Ekaterina Bivol, the wife of former light heavyweight world champion, Dmitry Bivol was seen reacting happily following the latter’s undisputed title fight defeat to the unbeaten, Artur Beterbiev overnight in Saudi Arabia, after accusing the Russian puncher of domestic violence.
Headlining last night’s massive title fight with compatriot, Beterbiev overnight in the Middle East, Dmitry Bivol battled over the course of 12 rounds with his fellow gold holder, to a controversial and much-debated majority decision (114-114, 115-113, 116-112) — dropping his championship and his unbeaten record as a boxer to boot.
Battling well in the later rounds against the undefeated world champion, Beterbiev, Bivol has already been lined up for a title rematch with the now-undisputed titleholder according to broker, Turki Alalshikh.
