Robert Garcia, like every boxing fan, is excited for next month’s light-heavyweight encounter between Dmitry Bivol and Artur Beterbiev.
The undisputed clash, live on DAZN on October 12, will see two impressive styles clash as Bivol’s skills will be up against the power of Beterbeiv.
Both fighters head into the bout in impressive form as they each look to protect an unbeaten record when the first bell sounds.
Garcia, an elite trainer who has worked with some of the sport's biggest names, has given his verdict on the clash.
“Can’t wait for that one man, that’s going to be a fight that’s hard to pick the winner. I lean towards Bivol by decision,” said Garcia when speaking to Fight Hub TV.
“I just think he’s got that style that he’s not going to allow Beterbiev to step in and get close, I don’t know.
“But also, I wouldn’t be surprised if Beterbiev steps in and hurts him and knocks him out ’cause that guy has so much power he can knock anybody out, but I lean to Bivol by decision.”
