Dmitry Bivol seemed cowardly in the presence of his teacher, the undisputed champion of semi -marked weight, Artur Beteriev, during the confrontation of last week at TNT Sports Boxing. His conqueror intimidated him and did not show the mental fire he needed to have the opportunity to win his revenge on February 22 in Riyadh, which is in 19 days.
The pressure of Beterbiev mentally broke Bivol The last time, and it is likely to happen in the rematch but much earlier. This fight could end early if Bivol does not run. It looked like a basket that Artur in October last October, and could be much worse this time.
Bivol (23-1, 12 ko) has talked about throwing more blows and being more aggressive in the rematch. It does not seem possible. Beterbiev is stronger and much harder than him. It is built for war, and if Bivol changes tactics when choosing to fight this time, it will be easy for Artur.
The former AB champion of 175 pounds, Bivol, has sounded as a problematic person who remakes what went wrong in his defeat against Bederbiev on October 12. You can say for looking at it that has been winking in thatreproducing him and angry because he did not stop and fought.
Bivol seemed terrified when Bederbeiv began to harass him as he had done to his previous opponent, Callum Smith. Through the first 5 1/2 rounds, Bederbiev had allowed Bivol to hit and run without coming after him. He seemed worried about being hit by the speed combinations that Bivol had been launching.
Something changed in Bederbiev in the sixth when Bivol hit him with a combination of three blows to the head that made the crowd roar. That sequence enraged Beterbiev, and he seemed to tell himself: “I’m already taking this.”
From there, Bederbiev fought as if he didn’t respect Bivol’s blows. He just wanted to approach enough to land his, which he did, but he required a lot because Bivol entered into survival mode.
“I think I have enough power to detain everyone in the semi -stated weight division,” Dmitry Bivol told Dazn when asked if he could eliminate Artur Berbiev.
