Is Bivol’s strategic delay a smart movement for a mega-pag?

Artur Beeterbiev yesterday stated his frustrations on social media about the delay tactics that the unified lightweight lightweight champion, Dmitry Bivol, for his trilogy party. The former 175-pound champion beterbiev (21-1, 20 kos) questions if Bivol delays the struggle to grow old, making him beat.

Bivol’s Choice: Money Fight against Trilogy

The one who beterbiev, 40, does not come to see is that Bivol (24-1, 12 kos) seems to be in a retention pattern, waiting for the result of the Canelo Alvarez vs. Terence Crawford ‘Fight of the Century’ on September 13.

Dmitry has an excellent chance to fight Canelo in a resale if victorious. Bivol already won the Mexican star once in 2022. Recently. Alvarez said he is open to a resale. Even Crawford could be an option for Bivol if Turki Alralikh offers Omaha, Nebraska, enough money. Terence knows that his chances of winning would not be little, but if Turki offers $ 60 million for the fight, he will not say no to a Bivol struggle.

Financially, Bivol’s best interest is to wait for Canelo-Crawford’s result to get a greater salary than he should fight against an exhausting trilogy match against a 100% healthy Beterbiev that he could lose.

Given the twelfth round of his second struggle last February, where Arthur had in Bivol about to be eliminated, you can understand why Dmitry would prefer to stop the trilogy and go in the direction of a more lucrative payment day against the one who leaves the Bud Bud winner against Bud Crawford.

“He said in an interview he wants to keep it in late autumn, and then at the end of the year, and now is completely unknown when. How many years should I have for us to fight for the third time?” Artur Beeterbiev said on Instagram on Dmitry Bivol.

Beterbiev needs control of bivol reality

There is more than Bivol to win delaying the risky Beterbiev to wait for the result of Canelo-Crawford’s winner. The golden pot for Bivol would be huge compared to a third fight with Arthur, which would probably lose if Beterbiev is 100% healthy.

Bivol will finally fight Beterbiev in one or two years, but then he will have 41 or 42 years and less threatening than he will be hit now.
