Dimitry Bivol reversed his fortunes by coming on down the stgretch against Artur Beterbiev and earning a majority decision win on Saturday. Bivol (24-1, 12 KOs) avenged his only pro loss, also a MD12, to Beterbiev last October.
Bivol won the first two rounds with sharper punches and more sustained action against Beterbiev, who came forward as always to press the action. But rounds four through six saw Beterbiev (21-1, 20 KOs) take control and outpunch Bivol, who wasn’t as mobile and much less effective with his shots.
