Well have not seen the whole fight, but by the highlights that were released, Beterbiev edged it for sure.. but again, that was only the highlights, not the entire story. Have to watch the full thing when its released in like 2 years time.
I had bivol leading into round 10 but he committed the cardinal sin of letting beterbiev run him down from round 10-12 where optically it looked like beterbiev had seized control..It was in bivols grasp but he looked like he did not have the energy to sustain his attack or thwart the incoming beterbiev…and as for Hearn he needs to shut up…every time it’s a close fight he cries Robbery…madrimov and now this…it was close and if either won or a draw I would not have a problem..magnificent fight
The fact that he lost the biggest fight of his life and is battling a brutal family court case but is still speaking in a humble, respectful, and calm manner proves he's a gentleman and warrior inside and outside the ring. Such a humble, patient, and likeable guy.
@@trappz_io2620 Leave the defamatory statement out of the equation. How about you, as a boxing consumer, stick to making opinions regarding boxing? Let the judicial system in his country do its job regarding whether a crime has been committed or not, that's not your job.
hearing Bivol's answers, his demeanor ...despite the outcome of the fight, I've become a bigger fan of him than ever. the guy is simply such a cool customer
Glazing is crazy. He's just a plain normal guy. People out here treating him like he's Socrates and marcus Aurelius' child. Did you expect him to cry on camera or something?
It’s not just a post fight interview, he is dropping some diamonds, a philosophy for a stable and peaceful life which is one of the highest forms of life style….❤️

Haha canelo isn’t even a huge puncher at 168 couldn’t stop Callum smith for example imagine canelo trying to stop yarde at 175 lol this is hilarious you can’t even compare canelo power to Artur
Thank you for your replie ..im not english speaker but i understand what bivol try to say and this american man don't get it ..its crazy..bivol here gave credit to arthur because he throw harder punches without trying ..ever single punche is hard not like canelo that he put all his energy in one punch and the other punches not heavy as the first one
This was more of a master class on mindset and how to succeed in life. You can use what he said and apply it to anything. Especially the part of treating it like your last fight and losing is made in the mind.
This is it right here, I was already a fan but this interview just put him into my top 5 favorite fighters of all time. 90% of other boxers would be crying about a robbery or whatever but the man just gave the entire world a life lesson in humbleness and stoicism. What an absolute legend Bivol is.

This gentleman is a pleasure to watch. In all the controversy that has unravelled, there were no swearing obscenities at his opponent. No tattoo covered, bulging veins-monster, clenching their fists, shouting and screaming, as to what they're going to do next, who they're going to kill, etc, etc. This, what I've just described, is what we call normal in 2024.

@meisteremm bruh….did notice Beterbiev made bivol run backwards in their last rounds? Did you see bivol face after the fight? Beterbiev was the aggressor, that’s why the judges gave him the win, period.
@meisteremm dude are you blind? Go see bivol face after the fight! He blocked all but bivol punches was meaningless for Arthur, grow up. Bivol was literally on survival mode, I know you love bivol but don’t be delusional.
@meisteremm nah we both should grow up because we arguing for bs, now joke aside that’s your perspective and I respect that.

In boxing is not only about points or punches, is about to be effective and that’s what Beterbiev did.
What an interview! What insights. How can you not love this guy. And doing this interview just a day after the biggest hardest fight of his life is quite staggering. His demeanour and mindset is simply amazing. Bivol is a true Champion.

Man win or loss I will forever idolize this guy
Bivol is really INTELLIGENT AND THE WAY HE UNDERSTANDS BOXING IS AWESOME. He clearly is a student of the game. He should become an analyst after his career. I would love to see him breakdown fights. He has a good understanding of the intricacies of boxing
@@thedon3071 To me, he sounds like he's a smart talented student who's making great progress. I wouldn't call him fluent quite yet. Splitting hairs though. Doesn't matter what we think.
@@cedmo7857 his english is way better than Beterbiev by a mile. I couldn't understand nothing from Beterbiev in the ring yesterday and had to ask him questions multiple times in a different way.
bivol is absolutely the pinnacle of what a champion should be, and how a champion should act, and how a champion should think. watching this made me have a whole newfound admiration for this man.
