Dmitry Bivol Arrives in Saudi Arabia for Main Event Against Malik Zinad

The WBA light heavyweight champion has arrived in Saudi Arabia to fight in a title fight against Libyan fighter Malik Zinad.

Dmitry was originally scheduled to face IBF, WBC and WBO champion in his weight class, Artur Beterbiev, on June 1 in Riyadh. However, due to a serious injury to Beterbiev, the fight was cancelled and Malik Zinad became his replacement.

Malik Zinad is also a light heavyweight boxer. His professional career began in 2015, and he quickly gained recognition thanks to numerous knockouts of opponents in the ring. In a fight for the IBF mandatory challenger title, he defeated Jerome Pampellone.

Both boxers are serious opponents, and it is difficult to say who will emerge victorious from this confrontation.
