Dmitry Bivol's promoter has warned Canelo Alvarez that the best is yet to come from his fighter ahead of a potential rematch between the pair later this year.
Canelo was handed his second career defeat against the Russian on Saturday night, coming unstuck for the first time in nine years via unanimous decision in Las Vegas.
After sweeping up all four belts in the super-middleweight division the Mexican was a heavy favourite to claim another up at light-heavyweight, only for Bivol to prove too strong and too skilled over 12 rounds.
