“Definitely for Bivol, the main thing is heritage. It is created when you beat the number one pound-for-pound. But he still has a dream of becoming the undisputed world champion in his own weight.

And this is a fight for the title of absolute champion.

In women's boxing, absolute champions are now being determined. We must strive to have one champion in each weight category. The Bivol vs. Beterbiev fight is an opportunity to do that. But Dmitry must first defeat Gilberto Ramirez. This is a very difficult fight,” Hearn said in an interview with the Intu Boxing YouTube channel.
