Bivol’s X Post reveals intention: Avoiding Benavidez, looking for a Beterbie trilogy to ensure a lucrative struggle
The indisputable champion in the lightweight category Dmitry Bivol gave a clear signal today to X that he intends to fight the trilogy with Artur Beterbiev, not to face his mandatory WBC David Benavidez in the conflict that the world wants to see.
Bivol (24-1, 12 ko) told his followers to X that “Waiting for the next move with my best team.” He added the name of Turki Alalshikh with the box Matchro and his manager Vadim Kornilov. This can only mean one: Bivol wants the next trilogy with a big money against Beterbieva (21-1, 20).
Skipping Benavidez
It makes sense for David Benavidez to be X’d out equations To fight buffalo because he would probably beat him, which would ruin everything. It is more critical that the buffalo holds its titles because it is more useful to fight Golden Goose, Canel Alvarez than David Benavides.
Canel’s bait
This business move ensures that the buffalo has a more chance of holding goldfish to Mamlje Canelo to the fight. We already know that he will not fight Benavidez because he is too talented.

Turks said this week He is no longer interested in In the struggle between the mandatory WBC, David Benavidez, despite the struggle ordered by the World Boxing Council. He sees the big picture. Above all, the buffalo must stick to these titles to seduce Canela, who will only fight him. He does not want to have anything to do with Benavides or the artura of Beterbiev.
Trilogy first
It is still not certain that Bivol will win the trilogy with the former indisputable champion Beterbie’s later this year. However, Dmitry has a much greater chance of defeating him with a movement than he would be against the “Mexican monster” of Benavidez.
In the rematch of Beterbiev-Bivol 2 last month on February 2nd. The buffalo pulled him out in the second half when Beterbiev stopped hitting and only followed him around the ring. It was still very close, and Bivol won the decision on a majority of 12 rounds.
If you count the rounds that made Beterbiev win [1, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 12]He should have been rated as a draw. That would ruin the chance for the trilogy, so it is not a surprise that the buffalo got a victory. I scored it as a draw.
