I feel like I've betrayed myself by not watching any of bivols fights. I love how he uses his back leg as a spring to launch counters. Really nice boxer style all around.
Watch the Pascal fight, the way he lunges forward with the right, steps back and forcefully lunges frontwards again with the right multiple times is a thing of beauty. pascal is also a heavy hitter. I got Bivol winning against CLENela AlvaROIDS on pts today. IF its scored fairly. Id like to see Bivol unleash more like he did against joe smith in the last 10 secs of the 12th rd. After a high paced and ton of energy expenditure from Bivol, I’m surprised he’s able to unleash that attack at the end. Incredible stamina and very efficient. To be able to sustain the same amount of energy from the 1st to 12th rd, this man has phenomenal conditioning. Definitely watch the Pascal fight, I believe Pascal’s build is closer to CLENelas build, and Bivol took some body shots and a couple of uppercut from Pascal but was never fazed. Today will definitely be interesting. Looking forward to it.
Bivol is a true champion! He’s humble and respectful and incredibly intelligent! I hope he stands at the top of the boxing world! Joe smith is a great fighter also and I hope he continues to have a great career.
I'll always like Joe Smith Jr for ending Bernard "Bigot" Hopkins career. Most of the time I can separate the athlete from the person... but in his case, he brought his American racism into a fight with a Welsh fighter. I don't care if Calzaghe even backed him up saying it was to sell the fight, most people knew it wasn't. If that was an acceptable way to sell a fight, every "bad guy" would do it. Mayorga was the ultimate "bad guy" and he always had far more entertaining ways to sell a fight.
In my younger days in the 70s and 80s heavyweight was the only division that I took seriously, these days it's the only one I think is a joke. These light heavyweights and under are serious, in shape, talented fighters, and a pleasure to watch.
@WB so it shows a contradiction in your thinking. a 45 year old won the belt, his peak was in the 70s. Emmanuel Steward and Eddie Futch were around 70s 80s. both probably have more accolades posthumously than any big coach right now
Man hearing commentary from someone who knows boxing is just pure bliss excellent performance by Bivol and excellent commentary as well by the commentators here.
There is no doubt that Bivol is a truly complete fighter. So clever and amazing stamina. He is on another level. No chance for Canelo in my opinion. Can‘t wait for that fight.
@@JJ-om8nn He moves like plant, like bj but more pop, but his chin is lesser than those two. Canelo will catch him like Smith did but it won't be at the end of a round.
You’re obviously biased, both are elite fighters with weaknesses that can be exploited. You’re lying to yourself if you think Canelo can’t win or that there’s some big talent gap between the two
At 34:33, same tactic which Canelo used on Bivol the night they fought!.Pure frustration for not been able to land anything meaningful on this Master Technician called Dimitri Bivol!.To much talent and CLASS for Canelo and Smith to handle.
Canelo fighting GGG after Bivol @168. So he's not going for undisputed. If he beate bivol canelo would have to give up the belt to move back down to 168
@@elinino5275 next year is always a possibility. If canelo gets past his next 3 opponents, and beterbiev gets past smith jr, 2023 is surely gonna have canelo go against beterbiev for the undisputed light heavyweight title.

Smith Hurt Bivol more than Canelo ever did, can’t believe people were betting Canelo would knock Bivol by the 9th round, I understand maybe by UD but by KO? Tf, Canelo fans even believe Canelo could beat Usyk, the level of delusion is high
I am. However it's not because I was not familiar with Bivol before he fought Canelo.

Smith fought at a much faster pace than canelo would as a pressure fighter. If canelo wins, I say he’d win by a counter punch like he did to Amir khan. Otherwise, I see him getting outbox.
The bivol it's not big, it's smaller than some of the 168 fighters. It would be an interesting to see a very technical fighter against the best in the world.
What Bivol did in the 12th round after that 11th round is pretty remarkable. I see the Canelo fight as 50/50, but my heart and money is on Bivol, he's both technical and tough, and that's a lot for Canelo to overcome at that weight.
@@erickzazueta3167 It'll have to be monopoly money these days with Covid all my work has vanished... ha, but I like Canelo, so no hard feelings here... just think Bivol has right combo of strength and smarts to give Canelo a real challenge
Gary Risoto did a great job refereeing this fight. No shenanigans, no bs, kept the fight in the rules. More refs like this are needed In The sport, he always had control of the ring.