What a class act by such a composed fighter. He’s extremely calm and his IQ is probably one of the highest IQs in boxing ever. Definitely one of the greatest fighters to ever do it.
He’s got great ability to box, but I believe he’s lacking in the IQ department. He overcooked his combo is the 6-7 where artur countered him and controlled the rest of the round. It was downhill from there
@@ZackP2139Right and with that being said, I don’t think he’ll ever beat Beterbiev! Every fighter at one point encounters that one fighter that has our number! I know I did!
I love the way he breaks down the way Beterbiev and Canelo transfers their power in the ring. He is right. Canelo loads up n telegraphs his shots. Beterbiev is very tight short shots from his chin to the target no loading and still so heavy handed.
Canelo needs to load up goofy artur power is natural he doesn’t need to and he was also bigger than a canelo who started at 140… I can tell that you never boxed
@@JoseMartinez-te1irthat's right beterviev would destroy Canelo in a fight lol He better not even try to fight beterviev And to fight beterviev he needs to earn it beterviev has already spoken About that.
@@JoseMartinez-te1irCanelo started at 147😂 lol Beterbiev was at thd olympics on HEAVYWEIGHT obviously their power is not the same just like Wilder or Bakole hits harder than Beterbiev
Deep respect for this man. I had him up 7-5, a draw possible. But the mental clarity, even after being declared an unjust loss for him, shows his future is bright. True champion breed.
If you see it carefully, watch again. There was one round, that can be given 10-8 to Beterbiev. The Commentators were favoring Bivol, the replays after the round, were about Bivol hitting Beterbiev. Every replay same. Never ever showed the replay of Beterbiev hitting Bivol. Why no one has observed this? This made everyone think Bivol is winning.
Rounds 1-2 Bivol middle of the fight was pretty even Champion ship Rounds 11-12 went to beterbiev with more punching output and non stop pressure the whole fight. Bivol basically went into defensive mode and didn’t want to trade punches last couple rounds which in the judges eyes had him loose the fight. Just because Bivol was throwing fancy combinations here there doesn’t mean he was winning Arthur output was more active overall the whole fight.
This is the best interview I have ever heard and got to know Dimitri’s life philosophy not only for fights and career. Amazing insight and impressive to trying to not let emotion take control of your life. High level mentality! ❤
Probably ur BEST interview..Just awesome....very laid back low key..perfection n insight on the mental aspect and he was watching g SRL fights from the 80s for learning inspiration...unreal
I fuckin love Bivol. Extremely intelligent and humble. I don’t know why the interviewer was trying to act like he couldn’t understand that Canelo loads up on 1 massive shot though lol.
@@Sypophercy Your comprehension needs some work my friend. Never gave an indication or measure about being bothered. Anything short of worship seems to really bother you certified canelo lovers though.
How can you hate this man? Performed excellently, outboxed and outbrained his opponent, got robbed and still so humble and stoic. Always trying to learn and become better, true spirit and mentality of a champion.
This is actually one of the best boxing interviews I've ever seen. Bivol broke boxing down to a science that we can all understand. Things that I never even considered part of the game as a long term boxing fan.
This interviewer just doesn't understand......smh. Bivol is saying Beterbiev could probably hit way harder than Canelo if he wanted to. But he chooses not to put 100% of his power into a single punch
If someone said the exact same thing about Crawford hitting harder and more explosively than ggg you’d all freaking out over it, but because it’s Canelo and you guys have Canelo derangement syndrome, of course you downplay it.
This is how you conduct yourself during an interview. This half Korean half Moldovan Russian guy speaks better English than any black American boxer you will ever see interviewed. No cliches, no platitudes, not one “at the end of the day” or “it is what it is” no lip licking, no “ya feel me” or “like I said man”. Just a honest humble man taking his loss in stride and giving the fans some insight into his mind and answering the interviewers questions honestly
He didn’t say Canelo punch harder. He said they have different style. He did say Canelo punch feels harder because he uses all his strength for a single punch.
