Dmitry Bivol looks to collect all the titles and complete his dream of becoming undisputed champion.
Light heavyweight titleholder Dmitry Bivol spent some time talking to boxing media members during today’s grand arrival for his weekend fight with Artur Beterbiev, and fielded questions about his preparations for the fight and what this chance at undisputed means to him. Check out some excerpts from Bivol below.
“Many times people ask me ‘how you going to — what are you going to change for this opponent, what you going to change for that opponent?’ Most of time time I’m working on my good skills. I cannot add something new, I can only improve my skills — it will be better.
“And this is my recommendation for all the fighters. You don’t need to change too much something, you need to prove you good skills.”
“He has a good punch, he’s strong, he’s really strong, he’s good in endurance, and he pressures a lot. And of course to get used to these things, sparring partners help.
“My skills, everybody knows if they watch my fights. I like to use the jab, I like to move.”
“It means a lot. It’s like final step in my journey. I had this dream from when I moved to pro from amateur boxing and now I have this chance.”
“It’s not about personality, it’s about belt. Of course fighting for the belt is much more meaningful for me, to be marked in the history. It’s a lot. Of course it’s much more meaningful.”