bivol comletely outclassed joe smith jr. and i have a feeling bivol will outclass canelo as well but not in the same sense bivol did here. i believe bivol will have the power to discourage canelo from sitting on his punches. such a tough fight for canelo though man.
frustrates me to see joe smiths talent go to waste at times. Joe smith jr has incredible strength, crazy long reach and some dog in him but would love to see a new trainer get ahold of him to add some new tricks to his skill set(which is no disrespect to his current trainers).
@@jaysboxingchannel6233 yes if smith say had bivols skills hed ptobably beat everyone at 175 including beterbiev. smith has proven power at 175 but man he likes to fight. thats why i gave so mich credit to bivol when he beat joe smith smith jr. and thats why its hard for me to see caneli hutting bivol because i dont believe canelo has more power than joe smith. and bivol is said to hit harder than ggg and be stronger than ggg. f canelo not pnlg beats bivol but k.os him than that is a majot accomplishment for canelo because bivol is in his prime. iys gonna be a great year for boxing fans.
I think Joe's biggest problem was that he had trouble finding the range and it made his jab completely useless. I think if he would have stepped into his jabs he would have had a lot more success
@@murozman He looked WAY better this past weekend vs. Eleider Alvarez. I couldn't believe how much he's improved. Looked sharp, really boxed fundamentally sound.
@@thomasferrarojr.9772 I completely agree. I was pleasantly surprised. Massive improvements there as a pressure fighter. Needs to move his head more though. Too easy to hit still. He should stay away from Beterbiev that's for sure.
Not even a mark on his face or body. Notably all of his victories like that. He is very patient before unleashing attacks. Canelo will struggle and probably get hurt!
Classic matador and bull matchup. Bivol fights almost exactly like another great Russian fighter named Kostya Tszyu! Excellent balance and footwork, constant pressure and can punch going backwards or laterally. Smith is strictly straight ahead and pretty much has to plant and throw plus having only a mediocre jab. Bivol has that "educated left hand" as one great trainer use to say. And punches in combinations!
Did you see his last few fights. He's used his jab much more and his has been really effective at setting up other shots and combos. He seems to keep improving.
@@crisjones9344 It took Canelo too long to stop Saunders and Plant. And only did so cuz they tired. Canelo will be carrying more extra weight. Bivol is used to moving around at 175. Nelo aint. Bivol heritage..Russian and Korean are something to consider. They dont quit like other races do!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The DAZN commentators said this same thing early on but it's not that accurate. He actually does incorporate it when he needs to. He broke down Pascal to the body just fine and that was one fight prior to this one. He was probably just so unbothered by Smith's pressure that he didn't feel a need to slow him down at all.
Bivol completely dominated a guy with power, Joe Smith Jr, and completely dominated a guy with slick boxing skill in Sullivan Barrera. That is the reason Canelo wont fight him.
Canelo is too small for 175 man, tell me why Bivol doesn't try to move up to cruiserweight ? He walk at 210 lbs but he won't cause he would be on disadvantage.
@@misaelestrada5370 was he too small to fight Kovalev? true, i think Kovalev was at a disadvantage fighting only 2 months after a tough fight with Yarde. and as for Bivol, moving up to CW, i could possibly see that in future, but like most fighters, he wants to see if he can get that Canelo fight. big difference moving up 2 divisions which is 15 lb difference, and between LHW and CW, its 25 lbs. that would be like Spence moving up to face a SMW. Spence could possibly face and compete against a MW, but not a SMW. and thats only 21 lb difference. They should have another division between 175 and 200.
@@norbertruiz5110 No way, if he wins he's top pound for pound arguably. Be crazy to. I actually think he's favourite as unlike Kovalev he's not shot and as well as the size, he has skills too. Not on the level of Canelo, but he's in his prime and still hungry. Maybe a bridge too far for Canelo.
no. becus canelo fought much bigger guys than Bivol and won. it’s about Canelo getting tired becus he was on a vegan diet. he’s 5’8 and went to 175, he is going to get tired. Heart over Height but like we say there’s weight classes for a reason. Bivol was fighting at his comfortable weight
Exacto ,es otro nivel y ha derrotado a rivales mas fuertes y con mas pegada que Canelo. Canelo no deberia de intentar la revancha pues sera noqueado y AHI TERMINARA SU CARRERA. Debe de reconocer que tiene limites y quiza sea un buen tiempo para retirarse, aun sano y con dinero. Mas aun puede apoyar al deporte en su pais como lo hace Kabihb Nurmagedov en Dagestan con su red gimnasios/ academias de lucha, y siendo ahora promotor.

