DESTROYED! | Dmitry BIVOL (RUS) vs Robert BERRIDGE (NZ) Fight

On February 23, 2017, at the Forum Boxing Club in Nizhny Tagil, undefeated light heavyweight prospect Dmitry “Bivol” stepped into the ring with rugged New Zealand veteran Robert “The Butcher” Berridge for the Interim WBA Light Heavyweight Title — and put on an early showcase of his rising star power. From the opening bell, Bivol controlled the pace with crisp combinations, sharp angles, and a polished jab that consistently kept Berridge off balance. Berridge showed heart and toughness, but he couldn’t match Bivol’s speed or precision. In the fourth round, Bivol’s timing and power finally broke through, sending Berridge to the canvas. With his opponent struggling to defend himself, the referee stepped in at 0:47 of Round 4, giving Bivol a dominant TKO victory and the interim world title. 📍 Date: February 23, 2017 📍 Location: Forum Boxing Club, Nizhny Tagil 🏆 Result: Bivol wins by 4th-round TKO 🏆 Title: Interim WBA Light Heavyweight Championship 🔥 This was one of the first nights the world saw what Dmitry Bivol was capable of — precision, composure, and finishing instincts that would soon take him to the very top of the 175-lb division. -------------------- ╔═╦╗╔╦╗╔═╦═╦╦╦╦╗╔═╗ ║╚╣║║║╚╣╚╣╔╣╔╣║╚╣═╣ ╠╗║╚╝║║╠╗║╚╣║║║║║═╣ ╚═╩══╩═╩═╩═╩╝╚╩═╩═╝ to the channel people 00:00 Intro 1:30 Round 1 5:05 Round 2 8:40 Round 3 12:18 Round 4 -------------------- Follow me insta @charlessalbox facebook @charlessalbox #boxing #usaboxing #bivol #boxingfights
