Povetkin in first fight. Miller in his second fight of the year and Pulev in his 3 fight of the year.

 

Miller will likely fight Whyte next. According to Hearn, Miller will fight Joshua in 1 or two fights.

"Firstly, I accepted an offer to fight Povetkin," Flores said. - I also accepted the offer to fight with Sergei Kuzmin. The guys from the "World Boxing" made identical offers to ten different boxers, and then they chose one. Now Kuzmin meets with Amir Mansur, and I hope, Amir will knock him out. "

"Secondly, I'm not a spare rival for Povetkin," Flores added. - I wanted to fight with Povetkin and in the same way with Kuzmin. I refused the offer to be a reserve rival for Povetkin, because I want a guaranteed fight. I'm not going to be spare for Povetkin if I do not get paid for training, and I will not fight at least on the undercard. It's silly to prepare for a fight with Povetkin, and then stay with a bill of 25 thousand dollars for a training camp. I wanted to fight Povetkin and I wanted this fight, but I do not want to get into trouble. "

 

Cruierweight Adam Balski (11-0, 8 KO) beat the Demetrius Banks (9-3, 4 KO) in the category of junior heavyweight champion Adam Balski.

The favored Pole had fought very cautiously since the first gong, not striving at all costs to win ahead of time. Defensively, the opponent was only in the third round to move to a decisive offensive, hitting the athlete from Kalisz with strong crouch hits.

In the fourth episode, Balski sent an American to the boards. Tymex Promotions fought back in the fifth round, but the attacks in the next rounds were not as effective and the judges decided 80-70, 80-71, 79-72.

Adam Balski betrayed after the last gong that already in the first round of the duel suffered a broken jaw. Kaliszanin straight from the hall went to the hospital.

He was inactive because K2 promised him activity but never delivered. He needed to sit out his contract with K2. But right now he is a free agent.
