Former heavyweight champion Alexander Povetkin (34-2, 24 KOs) may fight next on July 12 in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. It is still unknown who will be the rival of the Russians in this bout.
For 39-year-old Povetkin it will be a return to the ring after last year's defeat at the hands of Anthony Joshua. In recent months the name of the boxer from Russia was mentioned in the light of possible meetings with Dillian Whyte and Oleksandr Usyk.
In the main event of the evening in Jeddah there will be a duel of former light welterweight champion Amir Khan and Neeraj Goyat. They will fight for the regional WBC welterweight belt.
