Beterbiev called victory over Yard luck

Before the knockout, the British boxer led on points.

The title fight on November 29 in London with Briton Anthony Yard was very difficult for Artur Beterbiev.

After seven rounds, the holder of the IBF, WBC and WBO light heavyweight titles was inferior to his opponent on points.

However, a champion is a champion, Arthur waited for his moment and knocked out the Briton in the eighth period of time.

After the match, as always modest Beterbiev, pushed his own merits far into the background.

Addressing the fans, the athlete said: “Did you like the fight? This is not my merit, but my coach and it's just luck. I must say, Yard gave me a good fight ... ".

A number of experts really noted that this was not the best fight of the Russian. However, only one moment was enough for him to finish the fight like a champion.
