Dmitry Bivol will defend his unified delicate heavyweight titles against Michael Eifert on Saturday in Russia.

Bivol (24-1, 12 KO) defeated Eifert (13-1, 5 KO) in a rematch at the UMMC Arena in Yekaterinburg.

Bivol is putting his IBF and WBA titles on the line, although his WBO title is not in danger.

The 35-year-old pound-for-pound star won the undisputed championship in a rematch with Artur Beterbiev last February, four months after his first professional loss to his compatriot.

Bivol decided to relinquish the WBC crown in pursuit of a third fight with Beterbiev, which did not take place, but David Benavidez upgraded to full master.

Eifert is the mandatory challenger for the IBF belt, but he hasn’t fought in almost two years.

The German has won seven in a row since his only professional defeat, including a unanimous decision victory over faded former world champion Jean Pascal more than three years ago.

Jesse “Bam” Rodriguez became a three-weight world champion in Arizona, winning the WBA bantamweight title with a dominant sixth-round knockout of Antonio Vargas.

Rodriguez (24-0, KO17) was previously a flyweight and super flyweight world champion and last dropped in November 2025, defeating Fernando Martinez in ten rounds to defend his WBC and WBO super flyweight crowns.

Vargas (19-2-1 KO11) won the WBA interim belt in 2024 and was promoted to full champion, but his first defense in Japan ended in a draw last July when he and Daigo Higa could not be separated.

Rodriguez used his speed and legs to get off to a good start on this one, his jab went well and he also had a nice uppercut that landed on target.

Vargas wobbled in the second, a powerful left hand did damage, and Rodriguez also unloaded with huge shots.

This marked the beginning of the enda powerful left hand dropped Vargas in the fifth throw, and Vargas was now in survival mode, landing another uppercut before boldly ending the round.

In the sixth, it was over, a huge left hand rocking Vargas and a right-left combination, leaving Vargas on his knees and then on his back for a countout.
