Bivol is definitely about to face one of the toughest fights of his professional career. Gilberto Ramirez is a natural light heavyweight and also a former world champion. Like Bivol, he's never lost a fight yet, and he wants to establish his own legacy in this sport.
The fight between Dmitry Bivol and Gilberto Ramirez is scheduled for November 5 in Abu Dhabi.
In May of this year, Bivol defeated Saúl Álvarez by unanimous decision. The 31-year-old Russian has 20 wins (11 by knockout) and no losses.
This May, Ramirez defeated Dominic Bösel by TKO in the fourth round. The 31-year old Mexican has 44 wins (30 by KO) and no losses.
