Decisive fight: Bivol and Beterbiev will meet in Riyadh for the title of the best!
This fight represents the culmination of one of the most exciting and even rivalries in modern boxing. The first fight took place in October 2024, when Artur Beterbiev, then undefeated holder of the WBC, IBF and WBO titles, defeated Dmitry Bivol by decision in a tense fight. The subsequent rematch saw Dmitry Bivol display incredible will and strategic mastery, defeating his opponent on points and inflicting the first defeat of Beterbiev’s career, thereby taking away part of his championship titles.
The final of the trilogy is scheduled for November 22, 2025. Everything is on the line! The winner will not only lead the division, but will also become the first undisputed world champion in the light heavyweight division of the four major organizations (WBA, WBC, IBF, WBO), collecting all the major titles under one umbrella. This chapter of history will be written in the ring of Riyadh.
Over the 24 rounds of confrontation, Bivol and Beterbiev have studied each other thoroughly. Not just a fight is expected, but a high-level game of chess with fists, where every move and every mistake can be decisive. They know each other's strengths and weaknesses as well as their own.
Artur Beterbiev (WBC, IBF) is the embodiment of power and destructive force with both hands; a man with an iron will. His goal is to prove that the first defeat was an accident and to regain the lost titles. Dmitry Bivol (WBA Super, IBO, The Ring, WBO) is a master of impeccable technique with phenomenal defense and an intellectual approach to fighting at a distance. He is looking to cement his victory and go down in history as a legend.
Riyadh is rapidly becoming the boxing capital of the world, and the modern ANB Arena, equipped with the latest technology, will be the perfect venue for this historic event.
Considering the results of previous fights, the stakes and the deep understanding of the opponents, the third fight promises to be the most fierce and spectacular in their entire series. Neither will give up without a fight.
Tickets for the fight between Dmitry Bivol and Artur Beterbiev at the ANB Arena are now available for purchase. Given the status of the event and the limited number of seats at the prestigious ANB Arena, we strongly recommend purchasing tickets in advance.
A fight for the absolute championship is a rare and extremely prestigious achievement in boxing. The winner will go down in history as the first "undisputed" king of the light heavyweight division in years!
