Unbeaten light heavyweight champions, Artur Beterbiev and Dmitry Bivol, had a face-off in Saudi Arabia during the Tyson Fury vs. Francis Ngannou event. The meeting generated excitement about the potential undisputed championship next year. While Bivol expressed uncertainty about a rematch with Canelo Alvarez, Beterbiev is set to defend his titles against Callum Smith on January 13th. The WBC's reluctance to sanction the fight due to the Russian-Ukrainian war complicates matters. Bivol, who hopes to fight in December or January, also aspires to face the Beterbiev-Smith winner. The WBC's decision will determine whether Bivol gets a chance. Bivol remains unconcerned about the Canelo rematch, as he aims to face the best fighters and earn a belt. He expressed interest in the Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk fight on December 23rd. In the end, both Beterbiev and Bivol are focused on their careers and facing the best in their respective divisions.
