JAKARTA - The duel between Dmitry Bivol versus Gilberto "Zurdo" Ramirez on Saturday, November 5, in Abu Dhabi, is one of the biggest fights of the year.
Bivol will defend the World Boxing Association's super lightweight heavyweight title (WBA) against unbeaten Mexican boxer Zurdo. Of course, this promises a lot of strategy and action in the ring.
Bivol considers the mandatory fight against Zurdo as another proof that he just wants to face the best and extend his legacy.
The king came out of victory over Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez in May to defend his title and make himself stand out on the world stage.
Bivol's power lasted from 2016 until now and he has beaten every opponent he faces.
Sementara itu, Zurdo sudah jadi juara dunia di kategori 168 pon dan sejak naik kelas dia menargetkan untuk menghadapi juara WBA. Warga asli Mazatlan itu telah bekerja keras untuk memenangkan setiap pertarungan dan sekarang dia menghadapi tantangan yang sangat dia menantikan.
Zurdo had five fights in the 175 pound category where everything was won by knockout. This is certainly proof of how strong he is in this division.
Zurdo will face the toughest fight against Bivol. However, he believes in himself to win.
"I took back the championship belt on November 5! I am very proud not only to represent Mazatlan, Sinaloa, but also to the whole of Mexico and all Latinos. I can't wait to prove to everyone and to myself that I can do this. Bivol is a tough guy. He is a very good challenge. But, I will avenge Mexicans since he defeated Canelo," Zurdo was quoted as saying by Marca, Friday.
"When I heard the fight was going to be held in Abu Dhabi, I thought 'Wow, that's cool - I've never been there before.' After the press conference, I was fascinated and I was even more excited to fight there.
Bivol have 20 wins with 11 knockouts and have never lost. Ramirez, meanwhile, has 44 wins, 30 of them with knockouts.
