Russian boxer and commentator Vladimir Myshev, in a conversation with , said that the Russian Dmitri Bivol should be among the top 3 boxers in 2023.
Bivol defended his WBA title last week and won the IBO light heavyweight belt by unanimous decision against Briton Lyndon Arthur.
— First place goes to Naoya Inoue, this little Japanese monster is really impressive. Most recently, he became the absolute champion of the second weight category, and he is not even going to stop. I’ve been watching this guy’s fights and highlighting his videos more and more often this year than any other off-duty boxing content.
Second place goes to Terence Crawford, this is simply a unique phenomenon, one to which any other synonym can be applied. It’s amazing how easily he faced Errol Spence, who before the fight was considered a very dangerous opponent for him. Second place goes to him only because I want to highlight Inoue. And the fact that Crawford is cool… We all seem to have gotten used to it already.
Third place is absolutely subjective and perhaps even dishonest in places: Dmitry Bivol. Even if this year he only had one fight, in which he gave Lyndon Arthur no chance, I think that by beating Saul Alvarez in 2022, he gave himself a margin of safety, to so to speak. Plus the anticipation of a potential fight with Artur Beterbiev also adds points. Well, who else were you rooting for? Conor McGregor And Cristiano Ronaldo simultaneously? – Myshev told .
