Bivol Reveals He Is In Pain After Duel Against Canelo: Of Course I Was Hurt, He Hit Hard

JAKARTA - Dmitry Bivol defeated Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez to become the WBA light heavyweight champion last weekend.

The Russian made a big surprise, winning in the 12th round by unanimous decision of three judges at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

Bivol admitted that after the fight, he suffered from the fight. The 31-year-old claims he can't even lift his belt.

"Of course I got hurt. I couldn't hold my hand, I couldn't hold my belt," Bivol told Fight Hub TV.

"I already predicted this, because I saw his fight with Caleb Plant," he continued.

"Canelo hits really hard, I think everyone sees it, every time he hits he does it really hard".
