Temporary world champion in the WBC light heavyweight division Alexander Gvozdik learned the name of the opponent, who will fight in the next fight.

According to the Ukrainian himself, the next fight he will hold against the Canadian Adonis Stevenson, who suffered only one defeat in 31 bouts. This decision was taken by President of the World Boxing Council Mauricio Suleiman, who sent a letter to Carnation and his team.

It is noted that this fight will take place as a defense of the title of Stevenson.

Earlier it was noted that this meeting could take place in Kiev. It is interesting that Gvozdik did not have a single fight on the territory of Ukraine.

Despite the official statement, Gvozdik is not sure that this fight will still take place.

"History has already taught us that this has happened many times already. You can be sure that the fight will take place only when you go out with your opponent in the ring. The WBC authorized that the winner of the fight Stevenson - Jack must conduct mandatory defense against the winner of my fight within 90 days, starting from May 19, "- quotes the words of Carnation BoxingScene.

His last battle was Carnation in March 2018.
