Dmitry buffalo wins Artur Beterbiev in the decision to Split points to request the world’s light title in Saudi Arabia.
Judges were achieved in Sunday’s struggle in Riyadh 114-114, 116-112 and 115-113.
The previous meeting last October, when they both went to the finger like unbeaten champions, ended with the exact same result, but for the Russian Borne Canadian Betrievo who added the WBA belt to your WBA, WBA and IBF.
This time, bifolle, 34, was better in the night, moving at speed and introducing a fight with his chin with an older opponent, now 40, with determined and classic combinations.
Outcome 1-1 Opens the way to the inevitable third conflict between the two.
“Actually, I didn’t want another fight, it wasn’t my choice, but no problem. Let’s go to the third fight,” Beterbiev, who didn’t shake the buffalo’s arm, said in the ring after the results were announced.

Bivel said it was worse for any challenge, but I need a break after his efforts.
“I want to cure myself a little and come back,” Rus said, who finished fighting with blood at the top of the left eye.
“I didn’t have so much pressure like last time. I just wanted to work from the first round to the end of 12. years. I’ve done a lot and won this.
“I was better, I pushed me more, I was more confident, I was easier and I just wanted to win so much today.”
Buffel had a better opponent in the first three rounds, but the champ found his rhythm in the fourth in a wire struggle from the first, but still with little to separate two.

At the final ring, neither boxer can be sure of the outcome, waiting for the results to read without celebrating in advance.
“I don’t want to talk about the decision – it’s hard. Congratulations to the buffalo team,” Besterbiev said, who could request a final circle.
“I thought this struggle was better than the first fight, but we’ll see. Now I’m my time to get back.”
