Dmitryry Bivol gets revenge, the edge of Artur Beterbiev from the decision

Published

on

Dmitriry Bivol avenged his loss in 2024 with Artur Beterbavier, defeating his rival with most of the decisions of the unquestioned lightweight heavyweight championship early morning at Anb Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

The rematch was set 133 days after Beterbiev won a narrow decision in October, and the second fight was as good as the first, with a rush between a skillful tactic in Bivol and the striking Puncher power in Beterbaiew.

Two judges won the fight for Bivol, 116-112 and 115-113, and the third judge won a draw in 114-114.

Bivol said that this time he was able to fight more relaxed after losing the first fight with Beterbiv.

“I didn’t do it [feel] This time too much pressure, as before, and I just wanted to work from the first round to the end of 12 ” – said Bivol later in an interview with the ring.

He added: “I was better [this time]. I was pushing more, I was more confident, I was lighter and I just wanted to win so much today. “

After spending 36 minutes in the ring in the first fight, both fighters knew what the second had to offer. Bivol (24-1, 12 KO) made the first regulation, standing flat-stop before Beterbaiew (21-1, 20 KO), instead of staying on the fingers and navigating the ring. A slight change in the strategy brought early results, because Bivol was pointed after the stab and prevented Beterbaiev from releasing his power shots.

But 40 -year -old Beterbiev was still pushing forward and forced Bivol to fight at a feverish pace. Bivol was successful, combining combinations with a few shots piercing the guardian of Beterbavie. Although Bivol was more busy, Beterbiv’s body hit began to wear a pretender. Beterbiev laid his foot on gas in the fifth round and hit Bivol’s body and head, sliding it around the ring with each blow.

Bivol, 34, became in the seventh round and set up combinations for stab. A tiny left hook in the eighth round forced Beterbaview to resist and think twice about pushing forward. With the reduction of Beterbaview, Bivol used his tiring opponent and threw him with a pure combination of impact in the middle of the ring.

“To be candid, it was arduous to keep him outside through the first four rounds,” said Bivol. “And then I saw that he was tired. I was also tired, but I had to be smarter. I have to hit more with pure blows. And I did it. “

Because Bivol looked fresh in the rounds of the championship, Beterbiev had to find something that could change the course of the fight. BIVOL’s ability and precise impact stopped Beterbiev’s progress.

Unlike the first fight, in which Bivol issued his adhesion during the fight, bit the mouthpiece and was more busy to close the program. In the last effort, Beterbiev stunned Bivol with her right hand at the end of the 12th round and opened the cut on the left eye. But Bivol hindered the final Salva Beterbaview, combining and avoiding further damage.

“I don’t want to talk about this decision,” said Beterbiev after incurring the first loss in his career. “Congratulations to Bivol.”

Bivol barely turned Beterbiv 142-137 in total blows landed in their first fight, but he had a significant advantage in the rematch, landing 170 blows to 123. Bivol also Beterbiev in nine out of 12 rounds.

Two divide a pair of very close fights, it seems obvious that the rubber match will be next. However, there is a chance that a momentary, lightweight heavyweight title, David Benavidez, will have the opportunity to challenge Bivol of the unquestionable title after he secured his place in the queue after a unanimous decision victory over David Morrell at the beginning of this month.

Turki Alalshikh, chairman of the general entertainment authority of Saudi Arabia, was seen in the air of three fingers in the air, seemingly signaling that the trilogy is on the horizon.

Beterbiev said: “We are going to make a third fight.”

About the last weekend Boxinginsider.com Promotions

Published

on

By: Sean Crose

If you follow boxing, you certainly know that last weekend it turned out to a gigantic extent. Ryan Garcia was dropped by Romero, and then allowed Romero to travel to the decision. It was great nervousness, but many fans were disappointed. However, Devin Haney, shocking, managed to act less impressive than Garcia. Fighting with Jose Ramirez, he looked almost as if Haney was trying to imitate Muhammad Ali in the Fleet Ali best. The difference was that Ali broke up when he bounced around the ring. Haney seemed unaware of this fact. Sure, the former delicate king won the fight, but apparently he didn’t get up-to-date fans.

All this fell on Times Square on Friday, a well -intended choice of place that turned out to be awkward. The next night, in Saudi Arabia, Canelo Alvarez faced an unclear letter named William Scull, a man who also jumped, refusing to throw. As mentioned, Scull seemed quite satisfied with his performance. Again, however, it was like Ali rising like a butterfly, refusing to sting like a bee. Some felt Scull should win because Canelo did not cope well with him. Scull was an opponent for everyone because he barely did nothing effectively. Avoiding an opponent and running from one are two separate things, that’s why Canelo won from judges. Scull either did not realize it or he did not care.

