Lyndon Arthur is backing his former foe Dmitry Bivol to defeat David Benavidez, should the pair ever lock horns for the undisputed light heavyweight title.
Arthur faced Bivol back in 2023 for the WBA belt, losing a unanimous decision in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Bivol was too good for the Manchester man, winning every round on all three cards and registering a knockdown in Round 11. Since then, Bivol has gone on to prove he is the best at 175lbs, defeating Artur Beterbiev for the undisputed title in his second attempt in 2025.
