Dmitry Bivol candidly assessed Arthur Beterbiev's skill level.

Former world champion Dmitry Bivol participated in a quick interview for DAZN, where he addressed questions regarding his upcoming rematch opponent — the undisputed world champion Artur Beterbiev, as reported by Caravan.kz.

The host posed questions to Bivol that he could answer with either "Yes" or "No." When asked if the judges' decision in his first fight against Beterbiev was correct, Bivol affirmed with a "Yes." However, when questioned about whether Beterbiev is indeed the strongest opponent he has faced in the ring, Dmitry hesitated but ultimately managed to respond: "Yes."

Bivol also expressed confidence that he does not necessarily need to knock out Beterbiev to secure a victory. At the same time, Bivol humbly does not consider himself the "face of boxing," nor does he view the light heavyweight division as the best in boxing.

Earlier, there were rumors about a potential cancellation of the Beterbiev-Bivol rematch, but these have not been confirmed.