Fortunately, Nayya Inoue and Ramon Cardenes stopped the weekend from a total misfire, going on a Sunday evening at the Vegas war. Cardenes dropped Inoue early and then gave the man a real fight. Robust Inoue rose to this occasion after the arising of the mat, ultimately winning the war for exhaustion with space. Unfortunately, Inoue and Cardenes (along with the addition of Teofimo Lopez, who looked great on Times Square on Friday) were an exception last weekend, not the rules. Looking objectively at Friday, Saturday and Sunday, it is worth asking what went wrong. In the case of this answer, look for Garcia, Haney, Scull and Canelo answers. People can blame Al-Sheikh Turks for Friday’s failure, but the truth is that he is guilty of placing a great card in the wrong place on Friday. It was not his fault Canelo and Haney’s wines that decided to achieve worse results. Or that Canelo couldn’t stop Scull.

So why did these valued professionals not achieve worse results? Haney criticizes, but the truth is that he was beaten so much by (intentionally or not) Garcia a year ago that he lost his confidence and is probably shy. Let’s hope it warms up to fight. Garcia is a more sophisticated matter. He has long suffered from the problems with the ring, so it certainly could have had something to do with the loss of Romero. On the other hand, the fight in purity could also have something to do with failure. Either way, there is no sugar coating that it has a bit to do if he wants to return to the ring. As for Scull, people say that he was not interested in fighting. I think he felt he was fighting. However, this is him and his team. Perhaps, if he threw more, things would go differently.

Which leads us to Canelo. The truth is that it is hard to face a man who does not want to fight. As for people who think that the younger version of Canelo would achieve better results, they may be right. However, no one can overcome his father’s time and can be a episode calling a slothful warrior. Now, when in September he is to fight with Terenka Crawford, Canelo will want to look better than on Saturday evening in Vegas. Undoubtedly, Crawford will be prepared – and will not run on the ring either.

When he perceived as a whole, it seems that the last weekend was “one of these things.” What if it is not? What if there were more than fighters just with bad nights at the same time? Haney is 26 years elderly. Like Garcia. Is it possible that the argument that people throw is true – that younger warriors do not have a heart today – that when things go south, they fall apart? It can be, but it is quite an accusation. Again, this may be true, but it is also worth remembering that Garcia and Haney could bring additional luggage to the ring on Friday. Let’s not forget that 29 -year -old Cardenas fought on Sunday like a warrior. We will need more evidence before we reject a whole generation of talented fighters. At the moment, however, the future may not look so brilliant in some star attractions than a week ago.

Benavidez wants Canelo Spot before Eubank Jr. in Great Britain

Bivol vs Benavidez

David Benavidez is ready to take Cinco de Mayo from Canelo Alvarez if his Mexican Nemesis is fighting in Great Britain.

To his frustration, the WBC heavyweight champion has long wanted to fight Canelo. Despite the years of racing, Canelo never accepted the fight, even when WBC ordered her.

When Canelo has four Turki Alalshikh fights, which will not include him, Benavidez will try to become the modern star of Las Vegas.

After winning Canelo over William Scull, to become a master of medium superpower again, Benavidez remains frozen.

Canelo is closed in the face of Crawford on September 12 at the Allegiant stadium in Las Vegas. On Saturday evening, the fighters went face to face in Riyadh to seal the contract.

Along with his falling return, the pound star as a pound wants his third contract to be a debut in Great Britain in May 2026. The likely opponent is Chris Eubank Jr.

The British actions increased from a very good performance in demanding a unanimous decision against Conor Benn at the Tottenham Hotspur London stadium. However, as World Boxing News informed many times, Canelo was always interested in Eubank Jr. for the future fight for the title of world champion.

That is why the King of Super Medium WBO, WBA, IBF and WBC can place all his lanes on the line for Canelo vs. Eubank Jr. At the Wembley stadium on May 2 next year.

This releases the same date so that the next Mexican falls and take over the tradition of Las Vegas Strip if it is confirmed.

Oscar de la Hoya kept this place until 2007 before Floyd Mayweather took power. The boxing legend donated the baton to Canelo in 2015.

If the Sampson Lewkowicz promoter gets his way, Benavidez will be the next one that will secure the long -term date.

In a statement sent to WBN this week, Sampson Boxing said: “Lewkowcz says that he did everything to make the celebration of Cinco de Mayo in Las Vegas next year is not unforgettable, fighting with a lightweight heavyweight supergim of David Benavidez.

“Lewkowcz says that his mission is a showdown for a lightweight heavyweight supremacy between the” Mexican monster “David Benavidez a Bivol or Beterbaview for Cinco de Mayo from 2026 in Las Vegas.”

In the case of the gloomy performance of Canelo against Scull, Lewkowcz added: “After watching Canelo Alvarez on Saturday evening and how he looked, I would not put him in Benavidez for fear that he would be seriously injured.

“David Benavidez will fight in autumn, and then he will be ready for Cinco de Mayo to face Bivol or Beterbaview. The torch will finally be given to him as a modern face face.”

After frustration with Canelo Benavidez, he faced Bivol as a must -be contemporary. The story repeated itself until WBC worked, he took the Bivol belt and gave it to Benavidez.

Bivol’s promoter, Eddie Hearn, said that the fight would never happen because of the contract with Beterbalin for the trilogy.

The head of Matchroom could not understand why the World Boxing Council ordered the fight without trying to throw out the contract.

