WBC President Mauricio Suleiman announced that Artur Beterbiev's next opponent will be Callum Smith, the mandatory contender for the WBC world title belt owned by Arthur.

ā€œBeterbiev is one of the best champions of our time, the best light heavyweight. This was his toughest fight ever (Anthony Yarde fight - note) and he will need some rest. His next opponent is WBC mandatory challenger Callum Smith,ā€ said the functionary.

Recall that this morning Beterbiev won by TKO in the eighth round against Anthony Yarde.
