The Bivol Master Class against Beterbiev: Canelo Rematch, Benavidez or Trilogy in the future?

Organizer Eddie Hearn says he will depend on Turks Alalshih to decide who Dmitry Bivol will fight after his victory in the majority of 12 rounds over the undisputed heavyweight champion Arthur Betherbiev in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

There is talk of a trilogy match between buffalo (24-1, 12 CO) and Betherbiev (21-1, 20 CO) if Dmitry wins tonight. However, Hearn mentioned other options for his buffalo fighter, saying he had a rematch with Kanelo Alvarez or the protection of the title against the obligatory David Benavides.

Hearn's vision

The way Hearn's eyes lit up when he mentioned Canello's name as an opportunity for a buffalo, he may be the one who is more interested in Dmitry to fight afterwards. Canelo has a match against Terens Crawford on September 13th. So, unless Turki wants to try to insist on Canelo-Bivol's rematch in December, he will have to wait until 2026.

If it depends on Hearn, Bivol will fight cinnamon afterwards. This is what he wants, and is also the more boss. The way buffalo struggles tonight, David Benavides would take him down and stop him. He would not get tired the way Betherbiev appeared and stop hitting. There is no hesitation for Benavides.

The 40 -year -old Betterbiev has run out of gas after fighting well in the first half of this evening a match. Entering the second part of the match, he looked like he was heading for a knockout, but he stopped hitting. The only explanation is that he got out. Betterbiev is still fighting well enough to deserve to win six rounds, but only one judge saw him that way. The other two had a buffalo.

“It was probably the best boxing performance I have ever seen live. It was amazing, “said Eddie Hearn Ring magazineTalking about the victory of his fighter Dmitry Bivol over Arthur Beterbiev on Saturday night. “He made Betherbiev follow him around, working corners.

“I have the feeling that he deserved it for the first time (against Betherbiev). This time there are no arguments, although someone tried to rob us with equality. It was a clear victory. This time, Betherbiev started quickly and probably a little tired. It was one -way traffic for several rounds. It looked so dangerous.

“Yes, what he wants (Turks Alalshih). Benavides, Canello and Triliga. The first match was 10 out of 10. The next one will be even better, “Hearn said.
