Eddie Hearn won the purse bids for the organization of the fight for the regular welterweight WBA belt. Now Alexander Besputin (13-0, 9 KOs) and Radzhab Butaev (12-0, 9 KOs) will battle for this title on November 30 in Monaco.

Hearn's competitor in the tender was Besputin's promoter Bob Arum, who wanted the fight to took place on October 18 in Philadelphia. However, Hearn has offered 550 thousand dollars, and that was enough to get the right to organize this intriguing bout.

The belt that will at stake was recently owned by Manny Pacquiao. Now the Filipino is a full-fledged champion and Besputin vs Butaev fight should decide a serious contender.
