Dmitriy Kel May 4, 2022, 5:15 p.m.

Russian boxer Alexander Povetkin shared his expectations from the fight between the holder of the WBA light heavyweight title Dmitry Bivol and the absolute world champion in the second middle division Saul Alvarez.

“I will definitely root for Bivol. I think he has every opportunity to win. He can win on points, he can knock out. Bivol is a good guy.

What I like about him is that when I miss, I start to get angry, climb forward, I myself start to miss, and Bivol does everything carefully, confidently. This is probably right, ”Povetkin said in an interview with the Usachev TV YouTube channel.
