Bivol on the rematch with Alvarez: “There were only words. I'm ready to fight"

WBA world light heavyweight champion Dmitry Bivol spoke about the possibility of holding a second fight with the owner of all belts in the second middle division Saul "Canelo" Alvarez.

“To be honest, initially I didn’t take this option too seriously. There were only words and words about a rematch with Canelo. I have my own path. Of course, it would be better to fight at my weight. But if you really want revenge, you need to move in this direction. And we know exactly who needs to move. I'm ready to fight.

I’m not thinking about a rematch with Alvarez, but I’m focusing on the fight against Beterbiev. There is no more dangerous striker in boxing today. I would like to test my skills in a fight with such an opponent,” Bivol said in an interview with Fight Hub TV.

Let us remember that in May last year, Bivol sensationally defeated Alvarez by unanimous decision.
