Dmitry Bivol thinks that Canelo is more powerful than Zurdo Ramirez
Bivol acknowledged that he spent a lot more energy fighting Canelo due to the need to be focused all the fight, having to work every round to win them.
“About power, of course Canleo is more powerful. He punched harder, but Ramirez used combinations. He threw three punches, Canelo one or two. Canelo’s faster.”
Dmitry Bivol talked about his preparation against Zurdo Ramirez
Due to Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramirez havin a southpaw stance in the ring, Dmitry Bivol said he changed his preparation for the fight a little bit and switched sparring partners to have them match the Mexican’s physical attributes.
“If I’m going to fight Ramirez, I take more who are taller, who are southpaw. Some combinations and movements are a little bit different, on the left, on the right”, Bivol told DAZN Boxing Show.
He also added that he wants to fight Artur Beterbiev next as he has had 10 title fights defending his belt and has won them all and is looking for a new challenge.
