russian boxer Arthur Beterbiev after the fight with Briton Anthony Yard, he said he wanted to fight for the title of absolute light heavyweight world champion with a compatriot Dmitry Bivol .
On Saturday in London, Beterbiev defeated Yard by eighth-round technical knockout and defended his WBC, WBO, IBF light heavyweight titles. Bivol owns the WBA belt.
– Every fight is different – different feelings, preparation and so on. I can’t say it was bad. If the fight continued, I did it better. But I won, so I can relax. All top boxers in our class can punch well, Anthony is no exception. He is 31 years old. I think he will do well in the future. As for me, one day I want to become a good boxer. Next fight? I can’t wait to get my next job. Bivol? I’d rather take this job than any other. Yes, I want to fight Bivol,” Beterbiev said after the fight.
