    Comments Thread For: Dmitry Bivol 'Happy to Fight Eleider Alvarez' on December 8

    ATLANTIC CITY Dmitry Bivol believed entering his light heavyweight title defense Saturday night that he was headed toward a showdown with Sergey Kovalev. Preliminary negotiations began before Saturday's HBO doubleheader for Kovalev to battle Bivol in a 175-pound title unification fight December 8. Kyrgyzstan's Bivol (14-0, 11 KOs) did his part by defeating durable South African Isaac Chilemba (25-6-2, 10 KOs) by unanimous decision in the 12-round opener of HBO's broadcast from Etess Arena at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino.

    I hope Kovalov exercises his rematch clause and if loses the retires. That was a perfect punch at the perfect time. Lets see if lightning can strike twice. It was a fun fight! Im down to see a rematch.

        Bivol seens to me to be too green for Alvarez. Alverez showed great patience and calmness in the Kovalov fight I felt his corner did an EXCELLENT job keeping him cool and calm as we even knowing he was probably down on the scorecards.

          I will be happy to see this fight. The LH division is waking up from the slumber.

            Bivol out boxes Alvarez and stops him late. Would be a really good unification fight betweent 2 undefeated guys though

                Hell yeah! Make it happen. Alvarez vs. Bivol, Gvozdyk vs Stevenson (I wish). Throw in Beterbiev somewhere and we may have an undisputed LHW champ, and a likely member of top5 P4P.

                  Yeah I think your right??? His body even looks like someone who is mostly on the liquid diet.

                    WBC ordered Stevenson vs Gvozdyk... I don't know if Yvon Michel would let his other belt holder Alvarez into a unification fight next...
