Athletistic / Boxing / MMA Eddie Hearn, promoter of undefeated light heavyweight Joshua Buatsi (16-0, 13 KOs), says he challenged the team of Russian WBA world champion Dmitry Bivol (20-0, 11 KOs).

“We want a fight between Buatsi and Bivol. We went to Bivol with an offer, and now we have to make sure he accepts it. there are no deals, nothing has been signed yet,” Hearn said in a video on the Pro Boxing Fans YouTube channel.

Recall that in his last fight, Joshua Buatsi beat Craig Richards, who was also a former rival of Bivol, by unanimous decision.
