We followers have a probably nice battle to look ahead to on October 12; that is the huge, all-the-belts-on-the-line gentle heavyweight unification showdown between unbeaten countrymen Artur Beterbiev and Dmitry Bivol. The battle, which we have now been made to attend for on account of a postponement after Beterbiev was injured, may show to be the Battle of the 12 months.
And Bivol promoter Eddie Hearn is already what may come after the battle for the winner in addition to for the loser. Talking with UK Boxing Information, Hearn mentioned if Bivol wins, he may battle Mexican celebrity Canelo Alvarez in a rematch, the battle to happen at 175 kilos as the primary battle between Canelo and Bivol did, or if Bivol loses to Beterbiev, he may battle Canelo in a rematch at 168 kilos.
Canelo has expressed curiosity in making an attempt to avenge his vast resolution defeat to Bivol, and naturally Bivol, 23-0(12) wish to battle Canelo a second time. Hearn broke it down when talking with Boxing Information.
“If Dmitry Bivol beats Artur Beterbiev, we have now the chance to do Dmitry Bivol towards Canelo Alvarez for the undisputed gentle heavyweight world championship,” Hearn mentioned. “If Dmitry had been to lose, he may drop all the way down to 168 kilos to problem Canelo, which he’s able to doing. So, clearly, we wish to see Dmitry win this battle, and if Canelo needs it, I might like to make that occur.”
If Bivol does defeat Beterbiev, 20-0(20) – and virtually everybody has the October 12 battle down as a 50-50, or decide ’em battle – Canelo may discover the possibility to battle for the undisputed gentle heavyweight championship irresistible, and naturally, he can be seeking to avenge that loss from two years in the past. Canelo would know that if he grew to become unified king at 175, completely no one would ever be capable of query his greatness ever once more.
Or, as is the opposite risk, Canelo would little question like the thought of preventing Bivol at his extra snug weight of 168 kilos. Bivol has mentioned earlier than that he feels he wouldn’t be compromised if he fought down at super-middleweight. The massive one can be Bivol-Canelo II at light-heavyweight, however this rematch can be large at both weight.
However first comes the Bivol Vs. Beterbiev battle, and it actually does promise to be a basic Boxer Vs. Puncher affair.
Who wins on October 12, and the way?
