Povetkin and Rudenko will compete in two championship belts

The battle between the Russian heavyweight Alexander Povetkin and Ukrainian Andriy Rudenko will be the title.

The first of July in Moscow in the Central fight of the evening of Boxing, the native of the Dnieper Andrey Rudenko will hold important match in his career – the Ukrainian will meet with Alexander Povetkin, who until the recent doping scandals was in the top five best fighters in the division.

The winner of the fight Povetkin-Rudenko will become the new owner of minor titles vacant WBO and WBA International.

A press conference was held in Moscow in a friendly environment. Both fighters congratulated each other, and Povetkin promoter Andrey Ryabinsky said that the political background to the confrontation between Russia and Ukraine to the events in the ring nothing will not have.

Alexander Povetkin: “I Have good form. Rudenko prepared well, this is his chance and he will be for him to cling to. I think that will be a good fight. My sparring with Rudenko? It was a long time ago. I think Andrew is something learned, something I learned for myself. A big role it will not play”.

Andrey Rudenko: “the Proposal was received with pleasure, it is a great experience for me. Alexander is a very good fighter, he has a lot of fights behind him and a good school. This fight will be special for me”.
