Uncrowned has Artur Beterbiev vs. Dmitry Bivol 2 live results, round-by-round updates, highlights, ring walks and start time for the Beterbiev vs. Bivol 2 fight card on Saturday at the Anb Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Undisputed light heavyweight champion Beterbiev defends his WBA, WBO, IBF, and WBC belts against the former WBA champion Bivol in a hotly-anticipated title rematch, which sits atop a card that is being declared by some as the best in boxing history.
Beterbiev (21-0, 20 KOs) and Bivol (23-1, 12 KOs) delivered a tremendous contest in their undisputed championship clash this past October in Riyadh. On that occasion, Beterbiev edged a controversial majority decision over Bivol, with the majority of viewers both at home and in the arena feeling that Bivol had done enough to have his hand raised at the end of 12 electric rounds
As a result, Beterbiev and Bivol meet in an immediate rematch for all four belts on Saturday.
In the co-main event, Joseph Parker (35-3, 23 KOs) defends his WBO interim heavyweight title against Martin Bakole (21-1, 16 KOs). Parker was supposed to challenge IBF heavyweight champion Daniel Dubois in Saturday’s co-feature, however Dubois was forced to withdraw just days out from the event due to illness, leading Martin Bakole to step in as a last-second replacement and save Parker’s spot on the show.
Two other full world title fights also line the card, as Shakur Stevenson (22-0, 10 KOs) defends his WBC lightweight crown against another late replacement in Josh Padley (15-0, 4 KOs), and Hamzah Sheeraz (21-0, 17 KOs) makes his first attempt at world honors by facing the reigning WBC middleweight titleist Carlos Adames (24-1, 18 KOs).
