One of the biggest fights in boxing history.

[LimerickR]

This fight is very similar to When Crawford vs Spence fought each other. You have 2 top p4p undefeated fighters going at it for undisputed glory. It doesn't get any better than this. These are fights for true hardcore boxing fans. I cannot wait for it, and a solid undercard to go with it. His Excellency has delivered again. Making boxing great again.

I got Beterbiev by knockout!! Bivol's gonna be in survival mode!! He's gonna get knocked out cold🥶

[Tom-ukol]

!!CANT WAIT FOR SATURDAY NIGHT!!....Fight of the year, Maybe Decade, Bivol by decision or Beterbiev by Knockout, Really dont know, 7/8 rnds at least.

Got to be fair mind Riyadh are smashing it this hast to be the best fight card I think I've seen.

[JOHNLynch-cc]

Betterbiev has stopped everyone even the ones that were taller longer bigger big punchers everyone. BUT bivol has out boxed everyone EVEN those who were taller longer and bigger and beat them all so convincingly. I mean shoot this is the best of the best here. But I just think at some point bivol will feel that unstoppable overwhelming power of arter Betterbiev. Don't no if bivol gets stopped tho. Mabie he'll be the first person to take arter the distance but I got Betterbiev winning and Dam I can't wait for round one.lets go

[peterbaird]

Honestly can't split Beterbiev or Bivol I'm really looking forward to Saturday night

[stephencalderwood]

Really looking forward to this fight rooting for bivol going to be tough tho his chin will be tested but excited fur it

[saifhussain]

Good interview gotta love Eddie talking abt these huge fights potentially happening makes me even more excited for the future boxing truly is in a good place and I’m in my happy place simply being a purist fan of the sport and seeing these major cards but beterbiev is gonna get this w inshallah❤

[desmondoreilly]

Wouldn't surprise me if the main fight went the distance. Both men are total warriors with huge hearts that can't even comprehend the idea of a loss. Could even be a split decision. 36 mins of pummelling the shxt out of each other.

[garyhoufe]

Conor has a lot of Options...Lol....Yeah whether to take Steroids again or not....He lost all the respect from all the Fans...and let's be real here....hes not got any chance against the likes of Boots Ennis...he would get destroyed...He got nothing of his Father's Genes for Boxing...hes average at best and thats being generous...he wins nothing...But he's just the same as Eubank they are both only in it for the Money

[marcusj]

its so irritating when they attribute this riyadh and the saudi' stuff to fury and ngannou. AJ V USYK and AJ V Ruiz were both saudi and riyadh. So fury v ngannou was not some starting point

[thundercheeks]

Only one of these fighters "belongs in the 4 kings era, " and its Beterbiev, who has been collecting belts since 2017. Bivol has been clutching his for 7 years, never--not ONCE--pursuing a unification fight. This isnt a sportsman, and certainly isnt deserving of any kind of praise, especially after flat-out admitting he aged Beterbiev out. Wont matter, though. Dudes getting absolutely wrecked on Saturday.

[Boxmeister]

I beleive that Bivol wins on points. His ring IQ too smart to get caught by BERTEVIEV, will be very similar to his recent fight against CANELO, BERTEVIEV aggressive as CANELO. Just my thought and I do think age may be a deciding factor🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊

[nabsterishiy]

Opataia vs nichols is going to be a banger!!

[illnamethisaccountlater]

The sportwashing is going down a treat

[Rejetnicks]

I was a massive GGG fan and was looking for the next thing and i saw Bivol. I have to admit, Beterbiev flew under my radar for far to long. But after watching all his fights, i see Beterbiev winning. Despite his age. I want both to win. Both are true warriors.

[Senjutsu]

Aj v Dubois 2 in February? How did I miss that announcement…?

[blitztactique]

Battle of the ugly! Let’s go UglyBiev! I’m rooting for you champ!

[MohamedBarry-yruv]

Frank is a legend congratulations 🎉the game changer is here Eddie is Frank boys 😂😂😂
