It doesn't get much better than this. Beterbiev and Bivol are at the top of their games and brought out the best in each other in their October matchup.

There's no reason to believe we won't see that again on Saturday.

Bivol looked like the better boxer in their first matchup. When all things were equal he looked like the better puncher, he beat Beterbiev to the punch and put together better combinations.

Beterbiev was the better fighter on that night. His endurance and willingness to stick to a high-output plan in the later rounds sealed the deal and earned him undisputed status.

It's something that Bivol has had to think a lot about in the last few months. He tasted defeat for the first time in his career, but also understands how important it is to bounce back.

"It was a short time when I didn't like life," Bivol said, per ESPN's James Regan. "But then I switched emotions, and I started to enjoy the life. I have another chance... Not too many people [have] another chance. It's great that I have another chance."

Given the opportunity to re-evaluate his plan against Beterbiev, there's a good chance that Bivol will tweak his strategy. A slower start could actually help Bivol have enough juice in the championship rounds to put the finishing touches on a victory.

Beterbiev is making a quick turnaround for a fighter who is 40 years old. His gas tank played a major role in winning the first bout and making up for any skill deficit. Asking him to do the same thing four months later could be a little too much.

This one could be another instant classic, but Bivol could create a situation where a third fight between the two is inevitable.
