Legendary American boxer Evander Holyfield confirmed his participation in the 56th Congress of the World Boxing Council (WBC).

Earlier, another legendary boxer Lennox Lewis, the famous Mexican Julio Cesar Chavez, and also the potential rival of Alexander Usik, the British Briton Tony Belli, confirmed their participation in the WBC Kiev congress.

Note that Holyfield is the only four-time world champion in heavyweight history in the history of professional boxing.

He also managed to win the title of the absolute world champion in two weight categories - the cruise and heuvite.

Recall, the 56th Congress of the World Boxing Council will be held in Kiev from September 30 to October 5. About 700 participants of the congress from 160 countries of the world will fly to the capital of Ukraine.

The initiator of the congress in the Ukrainian capital was the eternal champion of the WBC heavyweight champion, the mayor of Kiev Vitali Klitschko.
