead opting to pick his spots. However, his counter-punching and selective shots weren't frequent enough to secure a win. You can’t blame him for being cautious, as he was clearly trying to avoid Beterbiev’s knockout power.
Beterbiev deserved the victory. He applied relentless pressure, cutting off the ring and dictating the pace throughout the fight. It’s incredible that, at nearly 40, adjusting from knee injury Beterbiev was able to outwork and outclass a much younger, peak-level fighter who’s regarded as one of the best pound-for-pound. His ring generalship was masterful, proving why he was the better fighter on the night.
After the match ended, Bivol slumped and hugged his coaches as if to say "that he was safe from death."
Interesting interpretation when he raised his arms and beterbiev walked off and barely seemed interested in the ref calling the result.
Yep was almost saying thank fuck I didn’t get knocked out
Bivol actually commented in a post fight interview regardless of the result, he was relieved the fight was over with. Betrrbiev would probably have wanted it to continue if possible.
@@0ccam5Raz0ru realise this was arturs first time going 12 😂😂😂 he probably didn't even know what to do😂 and was disappointed he didnt ko him
No,I didn't see that. The only success Beterbiev had was in the last two rounds
Brian, I need a video on Francis Koing Ferreira in R1, dissapointing enough that you didnt do a watchalong
your reaction wouldve been priceless🤣
Overreacting because all his fighters keep losing. he can't buy a win these days. 😂
People saying Ben wasn't really hurt, and now the hospital reported Ben lost a Eyelash in that tumble. 😂
Has any of eddie hearns fighters actually won yet...
Whitaker’s performance was decent until he realised the guy was not getting with the script and still standing fighting back- hitting Whittaker at will when the ‘incident’ happened.
All i got to say is bivol throw 500 less punches and only landed 4 less punches
As a boxing purist, I did just about give it to Betrbiev, but it was very close. Eubank Jr v Benn...not interested one iota. Liam Cameron? what a down to earth guy! I hope he wins the rematch.
At the end of the fight, whilst Beterbiev was being congratulated Turki Alalshikh was having words with Bivol waving his fingers in his face sadly I can't lip-read but maybe you could check it out and tell us your opinion, another excellent commentary that night
Both of them fought like real champs, beterbiev openly admits it wasn't really his best performance but coming off major surgery at 40 and still being able to pull off a victory after losing the opening rounds is incredible. Bivol is a great sportsman he made no excuses and accepted the defeat , in the end they both know they both was not at their best but for the fans it was one of the best fights of the last few years
Spot on TG, it would have been a Travesty if Beterbiev had lost.
You're absolutely right!! In my view, Beterbiev scored more points in the 11th round than Bivol in all those first 4 rounds he won at the beginning. You count points not rounds, if someone won a round by a huge margin, it can contain more points than the opponents 3 rounds if the opponent won them by a slight margin. Last two rounds were crucial, especially the 11th, witch was the most diminant round in the match by far. It was a very close fight, and if Bivol pulled a draw in the 11th round, he would have been the winner in my opinion. But in the match we saw, if I had to choose a winner, I choose Beterbiev.
Bivol rounds won: 1, 2, 7, 9, 12
Artur rounds won: 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 11
10 & 12 are interchangeable really - either way but 7-5 Artur is the way i saw it on the night
12 was clearly Artur
That bruising to bivols eye probs helped towards the judges going beters way. Bivol was clearly throwing less trying to protect it.
Bitter Hearn got humbled by the better Beterbiev
Beterbiev is like the HULK the more you punch him the stonger and angrier he gets....you just can't keep him off you😂😂😂
Myself, I believe true Champions always fight up to the last bell. I don't like fighters that are always on the back foot. I like aggression instead of so much defense. And I always look at the fighter's face after the fight to see who has the most damage
So Beterbiev not fighting the first half and getting absolutely embarrassed boxing wise doesn't affect your decision? 😂😂😂😂
You gave ZERO credit to Liam Cameron my old England boxing team mate. It was a mismatch.
And also give some respect to Frazer Clarke.
Clearly you've never boxed. Wally.
That judge giving 4 rounds was a disgraceful
Almost as disgraceful as Whittaker quitting n pulling his opponent out the ring.
nothing disgraceful about, a lot of rounds were debatable and close, so easy for 4 of them to go Beterbiev's way as seeing as he was aggressor and doing most damage through majority of fight.
@@ShonwaMcFeckertynot getting enough attention that fully quit
I thought it was really telling the way Bivol reacted immediately after the fight. He wished he would've done better, and pretty much acted like he just got his ass beat by the old man. Any longer than maybe 6 or 7 months, he should win the rematch if he gets on his bike, but Beterbiev is gonna set his feet and throw harder shots in the rematch, too. He won't try to box with Bivol again. I think you have to count tons of Beterbiev's "missed" punches, the ones on the guard, the shoulders & elbows differently. They clearly hurt, and made Bivol want to run & cover by the last 25-30 seconds of so many rounds.
