Musician Vasily Vakulenko, known as Basta, admitted that he wants to organize a return fight between Dmitry Bivol and Mexican Saul “Canelo” Alvarez.

The boxers met in the ring in May, Bivol won by unanimous decision and defended the WBA Super light heavyweight title.

– Basta promoter – everything? Or should we wait for Gazfight 2?

– We will definitely do it as soon as we find the money in order to hold not fraudulent nonsense, but a really worthy tournament that would correspond to the first one. Including the quality of the picture, and the quality of the battles. For us, the main thing is not quantity, but quality. The Gazfight fighters, together with the fighters of Andryukha Bupas (coach – Ed.), constantly take part in competitions and show themselves worthy. So it’s better to do something small, but of high quality, that makes sense. And not to exchange for nonsense, which will leave nothing behind, – Vakulenko is quoted by Komsomolskaya Pravda.

— Is it hard to do serial events, and not one-time ones?

“It all comes down to money. Over the course of our career, our creative association has held a huge number of successful mass concerts. We did everything turnkey. So we have a lot of experience here. It was not too much work for us to organize all this in order to get a good rating result. How to do it is clear. As soon as we form a package for the fights and the budget in general, we will start right away. We’re all set.

– Is there a dream fight around which you would like to organize Gazfight 2?

Bivol – Canelo again.

Will a rematch be interesting?

– I dont know. I asked Dima, he never answered. Well, it would be interesting.

– They dream more about the duel Bivol – Beterbiev.

“This is a different kind of fight. This is the cosmic level, and Bivol-Canelo-2 is legendary.
