Dmitry Bivol and Artur Beterbiev will meet for the third time to fight for the champion title
On the night of February 23, the long-awaited rematch between Russian boxers Artur Beterbiev and Dmitry Bivol took place in Saudi Arabia. The title of absolute world champion in the light heavyweight division was at stake. From the very beginning, Bivol took the center of the ring, demonstrating mastery of the jab and the ability to control the distance. While Beterbiev, famous for his power and aggressive style, sought to close the distance and impose a power fight, Bivol deftly avoided his attacks, demonstrating excellent footwork and defensive skills. In the middle of the fight, Beterbiev managed to break through his opponent's defense several times with powerful punches, causing him to stagger. However, Bivol quickly recovered and continued to deliver accurate combinations of punches. The final rounds were dictated by Bivol, who looked fresher and more active. The judges unanimously gave him the victory, thanks to which he took revenge for the defeat in the first fight and won the title of absolute world champion in the light heavyweight division. This triumph brought him championship belts, taking them from Beterbiev for the first time.
After this victory, new opportunities opened up for Bivol: he took a leading position in the world rankings and rose above his opponent in the list of the best boxers regardless of weight category according to "The Ring". Now he is waiting for a third fight with Beterbiev - for this he gave up the WBA title. However, the World Boxing Council (WBC) obliged Dmitry to defend the title against the mandatory challenger - David Benavidez. Despite his disappointment with the WBC decision, the boxer himself stated his intention to focus on unifying the remaining belts and proving his superiority.
In the world of boxing, the names of Artur Beterbiev and Dmitry Bivol are invariably associated with the pinnacle of success. Both athletes are world champions in the light heavyweight division and contenders for the title of the greatest boxers of all time. Artur Beterbiev is known for his incredible power: all of his 19 victories were won by knockout. His ability to adapt to his opponent is confirmed by victories over such ring masters as Oleksandr Gvozdyk and Anthony Yarde. In contrast, Dmitry Bivol is famous for his elegance and technique: his style combines speed, precision and tactical flexibility. The victory over Saul "Canelo" Alvarez cemented his reputation as one of the best boxers of our time.