@@N54htmare no basically all of beterbiev punches are hard, canela loads up everything into a punch which makes it seems like he punches harder but in reality if Beterbiev was to load up he would definitely punch way harder
@@TonyHoe97 but he didn’t therefore Canelo punched harder in their fight lmfao Canelo has moved up 5x and Beterbiev has moved up 0x have Beterbiev fight a HW like DDD and he gets flatlined facts is Canelo still having that much power for a smaller guy is insane Canelo haters are the worst can’t give the man his credit
@@martin4670 Bivol was hanging on for dear life the whole fight. It was 50/50 going to the 9th. But after 10 11 and 12 it was clear as day Beterbiev takes it home. 8-4 or 7-5 Beterbiev. It wasn't as close as many fanboys want it to be. Watch again with turned off commentars and highlights. See for yourself.
He could wasily beat jai opteia he has many years left in boxing , artur will retire soon, and he can what he always wanted to be a undisputed and possibly even in cruiser weight
Beterbiev & Bivol must be the most cold blooded boxers that I've ever seen. It's a job to them. They are completely self contained within their fight bubble.
Wow. What a great interview! The interviewer did a nice job. This interviewer truly respects the fighters and always brings out their personalities when he interviews...I can listen to Bivol all day. He is very intelligent and is a master boxer!
@@Slinder.man1 i thought Beterbiev won. But in the rounds where Bivol won, Bivol was whipping the shit out of Beterbiev in classy fashion. But when Beterbiev was winning, Bivol wasn't returning jack shit. So when each fighter traded control, one had an easier time in control.
@@iaqh I agree, almost all of them fight the same. They need to have better defense and better movement. Something like Bam. They focus too much on chasing and going for the body.
the “bivol ran” and the “beterbiev got schooled” comments I’ve seen are insanity! Great fight close fight both guys so humble, so classy and act like real men. American fighters with their loud mouths can learn something. 🥊
I scored the fght 4 times, twice without commentary, and I could see a draw, but I do not see Bivol losing, though those few swing rounds and especially rounds 10-12 could have done it. Yes, the fight was very close, but I felt he fought Beterbiev in spectacular fashion. I wish boxing judges understood how to judge extraordinary defense. Many seem to judge only on offense. Bivol is excellent and mindful of both. Good interview, Marcos. I appreciate your trying to get solid answers and also allow some laughs and being lighthearted, and Bivol deserves to have some laughs. I hope Bivol at least understands how truly elite he is, and I appreciate his very zen way of thinking, and his thinking is uplifting. I wish Dmitri all the happiness and peace in the world. He's long been my favorite fighter, and the fact that he is so fan friendly makes him impossible to not like as a person.
Dam. Bivol’s words are great. He wants to perfect his craft even more. Makes no excuses and says he has to do better. What a gladiator. Can’t wait for that rematch.
Even beterbiev had a hard time with bivol, and people still don't give canelo credit for being in the ring with a jr. Heavyweight like bivol. Only a moron would call bivol a "cherry pick gone wrong "...
Your right people have the cowardice nerve to call him slanderous names when most of them haven’t even had a single fight ever . Canelo should of never been at that weight class he still choose to try and reach for greatness!
they have double standards for boxers that hail from Europe and Mexico. When you're from Europe you have to do less to get more credit. When you're from Mexico you have to do more for less credit.
@saulortega8633 because Canelo was cherry picking when he fought Bivol..everyone thought Canelo would win...Canelo doesn't get credit for being exposed..he gets credit for being schooled and being made to look like an amateur
@dan_4531 don't assume...I didn't say Bivol was a cherry pick...I said Canelo was cherry picking when he fought Bivol but then found out when Bivol exposed him
Classy guy. A very honest assessment without histrionics. A real credit to the sport. I watched the highlights and can't really say who won. Beterbiev pressured but Bivol certainly held his ground. They were very evenly matched. No disrespecting or bad mouthing. Pure class.
Refreshing hearing a boxer talk about the science of boxing. Most fighters hold back how they think because they don't wanna show people how they think, but Bivol does a tell all here. 👌
Just going to go ahead and say that Eastern Europe produced some incredible ready made pros through their amateur system.... These guys have such pedigree before turning pro, between the ages of 25-30, totally different than Western fighters who are turning pro as teenagers, and are not nearly as sound fundamentally as these guys... Its been such a pleasure to watch the likes of GGG, Loma, Usyk, Bivol, Beterbiev etc over the last decade... and now Madrimov coming through also... They've also tasted defeat, they come up in the most competitive amateur system, that's why a loss never breaks them.. Beterbiev and Usyk fought in the amateur's in 2007 in their early 20s, someone lost that fight, and it meant a lot...
