Tony Bellew Looks at Key Factors for Beterbiev vs Bivol 2

When discussing Beterbiev vs Bivol 2 and if he sees a different outcome this time, Bellew revealed his prediction: “I do (think it will be a different outcome) with Bivol winning on points. Once again, I thought the first could have gone either way. I thought Bivol was the better boxer on the night, but I thought Beterbiev pressed the whole night and he outpunched him. He just outworked him. And I think them championship rounds in that fight were big. I did like Bivol’s boxing, so Bivol has shown us he has the ability. I think he’ll learn his lesson from the first fight.”

The ex-cruiserweight world champion then teased a potential mouth-watering clash: “But if Beterbiev is successful again, then I think he could take on Jai Opetaia,” said Bellew.

Beterbiev vs Opetaia would undoubtedly grab the attention of the boxing world.
