MOSCOW, Sep 21, Ivan Orekhov. In the event of a rematch between the Russian undefeated World Boxing Association (WBA Super) light heavyweight champion Dmitry Bivol and Mexican Saul Alvarez, the Russian boxer will again prevail, and his opponent will have a harder time than in the first fight, said Bivol's coach Dmitry Kirillov. Bivol May 8 in Las Vegas (USA ) defeated Alvarez via unanimous decision to defend his title for the third time. After the fight, the Mexican demanded a rematch. On November 5, Bivol will defend his title against Mexican Gilberto Ramirez. «The fact that he (Alvarez) is overrated was evident when he fought Bivol. And before that, I never considered him a superstar in terms of technology. He is powerful, explosive, but not working on his feet, standing still. The audience loves him, a competent choice of opponents — that's how he became a star. As a coach, I will say: he is overrated and not that good, he is not the number one in the world — there are guys much more skillful. Just with new opposition his true level began to manifest itself, «said Kirillov. «In a rematch with Bivol, Alvarez will get even worse — this is absolutely true. This is the general opinion. Dmitry did not reveal himself in the first fight: the image of Saul strained Bivol — he was very accurate, worked economically But he won, that was enough — in a rematch he can finish the fight brighter if he psychologically approaches more confidently.Prospects can be drawn a lot, but let's get back to the fact that Dmitry needs to box on November 5. That's when let's assume — everything can change at any moment, «added Kirillov. Alvarez on September 19 in Las Vegas (USA) defeated Kazakhstani Gennady Golovkin by unanimous decision and defended the titles of WBA Super, World Boxing Organization (WBO), World Boxing Council ( WBC) and IBF super middleweight.
