Eddie Hearn reported that the fight between Alen Babich (11-0, 10 KOs) and Lukash Ruzhansky (14-0, 13 KOs) for the vacant WBC world title in the bridge weight will probably take place in the first half of March.
“Babich learned the hard way what boxing politics means when you are close to a world title fight. Before that, he was very active and had his last fight in May. First he was supposed to fight for the interim belt, and now he has been appointed to fight for the full-weight belt, ”said the British promoter.
“We wanted to organize this fight in early February, but Ruzhansky was not ready for this date. Everything points to the fact that we will see this fight in early March,” added Hearn.
Last year, Babich won on points against Adam Balsky. Ruzhansky in his last appearance in the ring knocked out Artur Shpilka.
