Dmitry Bivol will defeat Artur Beterbiev “much easier” in trilogy fight, says Eddie Hearn
Dmitry Bivol will defeat Artur Beterbiev in a much easier fashion if the two wind up having a trilogy fight with one another, according to promoter Eddie Hearn.
As we know, Dmitry Bivol defeated Artur Beterbiev last weekend in their highly anticipated light heavyweight rematch. It came hot on the heels of their first encounter, which saw Beterbiev edge out a decision win himself that some deemed to be controverisal.
Now, however, Dmitry Bivol has tied the series up at 1-1. While there are plenty of options for both men as we look ahead to the future, many feel as if it just makes sense for them to run it back for a third – and potentially final – time.
If you ask Eddie Hearn, the promoter of Dmitry Bivol, his fighter will be able to get the job done in an easier fashion than the first time around.
Eddie Hearn backs Dmitry Bivol
“There are so many fights out there. Canelo Alvarez, does he really want to roll the dice to try and become a two-weight world champion at light heavyweight?” said promoter Eddie Hearn, who is pushing for Canelo Alvarez to move up to 175 to challenge his fighter, Dmitry Bivol for his undisputed light heavyweight championship.
“Dmitry is ready for all comers, and by the way, he’s going to get better and better. If he fights Beterbiev again, he’ll beat him much easier this time,” said Hearn.

The majority of boxing fans would love nothing more than to see these two men run it back, given how iconic their feud has been up to this point in time. Of course, if it does happen, you’d have to think that Beterbiev would have a thing or two to say about this prediction, even at his age.
