‘It is beneficial for the sport of boxing when we see big names and personalities facing off against each other. That is the philosophy we have in the IBA, as the best should fight against the best. The fight between Beterbiev and Bivol was a great battle. Both boxers gave it their all in the ring, and we enjoyed this rivalry so much. We have big plans for the future, so I recommend that everyone prepares to tune in for those upcoming announcements, 2025 will bring us so much to look forward to with our sport,’ President Kremlev claimed.
