Definitely reminds me of Bradley Beal. Mathurin and Halliburton are going to be a great backcourt.

Now that we’ve seen that he can absorb physical contact well and play through it, as well as his ability to use those shot fakes to go along with a very quick first step to get by his defender, I think it’s safe to say that we have a superstar in the making.

????????????????…1-????????-Прекрасный бокс,как фехтование.Постоянно в движении,всё видит и опережает VK.SV/RISABEL соперника.Как на тренировке через усилие и к победному нокауту. Хладнокровно по змеиному и резко,как тигр,это всё мастерство отточенное годами и изнурительными тренировками.Хотелось бы посмотреть его бой с Усиком,но видимо не в этой жизни,другая весовая категория.Безусловно Дима был на две головы выше Баррейры и это факт — нокаут лишь Салют в честь и Славу Бивола Дмитрия.Слава и заслуженный пояс Чемпиона снова у Бивола.Ура!Ура!Ура!
