When Artur Beterbiev and Dmitry Bivol first met in the ring, it set the boxing world ablaze with controversy and heated debates. Their initial clash last October left fans divided, with many questioning the judge&rsquo;s decision that awarded Beterbiev the unified championship. Now, the two Russian-born warriors are set to settle the score once and for all in what&rsquo;s being billed as &ldquo;The Last Crescendo.&rdquo;<\/p><p>There was a time when boxing&rsquo;s biggest fights were held in Las Vegas, Madison Square Garden, or Atlantic City. Those days seem long gone as Saudi Arabia has become boxing&rsquo;s new mecca, with the Kingdom&rsquo;s unlimited resources luring the sport&rsquo;s biggest stars to the Middle East.<\/p><p>This trend started with Anthony Joshua&rsquo;s rematch against Andy Ruiz Jr. in 2019. And now Riyadh hosts another massive card that would make even the most jaded boxing fan drool.

The 40-year-old unified champion defied age expectations in his first bout with Bivol. He showed that his blend of technical skill and devastating power remains intact.<\/p><p>Though born in Russia, the Canada-based fighter has weathered political complications to maintain his status atop the light heavyweight division. His methodical pressure and bone-crushing power make every moment of his fights filled with tension.<\/p><p>Dmitry Bivol enters the rematch with a chip on his shoulder after feeling robbed in their first encounter. With a record of 23-1 (12 KOs), Bivol&rsquo;s only loss came to Beterbiev in that controversial decision. The 34-year-old is known for his exceptional footwork, defensive skills, and high boxing IQ.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Dmitry Bivol is training for revenge, as he prepares for his scheduled undisputed world title fight with Artur Beterbiev, as part of The Last Crescendo, February 22, in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/DIZ8kxsCU7\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/DIZ8kxsCU7<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Ring Magazine (@ringmagazine) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ringmagazine\/status\/1890521421052293285?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>February 14, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>Remember when he schooled Canelo Alvarez in their 2022 clash? That performance showed just how special Bivol can be when he&rsquo;s at his best. His ability to control distance with his jab and quick combinations makes him one of the most technically sound fighters in the sport.<\/p><p>In the heavyweight division, Daniel Dubois has resurrected his career in spectacular fashion. After being criticized for his heart in the Joe Joyce fight, he silenced doubters by capturing the IBF title and defending it with emphatic knockouts. At just 27, the British fighter has 21 KOs in 22 wins, with explosive hands that can end fights instantly.<\/p><p>His opponent, Joseph Parker, has experienced a late-career renaissance. The former WBO champion from New Zealand showed tremendous heart in his wars with Joe Joyce and has put together an impressive winning streak since then. At 33, Parker&rsquo;s experience, chin, and improved boxing skills under trainer Andy Lee make him a dangerous challenge for Dubois.<\/p><p>Shakur Stevenson might be the most gifted pure boxer on the card. The three-division world champion has drawn comparisons to Floyd Mayweather with his defensive wizardry and ring IQ. Though criticized for being too safety-first at times, Stevenson&rsquo;s talent is undeniable as he continues his march toward pound-for-pound recognition.<\/p><p>Fans also must keep an eye on Vergil Ortiz Jr. as well. The undefeated knockout artist (22-0, 21 KOs) has stopped every man he has faced. He is looking to make a statement against the equally dangerous Israil Madrimov. His combination of power, speed, and improving technical skills make him one of boxing&rsquo;s most exciting prospects-turned-contenders.<\/p><p>Chinese heavyweight Zhilei Zhang has become a fan favorite with his agility for a big man and thunderous left hand. At 41, the 6&rsquo;6&Prime; southpaw known as &ldquo;Big Bang&rdquo; has shown it&rsquo;s never too late to make a run in the heavyweight division. <\/p><p><strong>(Imagn Images: ringmagazine &ndash; X)<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"mm-layout mm-layout-type-post mm-layout-slot4\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Discover The Last Crescendo fight card, start time, location, and the top fighters to watch out for in this highly anticipated event!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":14,"featured_media":21125,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_mux_skip_reasons":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[1783],"tags":[2105,2095,2106,1986,2110,2111,2112,2113],"class_list":["post-21090","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mma","tag-artur-beterbiev","tag-daniel-dubois","tag-dmitry-bivol","tag-israil-madrimov","tag-joseph-parker","tag-shakur-stevenson","tag-vergil-ortiz-jr","tag-zhilei-zhang"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.8 -

I was instantly hooked on MMA after watching the fight between Lyoto Machida vs. Gegard Mousasi back in 2014, and since then, i have been an avid writer with a deep love for the sport and its techniques, providing readers with a thorough understanding of the sport. My favorite aspect of working at The Playoffs is the creative freedom it provides. The diverse range of topics, from listicles and SEO to news articles, keeps me engaged and motivates me to continuously improve my skills! I aim to capture the excitement of the combat sports world in my writing, acting as the middleman between fighters and their die-hard fans. It is kind of like a referee, but with words!","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/zaid-quraishi-884927240?utm_source=share&utm_campaign=share_via&utm_content=profile&utm_medium=android_app"],"url":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/author\/zaid\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21090"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/14"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=21090"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21090\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":21127,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21090\/revisions\/21127"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/21125"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=21090"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=21090"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=21090"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
