Kathy Duva, promoter of former light heavyweight champion Sergey Kovalev, said that her fighter is not going to retire and will return to the ring before the end of the year. "Sergey will fight until the end of the year, in the coming weeks we will announce our plans," Duva said.
According to preliminary information, Cuban Sullivan Barrera, who is also on the contract with the Main Events of Kathy Duva, may become Kovalev's rival. However, Duva herself declined to comment on this matter.
"I cannot comment on the information on the negotiations," Duva said.
