WBC President Mauricio Suleiman announced whether a fight will be organized between the absolute heavyweight champion Alexander Usik and the interim champion of the same organization Agit Kabayel. According to the leader of the World Boxing Council, a final decision on mandatory protection for the Ukrainian boxer has not yet been made. “There will be a WBC convention in December where we will review each weight category, evaluate and make a decision on each of them. The WBC, particularly in the heavyweight division, has always been very flexible and lenient in order to provide the best fights in this category. We very actively supported the unification, which led to the absolute championship. So Alexander Usik defeated Tyson Fury, and then a rematch took place. For some reason Daniel Dubois became the IBF champion and Oleksandr Usyk was not the undisputed champion, but now he is the undisputed champion again.

The WBC has an interim champion in Agit Kabayel, it looks like he will defend his title in January. But, as I said, we will review the super heavyweight category, as well as all other categories during the convention,” DAZN quoted Suleiman as saying.. Earlier, the promoter of the interim WBO champion Fabio Wardley announced negotiations with Usyk. The promoter revealed what steps Usyk Novyny can take via Telegram and WhatsApp. Subscribe to our channels https://t. me/korrespondentnet and WhatsApp.