“His Excellency came out and made a rematch when he didn’t have to,” said Hearn Fight Hub TV. “Part of this agreement was that if we win, the third fight for Artur Beterbaview would take place. So I was very surprised by the speed of order.

“Don’t forget that Dmitriry Bivol has just won the WBC title. You always get Grace as a master. It wasn’t like it was ordered and Benevidez was waiting.”

President of WBC Mauricio Sulamain said Bivol had rejected the Benavidez offer worth $ 8 million. Hearn was not satisfied with the disclosure of this information.

“He simply defeated Morrella and it is as right, negotiations of the boom. Boom, a purse auction, a boom, informing people about the public offer.

“I mean when there was a time when someone from the organization publicly talked about the offer that Dimitri Bivol received?

“Actually, it’s quite strange. It’s like trying to put pressure on him to fight.

“The money is not located near money, which he intends to earn for fighting Beterbaiev, but it doesn’t matter if the offer was 20 million. We have a contract, and we also have our word, which is our bond, with which we never go.

“We will take the third fight. We will fight his Excellency because he gave Dmitriry the greatest opportunity.

“And by the way, in my opinion. And it is very challenging for Mauricio and WBC, because you are under great pressure from all different parties.

“The biggest fights in sport must be allowed and sometimes replace the mandatory obligation.

“For me, Bivol vs Beterbiev is the biggest fight in the division. We saw the two best fights I’ve ever seen. Why wouldn’t you let the third unquestionable?”

Bivol vs Beterbiev will not be unquestioned when it takes place this fall in Saudi Arabia. The winner will decide whether Benavidez will get a shot in the crown of four stripes after receiving the WBC version from the trilogy.

Terenka Crawford is looking for a historical victory when he faces Canelo on September 12

Image: Crawford's Smile Suggests He's Already Counting Canelo's Money... Twice"

After they saw the disappointing the main event, Fight fans received an exhilarating announcement that on September 12, 2025 at the Allegiant stadium in Las Vegas, Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (63-2-2, 39 KO) will defend its unquestioned crown before the Terenka “Bud” Crawford (41-0, 31 Kos).

The expected duel was talked for a significant time, and now it is official. The unmarked title Canelo vs Crawford will be the first event promoted by Dan White and Turki Alalshikh under the TKO boxing banner.

Canelo Alvarez is the future Hall of Famer, which has a CV full of great fights. Now he fits another elite warrior who is also the future Hall of Famer, and this warrior has all the tools required to defeat Canelo.

Departing from Omah, Nebraska, Terenca “Bud” Crawford, he became the world champion for the first time in March 2014, when he defeated Ricky Burns with a unanimous decision and won the title of WBO Lightweight.

A year later, Crawford moved to 140 and defeated Thomas Dulorme in the sixth round of TKO and won the title of WBO Super Airy WBO champion. Crawford would become a united champion, and then in August 2017 he detained Julius Indongo to become unquestioned.

After conquering the lightweight division, Terenka Crawford moved to a welterweight, stopped Jeff Horn in the 9th round and won the WBO World title. Crawford would have six successful defense of titles.

Mega-Walka, which took place five years, which finally took place in July 2023, when Terence Crawford faced WBA, WBC, IBF Errol Spence Jr. champion. Crawford had a dominant performance when he stopped Spence in the 9th round.

Together with the victory, Crawford reached Raridified Air, because he and Oleksandr Usyk are the only two boxers’ sexes that are not familiar with two different weight classes in the era of four stripes. Evander Holyfield is also part of this exclusive group because he achieved it in the era of three stripes.

Nowadays, Terenka Crawford has the opportunity to separate from Utyk and Holyfield, if he can defeat Canelo Alvarez and remain undisputed in the unprecedented class of third weight. Crawford will have the chance to do this historic feat on September 12.

Canelo Alvarez is an extremely talented warrior, but he is defeated, as two losses on his album indicate. As the story has shown, you must be a very special warrior to defeat Canelo, and Terenka “Bud” Crawford is a boxer who matches the criteria.

Terenka Crawford is a switch that is a very aggressive counter -ax. Crawford has high IQ, great lead hand control, leg work, placing impacts and the power of impact. Crawford has all the tools needed to overcome Canelo Alvarez, but there is one thing that makes some fight fans doubt Crawford.

As a semi -care weight, Crawford beat Spence in July 2023, led the weight class to defeat Israel Madrimova, and now he moves up two weight classes to face Canelo. Some doubts believe that Crawford has skills, but the transfer of two weight classes can be too much to overcome.

While Crawford may seem the same size as Canelo, on September 12, it will debut in 168, while Canelo has been competing in the super-medium weight division for almost seven years.

There is no doubt that Crawford has the ability to win, but the question is or can hurt Canelo, and can Canelo blow when the fight enters the later rounds?

After Canelo Alvarez defeated William Scull, Canelo and Crawford had their first official meeting. In 2023, Terenka Crawford became the first boxer who would not be undisputed in two weight classes, and on September 12 he will have the chance to become the first to be the first to be unquestioned in the third division.
