Bivol and Beterbiev to meet for the third time in the ring in the capital of Saudi Arabia

The upcoming meeting of two ambitious boxers promises to be one of the most exciting events for fans of quality fights. Both athletes demonstrate impressive results and unique styles, which makes the outcome of their confrontation completely unpredictable.

On the night of February 23, 2025, a rematch between Russian boxers Artur Beterbiev and Dmitry Bivol took place in Saudi Arabia. Their first fight took place on October 12, 2024 in Riyadh, where Beterbiev won by majority decision, unifying the WBC, WBO, IBF and WBA titles. The February fight drew boxing fans and journalists from around the world, eager to see the spectacular spectacle. From the first moments, it was clear that Bivol had revised his strategy: he moved faster, maneuvered more skillfully, and kept Beterbiev at a distance, not allowing him to land his powerful punches. While Beterbiev looked a bit slow and could not find his rhythm. The title of the undisputed light heavyweight champion of the world was at stake.

The fight lasted twelve rounds, during which Bivol dominated thanks to his precision and impenetrable defense. His jabs were accurate, and his right hands landed. Despite Beterbiev’s characteristic pressure and resilience, he was unable to turn the tide of the fight. The judges ruled in favor of Bivol, who became the new absolute world champion in the light heavyweight division, avenging the defeat in the first meeting and confirming his status as one of the best boxers of our time.

This victory was Dmitry's twenty-fourth in the professional ring with only one defeat and allowed him to win the title of absolute world champion in the light heavyweight division.

Dmitry Bivol is famous for his technical and calculating fighting style. He moves masterfully around the ring, has an excellent sense of distance and accurate punches. His defense is one of the best in the division, which allows him to effectively neutralize his opponents' attacks. Victories over such famous boxers as Saul Alvarez significantly strengthened his position in the world rankings.

Artur Beterbiev is a Russian boxer with Canadian representation, who holds the WBC, IBF and WBO world champion titles in the light heavyweight division. Known for his aggressive fighting style and devastating punching power, he has incredible physical strength and strives to finish fights early. Most of his victories have been achieved by knockouts due to his ability to constantly put pressure on his opponent.

Both fighters are at the peak of their careers and have all the necessary qualities to win. Bivol's strategy with an emphasis on technique and defense is opposed to Beterbiev's aggressive style with an emphasis on knockout punches. This fight will be a confrontation of two boxing schools, where each of the athletes will strive to impose their game and prove their superiority. The outcome of the rematch remains a mystery: both boxers are equal in strength, which adds intrigue to this uncompromising fight.