I love this guy he is straightforward with his answers and so sincere. There is a saying, "You cannot put down a good man." He's like that, a great champ In and out of the ring. I hope he gets the rematch. After this interview, I'm his new fan.
What a great interview and what a great lad is Bivol! I still think that that fight was at least a DRAW !!!!! YOU can't not love him as hes so open and genuine! The skills of Bivol and the amazing footwork were supreme! THE IMMEDIATE REMATCH IS A MUST! THANK YOU FOR THE FANTASTIC INTERVIEW AND GREAT QUESTIONS AND THANKS TO BIVOL FOR GREAT ANSWERS!
Fantastic interview. Best analysis by a fighter I have ever seen. I am more impressed with Bivol after watching this video than I was before the fight. All the best to you, Mr. Bivol, in all your future endeavors.
Beterbiev HITS WAY HARDER THAN CANELO AND HE DOES NOT EVEN DO A REAL FULL SWING. He is more compact and throws hard on every punch compared to Canelo who puts everything into only one single full swing everytime. WELL SAID and explained by BIVOL.
@@martinavila7401 Canelo is a natural 160 at least. His weight fits well at 168 also, his cut is much easier at 168 and hes 185 + on fight night. he might be short but he carries a lot of weight.
Love your interviews with Dmitriy. You guys now know each other well and interviews seem very relaxed and honest from both sides. Bivol class act, hope to see more great fights from him.
The more I see of this warrior the more respect just keeps increasing and increasing. I haven’t heard another modern boxer speak so level-headed, humble+confident, and all around just an exemplary of what is obviously a rock-solid human being. Crawford has that quality too. Such a stand-up dude. EVEN in DEFEAT. Folks that ain’t easy. I can’t speak to allegations about him that I am only reading about in these comments but the 3 shift interviews and this longer interview make him seem like a solid dude. Hope I haven’t spoken too soon. Wouldn’t be the first time.
He didn't say Canelo hits harder, he said Canelo fully loaded up on a single shot, Beterbiev doesn't do this, if Beterbiev did then he would hit harder than Canelo obvz
Who did you think WON? Beterbiev or Bivol? Sound off below!
BETERBIEV FOR SURE but it was extremely close

@@propraveronOkay, Artur Beterbiev is such a humble and respectful athlete. Is that what you wanted to hear, or not hear? smh
Agree. Neither of them blow their own trumpets.
Bivol is really INTELLIGENT AND THE WAY HE UNDERSTANDS BOXING IS AWESOME. He clearly is a student of the game. He should become an analyst after his career. I would love to see him breakdown fights. He has a good understanding of the intricacies of boxing
hed have to greatly improve his english
@@cedmo7857 He's already improving very quickly. He'll be fluent before you know it.
@@standarddisclaimerhe sounds fluid in English to me
@@thedon3071 To me, he sounds like he's a smart talented student who's making great progress. I wouldn't call him fluent quite yet. Splitting hairs though. Doesn't matter what we think.
@@cedmo7857 his english is way better than Beterbiev by a mile. I couldn't understand nothing from Beterbiev in the ring yesterday and had to ask him questions multiple times in a different way.
bivol is absolutely the pinnacle of what a champion should be, and how a champion should act, and how a champion should think. watching this made me have a whole newfound admiration for this man.
What a class act by such a composed fighter. He’s extremely calm and his IQ is probably one of the highest IQs in boxing ever. Definitely one of the greatest fighters to ever do it.
He’s got great ability to box, but I believe he’s lacking in the IQ department. He overcooked his combo is the 6-7 where artur countered him and controlled the rest of the round. It was downhill from there
@@ZackP2139Right and with that being said, I don’t think he’ll ever beat Beterbiev! Every fighter at one point encounters that one fighter that has our number! I know I did!
