Official announcement of the fight for the title of absolute world boxing champion between Dmitri Bivol And Artur Beterbiev This is good news, but it is a shame that two Russians have to face each other in the ring, Alexei Tishchenko, two-time Olympic champion, told .
On Saturday evening, the chairman of the General Entertainment Authority of Saudi Arabia, Turki Al al-Sheikh, announced that the fight between Beterbiev and Bivol would take place on June 1 in Saudi Arabia.
— The news that the fight for the absolute title will take place is good. It’s not often that such fights happen in professional boxing, when a person is truly determined to be the strongest. There is a bit of disappointment and annoyance at the idea of two Russians fighting. As a result, one of them will most likely lose. On the other hand, we will win and become the absolute world champion.
As for favorite, I won’t give preference to anyone here. Yet there will be a fight between two worthy adversaries. The ring will show which of them is stronger. “Everything will depend on the nuances: who presented in what form, how he feels, whether there were injuries, etc.,” Tishchenko told .
Beterbiev holds championship belts according to WBC, WBO, IBF and has 20 first victories in 20 fights. Bivol holds the WBA belt and has 22 victories in 22 fights.
