WBA world heavyweight champion Arsen Ghulamiryan (27-0, 18 KOs) announced the signing of a contract with the promotional organization Boxxer. In November in London, the 35-year-old boxer is due to fight Richard Riakpo (16-0, 12 KOs).

The representative of France had his last professional fight in November, and this was his return to the ring after a three-year break. Recently there was information that Gulamiryan could fight Tommy McCarthy.

For Riakpo, this will be the first fight for the championship belt in his professional career. In January, the Briton beat Krzysztof Głowacki ahead of schedule.
