Just a confusing fight. Bert is constant. Bivol is a couple of superb bursts.

Bivol has gotten himself back into it taking the 8th and 9th on my card
86-85 Bivol thru 9.

I'd be surprised if the judges don't have it 5-4 to Bivol at the moment with 3 to go.

I like Richie but without his fixation on Bivol’s imaginary injury it might seem as though Bivol’s got more than an even chance of winning this now
To be fair he didn't look in it for the middle rounds for whatever reason.

Bivol looks like his right hand is a little hurt but hiding it well.
Throwing is left hand far more than usual.

Are we counting this aggression from Beterbiev? Lots landing on the gloves and arms
he was landing well in 4 through 6, much less in 7 and 8, defo bivol won those

6-3 bivol for me, he looked in worrying form from 4-6 but took it up again and bert has just been plodding forward without landing anything of note or getting off much since

Quite one sided this , something off with Bivol .
Are we watching the same fight?
When he posted that, Bivol did seem a little off

87 - 84 Bivol, he is getting in the rhythm and using some street smart (last minute shoeshining, holding at the end) efficiently.

Bivol looks like he can win here as long as he stays on his feet.

I got 7-3 Bivol, although obviously doesn't tell the story of how on top Bert was looking in the middle rounds.

You could put that down to the normal ebbs and flows of a 12 round title fight

Ok but Bivol's most recent burst is, what, in its fifth round now?

Apart from a few combos he took early he's hardly been off!

Maybe, but it was 3-4 in a row and looked like Bert was taking over , Bivol did rally well after tho .

closer round than the previous three, bert a bit more aggressive and bivol not quite as busy, but still favour bivol. i suppose i could see it going other way . 7-3 bivol for me, would not have it closer than 6-4 bivol personally though

7 rounds to 4 for Bivol to me. I think it's his fight to lose going to the 12th, but he probably needs the 12th for good measure as some of these rounds have been close.

Damn. Bivol looking crazy good.
Beterviev needs a KO or at least one or two KD for me.

Bivol scraped the 11th but his arms look heavy. Just needs to survive the 12th to get a draw minimum
