Considerably elevating the sight of two gnarly geezers bashing the bejesus us out of each other into an illustrious theatrical event of great pomp and grandeur, replete with classical statuary, frescoes and a hovering scarlet clad angel, this sumptuous promo was created by BigTime Creative Shop for Riyadh Season.
Directed by Alan Masferrer through ProdCo, The Last Crescendo brings the rivalry between Beterbiev and Bivol to life in the setting of a grand European opera house, complete with a full symphony composed especially for the film by Philip Kay, and a cameo appearance by Michael Buffer, the renowned ringside announcer.
Over three acts, the story of Beterbiev and Bivol unfolds, from each boxer’s rise to success, the dramatic outcome of their previous match, and finally looking forward to their coming fight, which will take place at Riyadh’s Kingdom Arena on 22 February.
Filming took place over four days in Serbia, with BigTime working quickly to complete the shoot before the boxers were sequestered in their training camps to begin their intense preparation.
