Athletistic/ Boxing. WBA light heavyweight champion Dmitry Bivol has slammed the World Boxing Council.

“I’m upset that the WBC doesn’t want to sanction my fight against Beterbiev for political reasons. There’s a Russian champion in my weight, but they justify it as living in Canada. Well, I’m a citizen of Kyrgyzstan because “I lived in Los Angeles for a long time. I’m not looking for excuses. I just want to have the opportunity to fight for the title, because it’s not fair,” said Bivol.

Earlier, World Boxing Council chief Mauricio Suleiman said Bivol would not fight for the WBC title while representing Russia.
