"Skills, footwork, in-ring thinking and composure. If you don't know how to move, stop when necessary and engage in exchanges, if you don't have a strong jaw and stamina, Arthur will walk right through you. It takes someone special to defeat him. Fortunately, we have someone very, very special," said the functionary.
Recall, the confrontation between Bivol and Beterbiev will take place on June 1 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. At stake will be the title of absolute world champion in the light-heavyweight division.
