Great win for Rafferty, amazing that 2 judges had that level though.

I know! Couldn't believe that, and the other judge probably had it right, Turner four up.

Massive fight Saturday and could be one of the fights of the decade for proper boxing fans . Beterbiev versus Bivol in Saudi is the real deal and knock spots off of hr hype jobs we see from the uk .

I think Bivol is good enough to stay away from the knockout blow and just pick him off and win on points like you say. Beterbiev looked like he was in trouble against Yarde before knocking him down, and was behind on the scorecards. I don't think Bivol would get into that situation in a fight as he's technically so good.

I have Bivol by a jab masterclass.

Really looking forward to it ......

I think so too and I would also love to see Eubank Jr put on his ass . Overrated and dislike him immensely. Says we haven’t seen all he’s got to offer. That is the problem, we should have by now

I have a feeling he stays inactive on purpose or through choice.
Seems like he'd rather talk a good fight than actually have one
