Not many have Bert a chance in this thinking he would be out-boxed.
Nail gave it a good effort. Ultimately it came down to them body shots.
Bert didn’t care about his KO streak going into this, but he sensed when Nail was finished..
Good fight overall.

That was a pleasure to watch, Beterbiev has gained a new fan. Gvozdyk fought a good fight as well, just took too many big body shots that slowed him down allowing Beterbiev to close the distance and start landing big shots on the inside.

Whoa! What’s he saying. He has decent English. He’s 34, but I feel he’s just about to get appreciated.

Bert was a lot more accurate than I expected. Mixed the shots nicely. The body work I think was what really broke Gvo.
Bert is better than I thought. Maybe it took an opponent he respected to calm down the caveman in him a bit.

I haven't been keeping up too much with the current section lately. Just saw before this fight started tonight the overwhelming favorite this board had Gvozdvk. I was quite surprised.
You’re wasting away your life not keeping up with the current scene. Let me guess you’re watching that ufc game. Smh
come back to boxing. We are in the post Mayweather era.

Damn. Don’t think Bivol or Kovalev stand much of a chance against Beterbiev. Beterbiev’s run could go on for quite a while. What’s the toughest fight out there for him? Eleider Alvarez? I’m sure Beterbiev would win that too. Too bad he’s already 35. I think his reign lasts a few years. Good fight

Bivol is the toughest fight for him.

Crap cards going into that 10th.
Two judges had Nail ahead. I don’t see it. It wasn’t close by that round IMO. They were looking to screw Bert. Good thing he finished it. Although the KD’s would have helped had the fight continued.

Jack Reiss. He usually officiates a lot of WBC fights.

most people scoring the rbr had it the same, the exact same I believe. Some of the rds were tight however most of them were clear - as clear as you can get with tight rounds. Scoring in boxing needs improvement.

I don't see how Gvo was ahead at that point. I thought maybe at best 4-4 after 8, but then Bert obviously won the 9th. I had Bert up 6-3 at the time of the stoppage.

Calls a KD when there wasn't any, then doesn't call a legit KD when Bert actually got it lol.

Bivol is the toughest fight for him.
Considering that Beterbiev took Gvozdyk's shots so well, he will have zero respect for Bivol's power. The guy has a legit chin. Bivol loses that fight for sure. Probably get's stopped at a similar time as Gvozdyk.

Bivol is more precise and better at distance management. I’ve seen him exercise pin point punching. He won’t ko Bert, I agree, but he can out box him. That’s what the game would be imo. I feel he’s a better ‘the nail’.

Bert's thing is that he's already mid 30s though. And while not many pro fights the years and years of am fights still take some toll. For now he looks a beast, but his peak could be a short one.

Bert showed he can also move and box and not just all about the power.