@@StopCensorshiphe already beat beterbiev
I love the way he breaks down the way Beterbiev and Canelo transfers their power in the ring. He is right. Canelo loads up n telegraphs his shots. Beterbiev is very tight short shots from his chin to the target no loading and still so heavy handed.
Canelo needs to load up goofy artur power is natural he doesn’t need to and he was also bigger than a canelo who started at 140… I can tell that you never boxed
@@JoseMartinez-te1irhe didnt say anything wrong lmao why you so pressed😂😂😂
@@JoseMartinez-te1irthat's right beterviev would destroy Canelo in a fight lol
He better not even try to fight beterviev
And to fight beterviev he needs to earn it beterviev has already spoken About that.
@@JoseMartinez-te1irCanelo started at 147😂 lol Beterbiev was at thd olympics on HEAVYWEIGHT obviously their power is not the same just like Wilder or Bakole hits harder than Beterbiev
Exactly.....I felt like beterbiev wasn't even really punching.....maybe half punching
Such a humble guy man no excuses, didn’t throw any disrespect, kept it real. That’s why we like Bivol, true champ, people know it🫶🏻
we don't do anything, copy cat Hivemind McGee
@@donsimons9810 ?
This guy is so likeable wish him all the best in he’s next fight
Deep respect for this man. I had him up 7-5, a draw possible. But the mental clarity, even after being declared an unjust loss for him, shows his future is bright. True champion breed.
If you see it carefully, watch again. There was one round, that can be given 10-8 to Beterbiev. The Commentators were favoring Bivol, the replays after the round, were about Bivol hitting Beterbiev. Every replay same. Never ever showed the replay of Beterbiev hitting Bivol. Why no one has observed this? This made everyone think Bivol is winning.
@@AzherSiddiquiwhat round specifically?
@@AzherSiddiquibro, you can only give 10-8 on a knockdown. You good?
@@AzherSiddiqui 10-8? Where?
Rounds 1-2 Bivol middle of the fight was pretty even Champion ship Rounds 11-12 went to beterbiev with more punching output and non stop pressure the whole fight. Bivol basically went into defensive mode and didn’t want to trade punches last couple rounds which in the judges eyes had him loose the fight. Just because Bivol was throwing fancy combinations here there doesn’t mean he was winning Arthur output was more active overall the whole fight.
This was super insightful, i really enjoy hearing Bivol talk about his philosophy and process
This one of the best interviews I've ever seen. Thanks man. Answered all my questions
This is the best interview I have ever heard and got to know Dimitri’s life philosophy not only for fights and career. Amazing insight and impressive to trying to not let emotion take control of your life. High level mentality! ❤
Probably ur BEST interview..Just awesome....very laid back low key..perfection n insight on the mental aspect and he was watching g SRL fights from the 80s for learning inspiration...unreal
Bro, your English is coming along excellently.
The rematch is going to be enormous. It's boiling over an it's only a day after.
I fuckin love Bivol. Extremely intelligent and humble. I don’t know why the interviewer was trying to act like he couldn’t understand that Canelo loads up on 1 massive shot though lol.
🤡
Why does that bother you so much? Lol certified canelo hater..
@@Sypophercy Your comprehension needs some work my friend. Never gave an indication or measure about being bothered. Anything short of worship seems to really bother you certified canelo lovers though.
@@Sypophercy Canelo fan, stop playing victim. It’s truth not hate. In fact, Canelo deserves to be hated. Ducking. Cherry picking. Steroids. Excuses.
I think it was more of a surprise something no one expected.
How can you hate this man? Performed excellently, outboxed and outbrained his opponent, got robbed and still so humble and stoic. Always trying to learn and become better, true spirit and mentality of a champion.
So much wisdom in his answers. Bivol, I am forever a fan!! #undisputed
I love this guys attitude and his character. He’s real!
This is actually one of the best boxing interviews I've ever seen. Bivol broke boxing down to a science that we can all understand. Things that I never even considered part of the game as a long term boxing fan.
