Artur Beterbiev vs Dmitry Bivol Prediction
We liked Bivol before the first fight and we feel he is the one that can make the most adjustments to change the outcome of this fight. That will be easier said than done however.
Beterbiev will still command the respect with his power and he will hope to slow Bivol where possible.
We marginally favour a different decision this time around and fancy Bivol to edge a really narrow points decision but it really is one that could go either way once again.
