WBC, WBO and IBF champion Artur Beterbiev will face WBA titleholder Dmitry Bivol for the undisputed light heavyweight championship this Sat. night (Oct. 12, 2024) at Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, with the winner unifying the 175-pound straps for the very first time in the four-belt era.

“This is a dream fight for all fighters, and I’m so glad that I have this chance because a lot of great fighters didn’t get this chance. I got it. I was waiting, and I was working hard.