Beterbiev totally won that fight, he was the aggressor moving forward and dictated the pace
Undisputed can not be won by being on the back foot trying to survive 12 rounds
bivol's clean punches were more satisfying than beterbiev punching at air
Bivol did better in the beginning rounds, beterbiev did better at the end plus more damage to Bivol, close fight but Beterbiev won.
The Chechen warlord in attendance made the final decision that night
Cry ?
"warlord" but ye
Stop throwing dirt on Beterbievs performance. It was 7 rounds for Artur, 4 for Bivol, 1 was half half
Yeah, there was no robbery, that's stupid talk. This was fight was close but Artur won it in my opinion. Eddie is just annoyed because he's loosing a lot at the moment.
Eddie Hearn reaction reminded me of Brian’s to Joey getting whooped by Lil Cra Cra
Ben Whitaker’s Punches reminded me of when Caleb plant fought Benavidez, quick combinations with very little power behind them, like you said, Whitaker needs to play to his advantages, getting into a dogfight is the worst thing he could do
Absolutely no chance he got 4 rounds those refs was a joke
Juergen klopps gone like the wind pal
Beterbiev got 7, Bivol got 4 and 1 was half half. I understand how someone COULD score 8-4 Artur.
one of the best fights i ever seen live .. i had bivol up 2 rounds but i could see it even being a draw beterbiev was just more active at the end .. rematch would be the right thing to do i think we all want to see it again
I had Bivol by 4 the first time I watched. I still have him by 2 after rewatching. Not a robbery by any means but I definitely disagree with the decision

Though 7,8, 10 and 11 I might’ve mixed up, I remember who I had in every other round and 7-5 as the score
The last two rounds made the difference upto 10th round it was 50/50 but after 10th round beterbiev was clear winner
Bivol won you don’t score goals by hitting the post. Clean shots and great defence
it is more complex than that. there is a long criteria and not all punches are equal in skill and effects.
Even when blocked, powerful punches that slow or hurt an opponent demonstrate effective aggression by showcasing strength, control, and the ability to influence the fight's momentum.
Absolutely spot on moments, its like we need a drama after every fight that doesn't go there way, it was a 50/50 fight before & after the fight
No views in 45 seconds bro fell off
I dont think u can throw twice the amount of punches and get outlanded and in a technically better way and be the true winner i scored it 7-5 to bivol but i love defense and movment so its not a ribbery all round brilliant fight so many close rounds
My idea of boxing in decisions is the person who lands the most and doesn’t get hit. I believe Bivol won 115-113.
@@Mrpicklestick right so what you’re saying is that Bivol out landed beterbiev in 6 of the rounds as well…and Bivols landed percentage was astronomically higher and he landed the more cleaner shots. Of course it makes sense.
Cry about it lol
@goatlinton365 okay so by your logic it's a draw?
Not scoring power punches then? Interesting
@@MrpicklestickDefense also is a criteria when scoring boxing, so if you land 3 more punches a round and miss 30 more punches that is to be taken into account.
Also a scoring punch should land flush with the knuckle parts of the gloves, to the targeted area (not on the guard) even if those punches are effective shouldnt be scored the same as a clean punch to the face or body.
I thought Beterbiev's corner told him he needed a KO because that was the only way to be sure of winning such a close fight. They didn't want to leave it in the hands of the judges.
Brian’s work rate is actually insane when you think about it
Not hard sitting down talking for 20 minutes and making 10x a normal salary is it???
Obviously has an editor as well bruh 😂
❤ BROTHER DEFINITELY YOUR ANALYSIS, COMMENTS AND COMMENTARY WAS EXCELLENT
It was a close fight it depends what you like a aggressive front forward fighter constantly pressuring. Yes artur didn’t even land cleanly on Bivol. Bivol in fact landed Cleaner punches however it didn’t do anything. Yet Bivol face marked up badly. Bivol defence and footwork was brilliant. Rematch needed. I still had it edged to Bivol. Just because I like Bivol style however it wasn’t a robbery not complaining that artur won but rematch needed
Even when blocked, powerful punches that slow or hurt an opponent demonstrate effective aggression by showcasing strength, control, and the ability to influence the fight's momentum.
Beterbiev wasn’t gonna lose with that Chechnya guy there
You should keep the same energy for UFC events when you see the terrorists Presidents of America attending
Western hypocrisy at its finest
Cry ?
I didn't like seeing catarov there thought it was odd, no excuses either way but didn't seem right
he won bus he was better - just that.
