WBA world champion in the light heavyweight category Dmitri Bivol said he has a contract that includes a fight with Artur Beterbiev .
“Indeed, when we signed a contract with RCC, one of our desires was to fight with Beterbiev. And this was stated in the contract.
— Is the contract still valid?
– We need to clarify. There was a clause in the contract that we would fight for titles, but now title fights no longer take place in Russia.
– Summer 2024 and your fight with Beterbiev – is this a fork in the water?
– Everything is possible. Very close to what could happen. But don’t rush. Because I still have to box on the 23rd [Линдоном] Arthur and Beterbiev must defeat Callum Smith. But it’s more real than before,” Bivol was quoted as saying by MMA.Metaratings.ru.
Bivol’s next match will take place on December 23 against Briton Lyndon Arthur. The meeting will take place in Saudi Arabia. The Russian has 21 victories and not a single defeat. His opponent has 23 victories and one defeat.
Bivol holds the WBA title, while the WBC, IBF and WBO titles are held by Artur Beterbiev, who will face Callum Smith in January.
