Promoter Eddie Hearn says that his warrior Dmitry Bivol has an agreement with Artur Beterbalin on the trilogy and could not defend against the mandatory David Benavidez David Benavidez. He states that he also gave “his word” that Bivol (24-1, 12 KO) will deal with Artur.

Hearn is not cheerful that WBC ordered Bivol to defend himself against Benavidez (30-0, 24 KO) as soon as he became his duty, because he felt that he should have had “grace period ‘ where he could fight anyone. Hearn does not say what this “grace period” should be, but taking into account the cake that Turks pays Bivol, it would not be a surprise if it was several years.

“We have a contract and we said a word that we would fight Beterbaiew again,” said Eddie Hearn Fight Hub tv Asked why he decided to go towards the trilogy match between Dmitryjum Bivol and Artur Beterbal, instead of matching Bivol to his compulsory David Benavidez.

Debate about honesty

Bivol and Beterbiev have already fought twice in a row. They want to fight for the third time, not allowing one of the pretenders to fight for the belt. When fighters download such titles, it is harmful to this sport.

It’s like having three straightforward super bowls between the same teams and the utilize of the argument that the third game was necessary because the first two were divided and invigorating to watch. It’s still unfair.

“His Excellency did an amazing job with Dmitry Bivol. We had four fights in the kingdom,” said Hearn. “When we lost a close fight with Artur Beterbal, his Excellency came out and performed a rematch when he did not have to. This part of this contract was that if we win, there would be a third fight against Artur Beterbievar.

“So I was very surprised by the speed of the order. Do not forget that Dmitriry Bivol just won the title of WBC. You always get Grace as a master. It was not like it was ordered, and Benavidez was waiting. He just beat Morrell, and like a boom, negotiations.” Boom, “Bid bags”. Telling people offered by society [$8 million to Bivol for Benavidez]. “

WBC may feel that there is something to be guilty of Benavidez because they did not force Canelo Alvarez to defend against him when he was mandatory for a solid two years at the age of 168. Bivol and Beterbiev have also fought twice. When does it end? Who will say that Turki does not want to see the fourth fight between them after the trilogy? In the meantime, Benavidez’s career is stuck in a deadline, waiting for these two aging fighters to allow someone else

“Was any time when someone from the organization [sanctioning body] Does he publicly talk about the offer that Dmitriry Bivol will receive? “Hearn said about WBC ordering Bivol to defend against Benavidez. It’s like trying to put pressure on his fight [with Benavidez]. Money is not close to what he earns to fight Beterbiev.

“It does not matter if the offer amounted to $ 20 million. We have a contract. We also have our word, which is our bond, with which we never go, and we [Bivol] It will be the third fight [with Artur Beterbiev]. We will fight his Excellency because he gave Dmitryma his greatest opportunity. “

Would Hearn say the same if he promoted Benavidez? He ears away from angrily, pressing the “Mexican monster” to get his warrior to Bivol.

“By the way, in my opinion, Maurycio is very challenging [Sulaiman] And WBC, because you are under great pressure from all pressing pages. It is very significant that the biggest fights [translation: Hearn views Bivol-Beteriev as the greatest fight in the sport] In sport they are allowed and sometimes replace the mandatory obligation – said Hearn.

“For me, Bivol-Betrabs are the biggest fight in the division. We saw the two best fights I have ever seen. Why would you not let the third unquestioned? We all have their own rules, we are where we are.”
