Former world champion in two categories, ESPN analyst Timothy Bradley flattered Russian WBA Super light heavyweight champion Dmitry Bivol (21-0, 11 KOs), identifying him as a favorite in a potential fight for the “absolute” against Artur Beterbiev (18 -0, 18 KOs), who owns the other three prestigious titles.
“Bivol is a tough guy. He beat the heavyweight. Ramirez entered the ring with a weight of about 90 kg, but he still pressed him. Bivol is a tough dude,” admits Timothy.
“If Bivol meets Beterbiev, I bet on Bivol,” Bradley said. “Listen, Bivol knows all aspects of boxing. He knows how to act both at a distance and close, his control of events in the ring is simply fantastic. I know that Beterbiev’s strike power is something with something, he really has fists made of stone. Because of this, in such a fight, the chances are even, and Beterbiev is also smart. But the legs are where the main difference lies. Bivol’s legs are much better. I think he will outbox Beterbiev.”
By the way, Bivol knows that Beterbiev also wants to fight him.
