Bids for Kovalev - Yarde moved for one the week

The management of the World Boxing Organization postponed the date of the auction for the organization of the bout between light heavyweight world champion Sergey Kovalev (33-3-1, 28 KOs) and official challenger for his title Anthony Yarde (18-0, 17 KOs) to April 15. Earlier, the tender was scheduled for April 8.

The minimum amount for the tender is set at 300 thousand dollars. The champion will receive 75% of the winning amount, and the challenger will receive 25% if the duel is held in Russia or in the USA. If the host country is another country, the proportions will be 80 to 20.

Kovalev's promoter, Kathy Duva, has already told Frank Warren, who is Yarde’s promoter, that she has already reserved an arena in Russian Chelyabinsk for June 1 for conducting this fight.
