Crolla: "I don't think Bivol has the power to keep Beterbiev down"

Former world champion Anthony Crolla shared his expectations for the bantamweight title fight between Artur Beterbiev and Dmitry Bivol.

"You can tell it's a good fight because a lot of people have a hard time picking the winner of it. I'm one of those people. If I really had to pick, I don't think Bivol has the firepower to hold off Beterbiev. I foresee Beterbiev wearing him down and probably stopping him in the ninth or tenth round.

But I also wouldn't be surprised if we see a very disciplined performance from Bivol as he outboxes Beterbiev, hits him and moves like he did in the fight with Saul Alvarez," Crolla told the BBC.

Recall that the bout Beterbiev vs. Bivol will take place today in Saudi Arabia.
