    Been pretty boring so far. Not as explosive as I expected. Both look scared to lose so are playing it safe.

    This has been very underwhelming. Two supreme boxers just cancelling each other out. Nothing has really happened. I think Beterbiev probably needs a KO though at this stage.

    Two last good rounds for Beterbiev, but maybe not enough. Give it probably 1 point to Bivol, but wouldn't be surprised at a draw. Either way, pretty drab fight.

    Another Saudi bore. Two guys frightened to lose so played it safe. Now they can have a rematch because there wasn't a clear winner.

    Have you ever watched Bivol before? He’s one of the dullest fighters I’ve ever watched.

    Harsh…….thought 114 - 114 was right.

    Can only think they’ve gave it Beterbiev for his continual hunting down of Bivol in most rounds…….Bivol seemed to land cleaner punches but he didn’t seem to hurt Beterbiev at all

    Enjoyed that. Two very well matched champions. I had Beterbiev by a round, but was expecting a draw.

    Sky commentary was describing a Bivol landslide. Idiots.

    Even he doesn't sound like he thought he won it.

    I didn’t score it as I missed the first two rounds but what I watched felt really close. Not surprised there’s some controversy

    Even the post fight interviews are boring.
