According to a social media post by Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramirez, negotiations are reportedly in the works for a mega fight with the Russian light-heavyweight Dmitry Bivol.
Zurdo is fresh off a spectacular victory against Sullivan Barerra in Los Angeles. His stunning performance prompted boxing fans to match him up against guys like Dmitry Bivol and Artur Beterbiev.
Bivol has a perfect record and last fought in the UK against Craig Richards, in which he won a unanimous decision.
The skills possessed by both fighters would ensure a high-intensity match. With both fighters sporting unblemished records and Bivol’s WBA belt on the line, the stakes are high. Stylistically, this is a matchup that will certainly entertain the aficionados of the sweet science. Bivol is a highly intelligent boxer, who seems to consider every punch and supports his high boxing IQ with being well-conditioned. Zurdo brings to the table a mastery of distance and an excellent use of his length and size. In his recent bout against Barerra he displayed perfect bodywork and perfectly timed instincts. If negotiations are successful, it’s no doubt that this will be a captivating match.
