Russian super heavyweight Alexander Povetkin agrees to a fight Oleksander Usyk, Dillian Whyte or Luis Ortiz. This was stated by Vadim Kornilov the manager of Povetkin.
Today it was announced that the undisputed cruiserweight champion Usyk in his first fight in the heavyweights on May 18 will meet Carlos Takam, since the parties have reached an agreement. It was previously assumed that Povetkin could become an opponent for the Ukrainian.
“Povetkin agreed to fight Usyk, Whyte or Ortiz. Now we are waiting for the decision of the other side", said Kornilov.
The WBA organization also obliged Usyk to defend his title against another Russian - Denis Lebedev.
