The return of Canelo Alvarez against WBA light heavyweight champion Dmitry Bivol is all set to headline a Matchroom event on May 7 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. Prior to finalizing the fight, Mexican P4P king Alvarez had various options available beforehand. However, he opted to take a trip back to the 175 lbs after successfully conquering the 168 lbs division as its maiden undisputed champion. Having beaten three undefeated champions and a mandatory contender from December 2020- to November 2021, Alvarez will meet another undefeated champion in Bivol next. However, that’s not the only eye-grabbing factor for the DAZN PPV. According to reports [https://www.boxingscene.com/filip-hrgovic-zhang-zhilei-co-feature-on-dazns-canelo-bivol-show-7--164640?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter], a heavyweight showdown between Zhang Zhilei and Filip Hrgovic will also feature in the card. The undefeated heavyweight giants will collide to determine the IBF title’s mandatory challenger. That said, one of them can challenge Oleksandr Usyk [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/oleksandr-usyk/] in the future. This massive addition gives the boxing fans another reason to keep an eye on Alvarez vs Bivol. Both Zhang and Hrgovic are on an unprecedented run and deserve a crack at the title soon. That said, they need to pick one another out of their respective ways. As both men will possibly feature as a co-main event of the night, one of their undefeated records will blow off. [https://www.essentiallysports.com/boxing-news-hes-a-psychopath-logan-paul-reveals-why-he-wont-fight-jake-paul/] Adding to that, both men are top-level knockout artists. China’s ‘Big Bang’ Zhang has 18 KOs in an active record of 23-0-1, while Croatian boxer Hrgovic has 12 KOs on a 14-0 record. This levels them up for an interesting fight as they share a similar 6’6” height. However, a southpaw, Zhang, can stylistically trouble an orthodox in Hrgovic. CANELO ALVAREZ VS DMITRY BIVOL- HOW TO WATCH THE EVENT? According to Box Rec [https://boxrec.com/en/event/850055], the event is yet to have a complete undercard formed. The fight will be available live on DAZN at $59.99 PPV for subscribers and $79.99 PPV for non-subscribers. The tickets will also be available soon on several websites [https://www.t-mobilearena.com/events/detail/canelo-vs-bivol]. Eddie Hearn [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/eddie-hearn/]’s Matchroom has a stacked roster and with two big matchups already on board, we can expect a stellar full fight card. If Canelo Alvarez beats Dmitry Bivol in the main event, he shall earn a ticket to meet Gennady Golovkin [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/gennady-Golovkin/] in an epic trilogy.

