Sheikh Al -Turki says that a triple match will be held if Dmitry Bever is victorious in the return match with the light heavyweight champion Artur Peterev, which will be held in 13 days on February 22 in the Kingdom’s stadiums in his leadership.
Ring magazine reports This Turki confirmed that a trilogy will happen if Bivol (23-1, 12 KOS) won the match on February 22nd
This is a terrible news for a mandatory WBC David BenefidizWho hopes to fight the winner of Beterbiev-Bivol 2. Fans will find it difficult to accept a third match between these two because many are already tired of seeing them fighting. Bivol is not exciting to see it, because it uses a running style-just a few fans enjoying this approach.
Beterbiev mission
We already know that Bivol will try to link him by winning the decision because he has no power and rarely tries to log in the knockout. Looking at the complaints submitted by Mitry’s Matchroom, Eddie Hearn and Pro-Bivol, BETERBIEV may need to do something unusual to win a decision on February 22. We have seen this kind of things before.
When the fighter wins in an unpopular decision, the return match often sees the former loser gave a controversial victory. As such, it will not be a shock if Bivol won the return match with a decision, regardless of how to display the battle. We hope this is the case, but things look like they are heading in this direction. If you beerbiev, you should think, “I need to go out.”
The only positivity of “The Mexican Monster” Benavidez is that BETERBIEV (21-0, 20 KOS) will win the return match with Bivol. Their previous battle showed last October that Bever could not stand in front of his strength and was forced to run and hold the last seven rounds to defeat the decision of the 12 -round majority. Beterbiev entered the battle with the last knee surgery, however it was still dominating.
BENAVIDEZ (30-0, 24 KOS) may need a temporary battle to stay busy if there is a BETERBIEV-BIVOL. BENAVIDEZ must give David Morrell a return match if this is the case because it is the best possible opponent who can fight in order to create attention in challenging the title in 175.
The battle of Benavidez-Morrell on February 1 has created a lot of attention from fans and brought in respectable PPV numbers. Benavides won a unanimous decision of 12 rounds, but he was beaten in the battle, and his face appeared as if he had lost the battle. Morel was not so much not in the end, which indicates that the weakest punches in Navidies did nothing for him.
