Adonis Stevenson

The World Boxing Council (WBC) sanctioned two light heavyweight bouts: world champion Adonis Stevenson will meet Badou Jack, and Oleksandr Gvozdyk and Eleider Alvarez will play the vacant title of "temporary" ...

"Champion Adonis Stevenson will fight former WBC super middleweight champion Badou Jack in a highly-anticipated match. Mandatory challenger Eleider Alvarez will fight Oleksandr Gvozdyk for the WBC interim title, due to the fact that the mandatory defense has been delayed for several reasons. Both winners must fight immediately after their matches," said Sulaiman.
