On Saturday in Saudi Arabia, Artur Beterbiev and Dmitry Bivol faced off for the undisputed light heavyweight title.

The two former Russian Amateur teammates fought the full 12 rounds of a close back-and-forth affair.  

The judges eventually awarded the win to Beterbiev (114-114, 115-113 and 116-112) but of course, with a fight this close, the fans and pros were bound to have opinions about it. 

UFC lightweight champion Islam Makhachev tweeted that he was watching the fight during the ring announcements.