@@MercuryRisingFast I'd take Canelo over Bivol by decision or late KO. Easy to see. Canelo can punch with Bivol but he is better defensively and will move. It will be a masterclass.
@@osbornofili How can Canelo be anyone's favourite fighter baffles me. He is a hack, a cheater and a slimy characterless human being. The judges scored Bivol vs Canelo 113-115. How ridiculous is that?! The dude lost all rounds. Same with other fighters, where Canelo was given the win by the judges. The only reason he is so called best pound for pound is cause his opponents fight 4 fighters. Canelo and his 3 bribed goons scoring the fights. And he has the gall to pretend to be a humble goody goody two shoes when he's corrupt af.

@@BB-gu9kx who he dodging? Cuz clearly none of who U name doing the moves canelo making.. name me the best opponent of who ever u where gonna name and match em against canelo best opponent..
What a great fight. Bivol really demonstrated how much skill he has, terrific pivoting, balance, ring IQ, economy of punches to keep the on-rushing Smith Jr off balance. Smith was a little too jumpy in the early rounds, maybe a combination of taking hard shots and not pacing himself lead him to gas out from the latter middle rounds. I really want to see Bivol in with Beterbiev, even Gvozdyk (though that's not likely as Gvozdyk wouldn't want to risk another loss right after Beterbiev), Browne, Ramirez, heck - this division is so deep I think it's the best division in terms of depth of talent.
48:28 The ref tried to stop the fight. Bivol was pummeling him. This should have been a TKO win seeing that the referee stopped it before the bell rang.
@@flexgado249 Ok, a lot of people do, not long until we find out, my prediction is Beterbiev will begin dismantling Bivol by round 3 and KO him by round 10.
People think Smith can take down Beterbiev?? A powerful puncher is always dangerous but I don't see Beterbiev losing unless he's fighting with his right hand tied behind his back
The thing is that compared to Bivol, Beterbiev doesn’t have much skill. So the fight between smith and beterbiev is gonna be a fight between power punchers, not skilled fighters.
@@torito880 I think you're selling Beterbiev very short. It's surprising how few pro fights both of them have. Bivol faces Canelo Alvarez in May so we'll see just what he can do against a real ring badass.
@@brockh2180 i’m not a new fan bro. I’ve been into the sport of boxing for more than a decade. I still stand by my word, Beterbiev has power but his defense lacks. It’s alrrady been proven. In the few fights he has, he has alrrady been knocked down twice by punches that vould have been avoided against mediocre competition.
I don`t normally like watching technical boxers because they bore me, but not Bivol. He is a marvel ,and unbelievably talented...I think he is the best boxer in a long time..He will be P4P no 1 I am sure.
Should’ve believed everyone who said “he ate Smiths power and Smith has way more power than Canelo”. He walked Canelo down which was dope to see. I hope Beterbiev wins and gets the unification fight with Bivol. Suddenly a very exciting division again.
@@youngmelo3717 :Agreed, Bivol is a small 175 pounder but very fast, tecnical and with a A class defense!.With stronger fighters he should stay away from power punches.

What Bivol did in the 12th round after that 11th round is pretty remarkable. I see the Canelo fight as 50/50, but my heart and money is on Bivol, he's both technical and tough, and that's a lot for Canelo to overcome at that weight.

Gary Risoto did a great job refereeing this fight. No shenanigans, no bs, kept the fight in the rules. More refs like this are needed In The sport, he always had control of the ring.

bivol comletely outclassed joe smith jr. and i have a feeling bivol will outclass canelo as well but not in the same sense bivol did here. i believe bivol will have the power to discourage canelo from sitting on his punches. such a tough fight for canelo though man.
frustrates me to see joe smiths talent go to waste at times. Joe smith jr has incredible strength, crazy long reach and some dog in him but would love to see a new trainer get ahold of him to add some new tricks to his skill set(which is no disrespect to his current trainers).
@@jaysboxingchannel6233 yes if smith say had bivols skills hed ptobably beat everyone at 175 including beterbiev. smith has proven power at 175 but man he likes to fight. thats why i gave so mich credit to bivol when he beat joe smith smith jr. and thats why its hard for me to see caneli hutting bivol because i dont believe canelo has more power than joe smith. and bivol is said to hit harder than ggg and be stronger than ggg. f canelo not pnlg beats bivol but k.os him than that is a majot accomplishment for canelo because bivol is in his prime. iys gonna be a great year for boxing fans.

