WBA light heavyweight world champion Dmitri Bivol spoke about the timing of his return to the ring, as well as a possible fight with WBC, WBO and IBF light heavyweight world champion Artur Beterbiev.
“Every time, I hope my next fight is against Beterbiev. I ask my team when and how we can make this fight happen. I have to fight in January first, then in June or July. Better in June. The fight against Beterbiev is a great fight. For me, he’s a great fighter. He is today the most powerful puncher in boxing. And not just in the light heavyweight division. I wish to test my skills against such an opponent.
My health is good now and I am hungry for a fight. Yes, there was a break, but I had a break before, which lasted a year and a half. Then I had several fights and became the best fighter of the year. I train, I have goals. If you like my boxing, please be patient and I will be back in January. I hope we see a good fight,” Bivol said in an interview with Fight Hub TV.
Bivol entered the ring for the last time to fight against Mexican Gilberto Ramirez. The fight took place in November 2022 during a boxing evening in Abu Dhabi. Dmitry won by unanimous decision of the judges. He has 21 victories (11 by KO) and no defeats in professional boxing.
