IBF heavyweight champion Daniel Dubois vs. Joseph Parker could be the main event, with the Artur Beterbiev vs. Dmitry Bivol 2 rematch the chief support for the massive February 22nd card in Riyadh.
Dubois’ fight against the defensive-minded Parker lacks excitement because it’s not a fight that fans are talking about. They’re more interested in seeing undisputed light heavyweight champion Beterbiev fighting Bivol again. Their previous match on October 12th was exciting throughout.
“I would riot if Bivol-Beterbiev is not the main event. I would pull myself from the card if Beterbiev vs. Bivol is not the main event,” said Ade Oladipo on the Ariel Helwani YouTube channel, talking about the February 22nd card in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
“It’s the two best heavyweights in the world. The only fight that would be bigger than Beterbiev-Bivol and would push it down to chief support would be Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk. Nothing else could be made that would push it down to co-main.”
