Fight Preview
One of the biggest fights on the boxing calendar will be staged in Saudi Arabia this weekend, as the rescheduled bout between Artur Beterbiev and Dmitry Bivol is staged.

Both stars have unbeaten professional records, with Beterbiev defending his WBC, IBF, and WBO belts. The Russian-born Canadian star has won all 20 of his bouts by knockout, but questions will be asked of the 30-year-old after pulling out of the initial date due to a knee injury.
Bivol also sports a perfect record after winning all 23 of his professional bouts. The Russian had a perfect warm-up for this bout in June after retaining his WBA and IBO belts with a sixth-round stoppage success against Malik Zinad.
There is a sense that the longer the bout goes on Saturday, the more that it will favor Bivol after winning eleven of his 23 fights by decision.
Dmitry Bivol vs. Artur Beterbiev Picks
A stunning night of boxing awaits the Middle East on Saturday, as one of the kings of the light-heavyweight division will lose their perfect record. The narrow preference is for Bivol to edge to a decision win, and his warm-up fight earlier this year could be a significant factor to consider.
