Hearn: I would really like Alvarez to fight Bivol

The head of the promotional company Matchroom Boxing Eddie Hearn does not mind working with the undisputed world champion in super middleweight Saul Alvarez (57-1-2, 39 KOs) if he chooses to move up in weight to share the ring with the reigning WBA Super light heavyweight champion Dmitry Bivol (19-0, 11 KOs).

“I think this is a potential next step. I would really like him to fight Dmitry Bivol. Then he has Joe Smith and Artur Beterbiev, who are very likely to fight each other. He can fight Bivol, and then - if he wins - he will enter the ring with the winner of that fight to become the undisputed champion in the light heavyweight category.

I would be happy to see him take all the belts for the second time, becoming undisputed, but this should motivate him and Eddie Reynoso. Next week they will make a decision, ”BoxingScene quotes Hearn.
