Beterbiev and Bivol met the media for the final time ahead of their rematch. At this point, the hype is meaningless. Arguably the biggest non-heavyweight fight in boxing, if not the biggest boxing match this year, is so close both men could sense it.

Artur Beterbiev and Dmitry Bivol headline the event with their hotly anticipated undisputed rematch, after the former swept all four light heavyweight belts last October. Joseph Parker and Shakur Stevenson will meanwhile tangle with late arrivals, after Martin Bakole and Josh Padley were handed the call of a lifetime to step in this week.