This interviewer just doesn't understand......smh. Bivol is saying Beterbiev could probably hit way harder than Canelo if he wanted to. But he chooses not to put 100% of his power into a single punch
He does actually understand perfectly what Bivol was trying to say. He responded the way he did for this regarded clickbait title.
yeah because he wants power in all of shots not just one but yes
@@ronthedon_ Are you sure? Because he asked "Canelo hits harder than Beterbiev and he's the smaller guy?"
If someone said the exact same thing about Crawford hitting harder and more explosively than ggg you’d all freaking out over it, but because it’s Canelo and you guys have Canelo derangement syndrome, of course you downplay it.
@@JA-jx1hk Who thinks Bud hits harder than Gennady? lol I guess that is just as silly as canelo vs Beterbiev.
Bivol has a chill personality and is an excellent boxer. More down to earth than I originally thought.
This is how you conduct yourself during an interview. This half Korean half Moldovan Russian guy speaks better English than any black American boxer you will ever see interviewed. No cliches, no platitudes, not one “at the end of the day” or “it is what it is” no lip licking, no “ya feel me” or “like I said man”. Just a honest humble man taking his loss in stride and giving the fans some insight into his mind and answering the interviewers questions honestly
He didn’t say Canelo punch harder. He said they have different style. He did say Canelo punch feels harder because he uses all his strength for a single punch.
So basically Canelo punched harder? Lmao
@@N54htmare no basically all of beterbiev punches are hard, canela loads up everything into a punch which makes it seems like he punches harder but in reality if Beterbiev was to load up he would definitely punch way harder
@@N54htmareno because Beterbiev doesn’t use all his strength on his punches; that’s his style; if he did he’s probably the bigger puncher
@@TonyHoe97 but he didn’t therefore Canelo punched harder in their fight lmfao Canelo has moved up 5x and Beterbiev has moved up 0x have Beterbiev fight a HW like DDD and he gets flatlined facts is Canelo still having that much power for a smaller guy is insane
Canelo haters are the worst can’t give the man his credit
@@N54htmare😂😂😂😂😂
The way he explains various ways to deal with different boxing styles is phenomenal. He is technical, fundamentally sound, and well educated.
One of the most respectful man very good fighter one of the best.
Wow, great interview!!! Congratulations.
He took that L like a man no whining or what so ever, mad respect for this guy!!!
Most importantly he isn't suing
Haney should take notes!
@@juniorolivares450he lost on every measure except 1. why would he sue?
He took a gamble on boxing saudi corruption. He couldnt beat both. The difference in skill was huge on fightnight
@@martin4670 Bivol was hanging on for dear life the whole fight. It was 50/50 going to the 9th. But after 10 11 and 12 it was clear as day Beterbiev takes it home. 8-4 or 7-5 Beterbiev. It wasn't as close as many fanboys want it to be. Watch again with turned off commentars and highlights. See for yourself.
Wow Bivol is a student of the game! Studying Sugar Ray leading up to the fight shows true passion for the sport - RESPECT!
He is for sure one of the Goats! And his spirit is intact we need a fight 2!!!
💯
He could wasily beat jai opteia he has many years left in boxing , artur will retire soon, and he can what he always wanted to be a undisputed and possibly even in cruiser weight
Beterbiev & Bivol must be the most cold blooded boxers that I've ever seen.
It's a job to them. They are completely self contained within their fight bubble.
Wow. What a great interview! The interviewer did a nice job. This interviewer truly respects the fighters and always brings out their personalities when he interviews...I can listen to Bivol all day. He is very intelligent and is a master boxer!
We need the rematch next!
We need Beterbiev vs Hearn next
Forget it you lost
😂😂😂😂 no you dont win undisputed
It leads to this clown’s ko.
Rematch is needed
Eddie said fighting words to Artur. He needs to make 175 now😂. They have unfinished business
This guys IQ/ intelligence is off the charts
😂😂😂😂 thats why he was running in championship rounds 😂😂
@@MuscularMan008 because he's not stupid enough to stand in front of a hardest puncher in LHW
@@MuscularMan008man you dumb asf, you are braindead!
He has a law degree.
He lost bruh
As a beterbiev fan. Bivol is a rolemodel for us boxers and a great guy id love to see you guys have a rematch
Did u think beterbiev won the fight or Bivol ?
