Comments Thread For: WBC orders undisputed Dmitry Bivol to face interim titlist David Benavidez next

[BirdSong]

Turki will decide what happens next and will pay accordingly for everyone to follow suit.

well if he benches bena then he needs to pay him well too!!! put him on the undercard of the trilogy fight!! and make it worth his while and a shot at the next winner sounds ok i guess if bena bivol is not next we shall see

[champion4ever]

makes sense here i read that bena and bivol had very good competitive sparing over the years so they know each other bena sounds VERY confident of beating bivol as well its odd i dont think ive read bena wanting to fight beter tho???? that fight would be a BELTER and would really get me back interested in boxinig again the two of them would just go right at it im sure until one falls!!! bena and bivol lwould be good too but thats a UD and there is very very little doublt of that

Benavidez has openly stated in the past that he was willing and open to taking some step aside money in order for them to have their trilogy. I hope he really means it.

I'd rather see Bivol vs. Beterbiev 3 & Canelo vs. Benavidez...let the winner's fight each other!

this version of Alvarez would need a rematch against Bena

Alvarez would get a sprain ankle facing now prime Bivol

Alvarez gets clowned as hard as the Floyd fight but takes more punches in the process

it’s a good deal for Bena

get a bonus and face an easier opponent in the meantime

I prefer Trilogy.

Dont really care about Benavidez much.

Artur deserves an immediate rematch

Artur gave Bivol one

Artur finished round 12 strong and took it

I believe Bivol wins fight 3 wider. The rounds will always be competitive due to their styles and skill levels

After being outboxed in 2 Artur will push harder in 3 for the ko

going ko opens a fighter up

This time Artur gets hurt possibly dropped but not stopped

Artur has good defense and chin with excellent recovery

[JakeTheBoxer]

Benavidez must realize Bivol won't fight him before second half of 2026.

After triilogy Bivol likely takes an easy fight

this is the correct way to match your fighter to prevent burnout

who would you match Bivol with in 1H 2026 for easy fight?

Bivol could be back in 2026 as early as April if he doesn’t take a lot of punishment in the rematch

Bena in Oct 2026

Callum Smith or Buatsi.

Callum Smith or Buatsi.

Smith wouls help Bivol ready himself for Ben’s long jab

Buatsi for Ben’s infighting
