Flavius ​​Biea climbing the world rankings & becomes Romania’s No.1 boxer

Flavius ​​Biea vs. Ivan Alvarez

Last week, Romanian Flavius ​​Biea took another step towards the world title whilst defending his IBA Intercontinental belt after defeating Mexican Ivan Alvarez by points, with a 97-93 after ten rounds.

He has jumped from top 100 to top 60 in the world (58 world ranked) & became the number 1 Romanian boxer!

Biea: “I knew I was going to have a very hard fight. Like me, he is in the top 100 of the world. I am glad that I was able to bring a strong event here in Timisoara and not just stories. I had a hard fight and I’m glad I got over it. I want the next fight to be even harder, because you have to prove it: to be the best you have to beat the best. After a two-year break, I am very happy with this fight. I’m glad that this fight went to points, because I needed to know where I was, what potential I had and how much I could give. Probably after this match I will be in the top 60 in the world. I’ll sit at the table with my team and we’ll settle. If there is a new event organized by us, it will be with a boxer much more top like this, who will take me to a world title as soon as possible.”
