The fight between Artur Beterbiev and Dmitry Bivol will take place on June 1 at the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh

Dmitry Bivol is a very difficult opponent. He has lightness and speed, and is also distinguished by high technical skill. The Bivol is able to maintain a high rhythm throughout the match. He is dangerous with his fast and strong punches, as well as the ability to instantly approach and leave a safe distance. In addition, he has a lot of tricks, maneuvers and other ways to confuse the enemy in his arsenal. Bivol always makes sure that the fights take place according to his rules, and this tactic has not failed him: there has not been a single defeat in his career so far.

The upcoming match promises to be spectacular. After all, Bivol himself has repeatedly stated that it is more interesting for him to "tinker" with the enemy, rather than knock him out in the first minutes of the fight.

His opponent, Artur Beterbiev, on the contrary, is a connoisseur of powerful knockouts, with which he achieved all his victories. His main strength is a devastating blow. However, he also strives to immediately "turn off" all the strengths of his opponent, and in this he succeeds brilliantly. Beterbiev is an excellent maneuverer in the ring and knows how to prioritize a fight. He is considered one of the most dangerous boxers of the present time.

There is no clear favorite in this match, as the chances of both athletes are equal. The decisive factors will be the little things and luck. Who will be on their side remains unknown.

It is interesting to note that it is already known who the winner of this match will fight. His opponent will be The Ring heavyweight champion Jay Opetaya. Therefore, both contenders for the title of absolute world champion should already think about a possible change in the weight category.
