Eddie Hearn, one of the promoters of the WBA light heavyweight champion Dmitry Bivol, reacted to the news that his client will hold a unification fight with the holder of the WBC, WBO and IBF titles Artur Beterbiev June 1 in Riyadh.

Let us remind you that this was previously announced by the Chairman of the General Directorate of Entertainment in Saudi Arabia, Turki Alalshih.

“We signed a contract for a fight with Beterbiev, and it’s great for boxing. On the same day we want to host a Matchroom tournament against Queensberry. It will be an exciting evening.

The disappointment of the postponement of the card on February 17 may be mitigated by the fact that the Joshua-Ngannou fight will take place on March 8, Fury will fight Usik on May 18, and now we have the Bivol-Beterbiev fight on June 1,” Hearn said in an interview with the YouTube channel Boxing Social .
