Dmitry Bivol, WBA light heavyweight champion of the world, told when his bout with Artur Beterbiev, WBC, IBF, WBO world champion, will take place.
"No, I was just told the fight would take place before the New Year. Arthur's recovery from injury is not my business. But I believe that this fight will take place. Because both sides are interested in it," said Bivol in an interview with Fight Hub TV.
Bivol's fight with Artur Beterbiev, in which the title of absolute world champion was at stake, was supposed to take place on June 1 in Saudi Arabia, but Artur Beterbiev was injured and withdrew from the fight.
