Presenter and commentator at Dmitry Guberniev expressed disappointment that Russian boxers Artur Beterbiev And Dmitri Bivol will fight for the title of absolute world light heavyweight champion without the flags of the Russian Federation.
The fight will take place on October 12 in Riyadh. Bivol has 23 victories in 23 fights, he holds the IBO and WBA belts. Beterbiev has 20 first wins in 20 fights; he holds the IBF, WBO and WBC belts. Beterbiev will represent Canada, Bivol will represent Kyrgyzstan.
— The fight will be great, but Bivol and Beterbiev will not enter the ring under the Russian flag. The fight is linked to international sport, to boxing, but not to Russia. The event is historic, but it is a shame that two of our guys are performing without the flag of the Russian Federation,” Guberniev told .
