The ex-wife of Dmitry Bivol has sensationally revealed the injuries that Artur Beterbiev can exploit in their undisputed boxing light-heavyweight world title showdown next month.

On October 12, the two undefeated Russian stars put it all on the line in the Middle East as part of Riyadh Season to decide who is the number one 168 pound fighter on the planet. And ahead of the mega clash, WBA champion Bivol’s former partner Ekaterina Bivol has slammed her ex-husband as a ‘coward’ and has told Beterbiev just how he can come out on top in the ring.

The Bivols ended their 16 years of marriage in the summer, and ever since then Ekaterina has taken to social media to expose the 33-year-old, also accusing him of domestic violence and not paying child support bills for their two children. And in her latest outburst, Ekaterina claims Bivol has a wealth of injuries that Beterbiev – who reigns as the IBF, WBO and WBC champion – can take advantage of.

Her message read: “I want to tell you everything I know: he has a stress fracture of a vertebra in his back, all his hands have been operated on and not just once, one elbow for sure, very sore knees, his left ear is constantly swelling.

“It has been broken many times, and fluid has accumulated in his eye many times, sometimes he can’t see well. But the main thing is that he is a coward! We need your victory, Artur.”
