I expect Dmitry Bivol’s boxing means and expertise will likely be a bit an excessive amount of for Gilberto Ramirez, who has had his finest wins as a super-middleweight. I believe that we’ll see a large factors win for Bivol.

Dave Allen (Heavyweight contender)

As good as I believe Ramirez is, and he is excellent, I believe Bivol will win a factors resolution. I don’t see anybody at both 168 (kilos) or 175 beating Bivol on his finest day.

I expect it to be an excellent battle and an incredible check for each males, however extra so for Ramirez, who’s stepping up from super-middleweight after holding the WBO title for 3 years there. He is now boxing possibly the most effective fighter within the light-heavyweight division; somebody who has held his title for 5 years. Gilberto might make it troublesome along with his southpaw model and punching energy, however Bivol, who was additionally a world class newbie, would have most likely confronted this form of fighter earlier than.
