Dmitry Bivol retained his WBA, IBF, and The Ring light heavyweight championships on May 30, 2026, turning back the challenge of Michael Eifert by unanimous decision in a one-sided contest that left no room for debate at the scorecards.
All three judges returned identical scores of 120-107, a margin that signals Bivol was in control from the opening bell to the final round. A 120-107 tally across every card indicates Eifert was unable to take a single round from the champion across the full twelve-round distance.
Why it matters
- Bivol continues to hold three of the most prestigious titles in the light heavyweight division, cementing his status at the top of the 175-pound weight class.
- The lopsided margin suggests Eifert posed little threat to Bivol's reign, which may shape the conversation around who the division's most credible challengers are moving forward.
- With all three belts retained, Bivol remains one of boxing's most decorated light heavyweights and a central figure in any future unification discussions at 175 pounds.
