A unification fight for four bantamweight belts between Artur Beterbiev (20-0, 20 KOs) and Dmitry Bivol (22-0, 11 KOs) is scheduled to take place on October 12 at Boxing Night in Riyadh.

The fight was supposed to take place on June 1, but Beterbiev suffered a knee injury during training and the event had to be rescheduled. Bivol earned an early win over Malik Zinad during yesterday's 5×5 event in Saudi Arabia.

Beterbiev, who defeated Callum Smith in January, holds the IBF, WBO and WBC championship belts, while Bivol is the WBA champion.
