Despite the fact that bookmakers have no big doubts that Saul Alvarez (57-1-2, 39 KOs) will win Dmitry Bivola (19-0, 11 KOs) On May 7, Eddie Hearn tries to whip up the atmosphere of the upcoming fight, claiming that the Mexican is facing a big challenge.

“I don’t even want to talk about the Canelo vs GGG fight until the fight with Bivol is over,” Hearn told DAZN. "I've seen Bivol's fight tapes, he looks sensational in them!"

“This could be the toughest fight of Alvarez's career, aside from Floyd Mayweather. This is a really tough duel. If Canelo passes this test, then there will definitely be a fight with GGG, but now all eyes are on May 7th!” - added the head of Matchroom Boxing.

Currently, the average odds for Saul Alvarez to win is 1.25. For the victory of Dmitry Bivol, you can get a win with a coefficient of 4.2.
