Fans want to see that Dmitry Bivol moved to Cruiserweight and challenged IBF champion Jai Opetaia, for his belt after his victory over the super unquestionable champion Artur Beeterbiev on Saturday night. .
Openia would probably host a fight against Bivol because he talks a lot about him and likes his technical skills. Bivol would be very brave to increase the weight of 25 pounds, but this is similar to what Canelo Alvarez treated when he moved to 175 and fought in 2022.
Bivol’s promoters at Matchroom Boxing told the fans and the media that it is 2-0 against Beeterbiev because they feel that he deserved a victory in the first struggle last October. If they really believe it, it means that there are no more mountains to go up to 175. Bivol could also pass by cruise to challenge the king of division, Opetiaia (27-0, 21 kos).
They do not want Bivol (24-1, 12 kos) to do it because the risk of being eliminated by Opetaia would be too high. In addition, Matchroom promoters, Eddie Hearn and Frank Smith Hope, Canelo Alvare, will want to fight him in a resale. This is not very likely, but they expect it to happen.
If Bivol does not fight Beterbiev in a trilogy party and does not reach the fight against Canelo, passing the weight of cruises through a battle against Opetaia makes more sense. Let’s see if the Bivol movement, the quick combinations and the clot will work for him against Jai. There is not much difference in size between them.
Bivol options to 168
– Beterbiev Trilogy
– Canelo Alvarez
– David Benavidez
– Callum Smith
– Terence Crawford
– Anthony Yarde
The Trilogy with Beterbiev will refer to if Turki Alshikh wants to pursue it. It must be aware that fans are not so interested in seeing a third struggle with each other. They want something different.
