Beterbiev is one scary man, his looks alone and then his body, built like a tank. But we have the tall Bivol, with great IQ and again, upset Canelo when everyone write him off on that fight and says that he can't beat Canelo.
It's really hard to pick for now, but we all have our favorite already here in Beterbiev.
The odds are identical, a perfect 50/50. Snippet from Unibet:
Doesn't happen very often in boxing.
My favourite is Bivol. Beterbiev is scary indeed, but you're only as good as your opponent allows you, and Dmitrii has what it takes to stop him.
Honestly, I think it could be a better fight than Fury Vs Usyk.
As I have posted on the other board,
a. Beterbiev is the obvious heavier puncher, and recently he still shows that he can stop or knockout everyone in the LHW
b. Bivol is the younger fighter, taller and have the reach advantage perhaps. And he has one of the best wins against the cash cow in Canelo Alvarez. So at least we have seen him how his style can go against a aggressive fighter. Not saying that Beterbiev and Canelo has the same style, but both loves to attack and aggressive and Bivol was able to neutralize it by his volume punching.
But I thought that Beterbiev is going to be the favorite here, slight maybe, but the favorite. So I'm surprised that it's a 50:50 fight for sport bookies. Maybe they have thought that Bivol has beaten Canelo before and so they make the odds close as possible.
