Athletistic / Boxing. The light heavyweight world champion according to WBA and IBO, Russian boxer Dmitry Bivol, announced the date of his fight with his compatriot Artur Beterbiev. According to Dmitry, he will be ready for the fight with Beterbiev on October 12.
“I feel good now. I need to be focused, I need to be ready for October 12, that’s what I need,” Bivol responded at the press conference after the fight with Zinad .
On May 4, it became known that Artur Beterbiev suffered a torn meniscus, therefore his fight with Dmitry Bivol was postponed indefinitely. As a result, Libyan Malik Zinad became Bivol’s new opponent.
Last night in Saudi Arabia, Dmitry Bivol knocked out Libyan Malik Zinad in the sixth round and defended his WBA and IBO light heavyweight world titles.
