John Scully, member of the coaching staff of the unified world light heavyweight champion Artur Beterbiev, shared his thoughts regarding the upcoming confrontation between his ward and the holder of the WBA belt Dmitry Bivol.
“Twelve rounds with Beterbiev is a very long period, and you can imagine how ready Arthur will be for this fight. You'll realize you've never seen anything like it when the ring hits. His priority is pressure and that's what he'll do.
Bivol will understand that Beterbiev is not Alvarez. He's not a little guy. Dmitry will not be able to hold our fighter on the ropes and stand next to him with his hands down. Arthur will not hide behind the block. This is a different fight. If you give your preference to Bivol based on the fight with Canelo, it is not reasonable on your part,” the Boxing News specialist quotes.
Let us recall that earlier the chairman of the Saudi Arabian Entertainment Authority, Turki Al-Sheikh, said that he plans to organize the long-awaited unification in June.