У Дмитрия очень крепкая нервная система! Это очень ценное в боксе.

I think Joe's biggest problem was that he had trouble finding the range and it made his jab completely useless. I think if he would have stepped into his jabs he would have had a lot more success
you took the words outta my mouth
Smith has no idea how to use his height and reach. Fights like a shorter fighter.
Bs Bivol dominated him in every way
@@murozman He looked WAY better this past weekend vs. Eleider Alvarez. I couldn't believe how much he's improved. Looked sharp, really boxed fundamentally sound.
@@thomasferrarojr.9772 I completely agree. I was pleasantly surprised. Massive improvements there as a pressure fighter. Needs to move his head more though. Too easy to hit still. He should stay away from Beterbiev that's for sure.
Wow this is going to be a way tougher fight for canelo than plant, Would of been, Bivol is a beast!!
Bivol is an intelligent beast
Not even a mark on his face or body. Notably all of his victories like that. He is very patient before unleashing attacks. Canelo will struggle and probably get hurt!
Let’s see if his body can take canelos power we’ve seen them tall boys fall to him before🤭😬
@@thexmahdi47xpnw70 you were saying 😂
Bivol has amazing ring IQ
Classic matador and bull matchup. Bivol fights almost exactly like another great Russian fighter named Kostya Tszyu! Excellent balance and footwork, constant pressure and can punch going backwards or laterally. Smith is strictly straight ahead and pretty much has to plant and throw plus having only a mediocre jab. Bivol has that "educated left hand" as one great trainer use to say. And punches in combinations!
Did you see his last few fights. He's used his jab much more and his has been really effective at setting up other shots and combos. He seems to keep improving.
@@crisjones9344 It took Canelo too long to stop Saunders and Plant. And only did so cuz they tired. Canelo will be carrying more extra weight. Bivol is used to moving around at 175. Nelo aint. Bivol heritage..Russian and Korean are something to consider. They dont quit like other races do!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Bivol vs Smith 12 rounds....Berteviev vs Smith 1.75 rounds....Enough said !
cruiserweight Zurdo also need 12 rounds. that means the punch of Beterbiev is much2x stronger than Zurdo 190lbs.
Bivol has excellent balance
Bivol needs to add body shots to his arsenal. He is a great fighter nonetheless 👊🏾
The DAZN commentators said this same thing early on but it's not that accurate. He actually does incorporate it when he needs to. He broke down Pascal to the body just fine and that was one fight prior to this one. He was probably just so unbothered by Smith's pressure that he didn't feel a need to slow him down at all.
@@MercuryRisingFast 10 more seconds in the 10th and it would have been sleepy time for bivol lol
I agree need more man down if he was persistant to the body
And head movement.
Totally agree Bivol needs to add body shots to his arsenal. Would definitely give him even a better chance against Canelo.
Bivol's technique is beautiful to watch.
16:01 that overhand right by Joe Smith jr could’ve been devastating had he managed to pressure him more soundly

Bivol completely dominated a guy with power, Joe Smith Jr, and completely dominated a guy with slick boxing skill in Sullivan Barrera. That is the reason Canelo wont fight him.

Canelo is too small for 175 man, tell me why Bivol doesn't try to move up to cruiserweight ? He walk at 210 lbs but he won't cause he would be on disadvantage.
@@misaelestrada5370 was he too small to fight Kovalev? true, i think Kovalev was at a disadvantage fighting only 2 months after a tough fight with Yarde. and as for Bivol, moving up to CW, i could possibly see that in future, but like most fighters, he wants to see if he can get that Canelo fight. big difference moving up 2 divisions which is 15 lb difference, and between LHW and CW, its 25 lbs. that would be like Spence moving up to face a SMW. Spence could possibly face and compete against a MW, but not a SMW. and thats only 21 lb difference. They should have another division between 175 and 200.

