At a perfect 20-0, all of them inside the distance, it confirmed what we already knew.

This is the second most important fight that has to be made in 2024 behind Benavidez vs Alvarez

I'm not sure he is the best but he is the most unique fighter of this generation. A fitting end to his run at 175 is undisputed, nothing else. No disrespect to Bivol but there are plenty of 12-round technically sound boxers out there.

Beterbiev I would classify him as the most dangerous boxer in the game right now. Idk how that translates to his P4P ranking, but I’d say he’s top 10 for sure.

Great card all around.

The biggest issue is seeing how long Beterbiev and Bivol have been champions in the same division and haven’t fought each other. That’s a problem. Shouldn’t be that way.

I understand you got mandatories and “showcase” defenses, promotional issues and behind the scenes business, and that’s all well and good. But champions should fight each other. That should be made a priority in within the sport.
