Bermane Stiverne returns to the ring<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Former WBC heavyweight champion Bermane Stiverne (25-3-1, 21 KOs) is training very hard to fight prospect Joe Joyce (7-0, 7 KOs), who won an Olympic silver medal in 2016<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The bout will take place on February 23 at the O2 Arena in London, as part of the James DeGale vs. Chris Eubank card.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Stiverne has been inactive since he was knocked out, in the first round, by the current WBC world champion, Deontay Wilder, in 2017.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The former champion has promised to show his true power in the fight with Joyce, promising a knockout win.<\/p>\n

“I want to apologize to my fans and fans for what happened in the ring when I challenged Deontay Wilder for the world title in my last fight.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

“That was not me, but a shadow of myself, a fraud, my mind was not attached to my body, my heart was not in the fight, I was there only in name.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

“After the fight, I searched my soul and swore that I would never fight again or dedicate my life, as never before, to regain my world heavyweight title, I decided to go after the championship.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

“I went to the mountains, to the desert, I went on a diet, I lived a life of sacrifice and deprivation to become a combat machine, I packed a thousand rounds, ran hundreds of miles and worked my body in the best possible way. in the pursuit of my WBC world title.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

“I’m going to knock out Joe Joyce and show that I’m ready to get back to the elite.”<\/p>\n