@@norbertruiz5110 No way, if he wins he's top pound for pound arguably. Be crazy to. I actually think he's favourite as unlike Kovalev he's not shot and as well as the size, he has skills too. Not on the level of Canelo, but he's in his prime and still hungry. Maybe a bridge too far for Canelo.
yep
@@norbertruiz5110 Who is gonna back out?
So it is not just about size, look at Bivol against bigger guys how he handles them skilfully.
no. becus canelo fought much bigger guys than Bivol and won. it’s about Canelo getting tired becus he was on a vegan diet. he’s 5’8 and went to 175, he is going to get tired. Heart over Height but like we say there’s weight classes for a reason. Bivol was fighting at his comfortable weight

Quién viendo a éste gran boxeador después de dar cátedra a Canelo. En qué momento pensó Canelo ganar a éstos tipos en ése peso.
Tienes toda la razon, Canelo que vuelva a su peso porque si sigue aqui lo van a matar
Solo queria tragar y pistear para llegar a ese peso xD
Exacto ,es otro nivel y ha derrotado a rivales mas fuertes y con mas pegada que Canelo. Canelo no deberia de intentar la revancha pues sera noqueado y AHI TERMINARA SU CARRERA. Debe de reconocer que tiene limites y quiza sea un buen tiempo para retirarse, aun sano y con dinero. Mas aun puede apoyar al deporte en su pais como lo hace Kabihb Nurmagedov en Dagestan con su red gimnasios/ academias de lucha, y siendo ahora promotor.
desde Colombia yo creo q como dicen los mexicanos cuál es la bronca de le tienen a canelo cuál fue la cátedra q le dió ese correlon q no se paró pa peliar casi en ningún momento la veces q se paró era x q sabía q canelo estaba cansado tanto q corrió ese tipo es asta aburrido pelando
en realidad no ví cuál fue esa cátedra x como peliador es pésimo yo creo q asido el peor peliador q atendido canelo no sé para canelo nesesito un peliador q pele no ese aburrido ví la pele no ví cal fu esa cátedra

@@clightning9703 Joe Smith landed one decent punch Vs Bivol and got outboxed the entire fight. Ramirez has beaten nobody at 168 or 175. Bivol and Beterbiev are clear 1&2 in the division.
@Eduardo Sanchez I would love to see Spence Crawford, will it happen though? Charlo is at middleweight so don't see Canelo fighting him anytime soon, would like to see charlo unify Vs golovkin or andrade then it might get Canelo to see it as a worthwhile fight.

You can always tell which fighter was supposed to win by the commentator. Even at the end, the one guy would not get off Joseph Smith's nuts.
@@MercuryRisingFast I'd take Canelo over Bivol by decision or late KO. Easy to see. Canelo can punch with Bivol but he is better defensively and will move. It will be a masterclass.

Well done you got it right
You were right fight was tough canelo has more work to do this is my fav fighter now after canelo

@@osbornofili How can Canelo be anyone's favourite fighter baffles me. He is a hack, a cheater and a slimy characterless human being. The judges scored Bivol vs Canelo 113-115. How ridiculous is that?! The dude lost all rounds. Same with other fighters, where Canelo was given the win by the judges. The only reason he is so called best pound for pound is cause his opponents fight 4 fighters. Canelo and his 3 bribed goons scoring the fights. And he has the gall to pretend to be a humble goody goody two shoes when he's corrupt af.
If Canelo would’ve picked to fight Benavides, then everybody would be like “why he ducking Bivol??” 🤦 can’t please everyone when you are on a quest for greatness.

What a great fight. Bivol really demonstrated how much skill he has, terrific pivoting, balance, ring IQ, economy of punches to keep the on-rushing Smith Jr off balance. Smith was a little too jumpy in the early rounds, maybe a combination of taking hard shots and not pacing himself lead him to gas out from the latter middle rounds.
I really want to see Bivol in with Beterbiev, even Gvozdyk (though that's not likely as Gvozdyk wouldn't want to risk another loss right after Beterbiev), Browne, Ramirez, heck - this division is so deep I think it's the best division in terms of depth of talent.

He’s not taking Beterbievs power, he’s going to have to fight on the outside and not let Beterbiev close the distance.
