Bivol vs. Arthur for WBA, IBO titles in Saudi Arabia

WBA light-heavyweight champion Dmitrii Bivol (21-0) will look to unify titles, when he meets on Saturday night in Saudi Arabia, Britain’s IBO World champion Lyndon Arthur (23-1).

It will be the only fight of the big event in Riyad, Saudi Arabia, that will be for title.

“I saw Arthur’s fights versus Anthony Yarde and saw his last fight versus [Braian] Suarez,” Bivol told ESPN. “I could tell he uses his jab and tries to counterpunch with his right hand. Counterpunchers are dangerous because you don’t see the punches, so I have to be very careful against him. I need to be focused all fight, and treat him seriously. I think that when we signed the contract to fight Arthur, Saudi Arabia said it wanted to see my future fight with Beterbiev there. I believe it can happen. I have to win this fight to keep moving forward to my goal of becoming undisputed world champion.”