@@Slinder.man1 i thought Beterbiev won. But in the rounds where Bivol won, Bivol was whipping the shit out of Beterbiev in classy fashion. But when Beterbiev was winning, Bivol wasn't returning jack shit. So when each fighter traded control, one had an easier time in control.
@@courdell7426 pak u
@@Slinder.man1it was 7-5 Beterbiev. Arguably even 8-4 if you devour specific aspects of the fight.
Great replies from Bivol. This loss takes nothing away from him.
Good interview. Bivol is a respectable man, wants the rematch so next time there won't be doubts. RUN IT BACK!!!
Bivol, thank you from your fans in Mexico!!!
Mucho gracias 😊😊😊
Fans maybe you the only fan
Dude I'm Mexican and our fighters are disappointing, we will never have a FIoyd or Tank type fighter ever.
@@MiguelMirola doubtful Mexico has the biggest best boxing fan base. Them and the UK just love boxing.
@@iaqh I agree, almost all of them fight the same. They need to have better defense and better movement. Something like Bam. They focus too much on chasing and going for the body.
the “bivol ran” and the “beterbiev got schooled” comments I’ve seen are insanity! Great fight close fight both guys so humble, so classy and act like real men. American fighters with their loud mouths can learn something. 🥊
Amen
Those comments are coming from boxing fans who are casuals no one got schooled both fought a great fight but it was close fight no one got robbed
Don’t forget British ones looool
Benavidez smokes beterbiev and bivol
They’re people who don’t understand the sport, best thing to do is ignore them
I scored the fght 4 times, twice without commentary, and I could see a draw, but I do not see Bivol losing, though those few swing rounds and especially rounds 10-12 could have done it. Yes, the fight was very close, but I felt he fought Beterbiev in spectacular fashion. I wish boxing judges understood how to judge extraordinary defense. Many seem to judge only on offense. Bivol is excellent and mindful of both.
Good interview, Marcos. I appreciate your trying to get solid answers and also allow some laughs and being lighthearted, and Bivol deserves to have some laughs.
I hope Bivol at least understands how truly elite he is, and I appreciate his very zen way of thinking, and his thinking is uplifting. I wish Dmitri all the happiness and peace in the world. He's long been my favorite fighter, and the fact that he is so fan friendly makes him impossible to not like as a person.
Dam. Bivol’s words are great. He wants to perfect his craft even more. Makes no excuses and says he has to do better. What a gladiator. Can’t wait for that rematch.
Even beterbiev had a hard time with bivol, and people still don't give canelo credit for being in the ring with a jr. Heavyweight like bivol. Only a moron would call bivol a "cherry pick gone wrong "...
Facts 💯
Your right people have the cowardice nerve to call him slanderous names when most of them haven’t even had a single fight ever . Canelo should of never been at that weight class he still choose to try and reach for greatness!
It's the definition of a 50/50 fight .
Bivol isnt a big light heavy tho. He can make 168 as he offered to canelo
they have double standards for boxers that hail from Europe and Mexico. When you're from Europe you have to do less to get more credit. When you're from Mexico you have to do more for less credit.
That was a great interview!!! No excuses
Give Bivol credit..he went 12 rounds with Beterbiev without getting knocked down..plus a close fight..we need a rematch !
Why don’t people say that about canelo???hmmm I wonder??
@saulortega8633 because Canelo was cherry picking when he fought Bivol..everyone thought Canelo would win...Canelo doesn't get credit for being exposed..he gets credit for being schooled and being made to look like an amateur
@@MM75955only casuals thought that. true boxing fans knew bivol vs canelo was no cherry pick and canelo may very well lose which he did
@dan_4531 don't assume...I didn't say Bivol was a cherry pick...I said Canelo was cherry picking when he fought Bivol but then found out when Bivol exposed him
Canelo got schooled.
A true gentleman 👏👏👏
Nobody looses a fight like that!!!! Best of luck to him!!!! Looking forward to seeing it again 🥊
no sourness, all class. absolute love of the game and respect for his opponents comes through. very admirable
Absolute legend, so smart, down to earth humble. A great ambassador of the sport.
Man what a guy , what a fighter , can really learn alot from his mentality
Classy guy. A very honest assessment without histrionics. A real credit to the sport.