Dmitry Bivol

Dmitry Bivol Net Worth 2024, Next Fight, Wife, Record &amp; More Who is Dmitry Bivol? Dmitry Yuryevich Bivol is a professional boxer, currently holding the WBA and IBO Light Heavyweight Championship. Renowned for his technical prowess and calm demeanor, Bivol stands out as a boxer who prefers a methodical approach over aggressive brawling. His smooth, classical boxing style, which emphasizes precision and control, is a reflection of his upbringing and his fatherâ€™s advice to avoid the brutal, bloody spectacle often associated with the sport. Born on December 18, 1990, in Tokmok, Kyrgyzstan, Bivol rose to prominence with an undefeated record and a series of impressive victories, most notably over Saul &#8216;Canelo&#8217; Ãlvarez in 2022. YEKATERINBURG, RUSSIA DECEMBER 12, 2021: Boxer Dmitry Bivol (C) wins a bout against boxer Umar Salamov for the WBA Super light heavyweight title as part of the RCC Boxing Promotions event at the Uralets cultural and entertainment centre. Donat Sorokin/TASS (Photo by Donat SorokinTASS via Getty Images) Bivol&#8217;s journey from a small town in Kyrgyzstan to global stardom is a testament to his dedication and the sacrifices made by his family, who relocated to Russia when he was 11 to give him better opportunities in boxing. With 23 professional wins and zero losses, he has become one of the top names in the light heavyweight division, earning respect from both hardcore boxing fans and casual observers alike. Dmitry Bivolâ€™s Early Life Dmitry Bivol was born to Yuri and Yelena Bivol in Tokmok, Kyrgyzstan, a town then part of the Soviet Union. His father is of Moldovan descent, while his mother is of Korean heritage, born in Kazakhstan. After they met in Russia, the couple settled in Kyrgyzstan, where Dmitry spent the first 11 years of his life. His early childhood in Tokmok was challenging, with limited access to proper training equipment and opportunities for advancement. Despite these challenges, Bivol developed a passion for combat sports after being inspired by Jackie Chan films. He initially practiced wushu but soon transitioned to boxing, finding a deeper connection with the sport. His father, Yuri, a key figure in his development, always advised Dmitry to avoid showcasing blood or brutality in the ring, urging him instead to focus on beautiful, classical boxing. In 2002, the family relocated to Saint Petersburg, Russia, in search of better opportunities for Bivolâ€™s boxing career. Despite financial struggles, including living with nine people in a two-bedroom apartment, Bivolâ€™s talent began to shine as he gained recognition, winning the European school championship and twice becoming the Russian national champion by the age of 18. This set the foundation for his successful amateur and eventual professional career. Dmitry Bivolâ€™s Wife and Children The 33-year-old was previously married to Ekaterina Bivol, with whom he shares two sons. Ekaterina, a journalist and sports enthusiast, played an integral role during Bivolâ€™s rise in the boxing world. However, their relationship took a downturn following Bivolâ€™s victory over Canelo Ãlvarez in 2022. According to reports, the fame and fortune that came with Bivolâ€™s growing career led to tension between the couple, ultimately resulting in their separation and divorce. Ekaterina has publicly accused Bivol of being stingy with child support, alleging that he pays only $1,100 per month despite his considerable earnings. Since their separation, Bivol has focused on his boxing career and is reportedly single, avoiding the limelight when it comes to his personal life. Despite the public dispute with his ex-wife, both Bivol and Ekaterina have expressed their love for their children, with Bivol continuing to support his sons financially. Dmitry Bivolâ€™s Net Worth 2024 As of 2024, Dmitry Bivolâ€™s net worth is estimated at around $10 million. Much of his wealth comes from his fight earnings, with his highest payday to date being the $5 million he earned from his fight against Saul â€˜Caneloâ€™ Ãlvarez in 2022. Other notable fight purses include $2.5 million for his victory over Gilberto â€˜Zurdoâ€™ Ramirez and $1.9 million for his bout with Lyndon Arthur in 2023. In addition to his earnings inside the ring, Bivol has secured multiple sponsorships, including partnerships with BOXRAW, BetMGM, RCC Boxing, and the Russian Copper Company. These endorsements further supplement his income and elevate his profile in the boxing world. Bivol&#8217;s upcoming undisputed fight with Artur Beterbiev on October 12 is expected to significantly boost his earnings, with reports suggesting he could earn as much as $10 million for this undisputed title bout. The fight is projected to draw significant attention, potentially bringing in high pay-per-view revenues that could increase his final payout.

(Photo by Richard Pelham/Getty Images) Dmitry Bivolâ€™s Career Timeline 1990: Dmitry Bivol is born on December 18 in Tokmok, Kyrgyzstan. 2002: His family moves to Saint Petersburg, Russia, where Bivol begins receiving more structured boxing training. 2006-2014: Bivol enjoys a successful amateur career, becoming a two-time Russian national champion and a European school champion. 2014: Bivol turns professional, quickly establishing himself as a rising star in the light heavyweight division. 2016: Wins the WBA interim light heavyweight title. 2017: Promoted to full WBA Light Heavyweight Champion. 2022: Achieves global recognition after defeating Saul â€˜Caneloâ€™ Ãlvarez via a unanimous decision in a major upset, solidifying his position as one of the top pound-for-pound fighters. 2024: Prepares for a much-anticipated undisputed title fight against unified Light Heavyweight Champion Artur Beterbiev. Dmitry Bivolâ€™s Partnerships and Endorsements Dmitry Bivol has secured several lucrative endorsement deals, which contribute to his overall earnings. His most notable partnership is with BOXRAW, a leading brand in boxing apparel and fitness gear. Bivol is also sponsored by BetMGM, RCC Boxing, and the Russian Copper Company, which further elevates his marketability in the sport. These endorsements, along with his fight purses, have played a significant role in building his $10 million net worth. Dmitry Bivol&#8217;s partnership with Eddie Hearn and Matchroom Boxing began in early 2019 when Bivol signed a co-promotional deal with Matchroom Boxing. This deal was a significant move for Bivol, who had already established himself as a WBA Light Heavyweight Champion but sought to further his career on a global stage. The partnership allowed Bivol to defend his title while being exclusively featured on DAZN, a key player in boxing streaming services. His first fight under this deal took place in March 2019, when he defended his WBA title against Joe Smith Jr.â€‹ Eddie Hearn, chairman of Matchroom Boxing, has been a vocal supporter of Bivol, particularly highlighting his technical boxing skills. Hearn&#8217;s role has been instrumental in securing high-profile fights for Bivol, including his career-defining victory over Saul &#8216;Canelo&#8217; Ãlvarez in 2022, which significantly raised Bivolâ€™s international profile.
