Russian Dmitry Bivol is the current WBA world champion in the light heavyweight division. He has successfully defended his title nine times. However, he is now facing significant problems due to allegations of abuse from his ex-wife.
The beginning of Dmitry Bivol's career indicated that he could become an excellent boxer. The Russian proved time and time again that he was developing into a superb athlete. Finally, the time came for his first professional fight, which he fought in 2014. At that time, he defeated Jorge Rodriguez Oliveira by technical knockout in the 6th round.
However, just three years later he became a world champion of the WBA organization. The title fight with Australian Trent Broadhurst ended in the first round. At the present moment, he can still boast about this achievement, having successfully defended it nine times.
Now, however, Bivol has a problem, but it is not related to sport. In August 2023, the 33-year-old divorced his wife Yekaterina after 16 years of marriage.
No information on this topic has appeared on his social media. It was a different case with his wife, who decided to speak up about this issue.
Ekaterina accused her husband, as well as his mother-in-law, of physically and psychologically abusing her. She attached her photos to confirm her words. She also added that her father prevented her from reporting this to the police.
"And that's how it ended. He told my father that I hit myself! You all are scum! My father forbade me to go to the police. The kids saw everything! After his mother's party, I lost 17.6 lbs in 2 weeks" - wrote in a report on her official Instagram account the ex-wife of the boxer.
Bivol has something to fear, because if the allegations turn out to be true, he could even lose the belt he has defended nine times. At the moment, everything suggests that we will not see him in the ring anytime soon.