I watched the highlights and can't really say who won.
Beterbiev pressured but Bivol certainly held his ground. They were very evenly matched.
No disrespecting or bad mouthing.
Pure class.
Refreshing hearing a boxer talk about the science of boxing. Most fighters hold back how they think because they don't wanna show people how they think, but Bivol does a tell all here. 👌
and also tells you why this is not the hard part - that being putting the knowledge into action
Just going to go ahead and say that Eastern Europe produced some incredible ready made pros through their amateur system.... These guys have such pedigree before turning pro, between the ages of 25-30, totally different than Western fighters who are turning pro as teenagers, and are not nearly as sound fundamentally as these guys... Its been such a pleasure to watch the likes of GGG, Loma, Usyk, Bivol, Beterbiev etc over the last decade... and now Madrimov coming through also... They've also tasted defeat, they come up in the most competitive amateur system, that's why a loss never breaks them.. Beterbiev and Usyk fought in the amateur's in 2007 in their early 20s, someone lost that fight, and it meant a lot...
Yes, the European pendulum stance is the foundation of their foot work. Amazing foot work.
Don't forget dervychenko
Cuban boxers are even more savage. It will be interesting to see the upcoming champs here in five years.
I love this guy he is straightforward with his answers and so sincere. There is a saying, "You cannot put down a good man." He's like that, a great champ In and out of the ring. I hope he gets the rematch. After this interview, I'm his new fan.
What a fine, fine, gentleman. The ultimate role model. He'll, be back, fitter and stronger!
God bless.
Best and clearest interview I have seen yet! Keep them coming!
What a great interview and what a great lad is Bivol! I still think that that fight was at least a DRAW !!!!! YOU can't not love him as hes so open and genuine! The skills of Bivol and the amazing footwork were supreme! THE IMMEDIATE REMATCH IS A MUST! THANK YOU FOR THE FANTASTIC INTERVIEW AND GREAT QUESTIONS AND THANKS TO BIVOL FOR GREAT ANSWERS!
What a marvelous human being is Dmitri.
What an absolute honest guy ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Fantastic interview. Best analysis by a fighter I have ever seen. I am more impressed with Bivol after watching this video than I was before the fight. All the best to you, Mr. Bivol, in all your future endeavors.
Beterbiev HITS WAY HARDER THAN CANELO AND HE DOES NOT EVEN DO A REAL FULL SWING. He is more compact and throws hard on every punch compared to Canelo who puts everything into only one single full swing everytime.
WELL SAID and explained by BIVOL.
Exacly but the tile is a little misleading
Well maybe because canelo is 5'8/9 so it looks that way lol
Well maybd because Canelo is a natural 154 pounder
@@martinavila7401 Canelo is a natural 160 at least. His weight fits well at 168 also, his cut is much easier at 168 and hes 185 + on fight night. he might be short but he carries a lot of weight.
Beterbiev probably can’t even throw long hooks like Canelo
Love your interviews with Dmitriy. You guys now know each other well and interviews seem very relaxed and honest from both sides. Bivol class act, hope to see more great fights from him.
Thank you bro!
You're the man Dmitry. Your mindset and attitude are that of a winner. You did great!
you are one hell of a guy dimitri! I wish you all the best for your career and to become undisputed too.
Bivol is a smart and humble man I think he won can't wait for the rematch
The more I see of this warrior the more respect just keeps increasing and increasing. I haven’t heard another modern boxer speak so level-headed, humble+confident, and all around just an exemplary of what is obviously a rock-solid human being. Crawford has that quality too. Such a stand-up dude. EVEN in DEFEAT.
Folks that ain’t easy.
I can’t speak to allegations about him that I am only reading about in these comments but the 3 shift interviews and this longer interview make him seem like a solid dude. Hope I haven’t spoken too soon. Wouldn’t be the first time.
He didn't say Canelo hits harder, he said Canelo fully loaded up on a single shot, Beterbiev doesn't do this, if Beterbiev did then he would hit harder than Canelo obvz
Canelo is a smaller guy, Bivol already admitted Canelo punches felt harder.
It's clickbait and it worked because you bit the hook, all reporters do it
