World Of Boxing Wins Wilder-Povetkin Purse Bid
Updated at 12:33 PM EST, Fri Feb 26, 2016 Read More By :

By Jake Donovan

Andrey Ryabinsky's World of Boxing (WoB) has secured the rights to promote the World Boxing Council (WBC) heavyweight title fight between unbeaten champ Deontay Wilder and mandatory challenger Alexander Povetkin.

WoB - Povetkin's promoter - submitted a winning amount of $7.15 million during Friday's purse bid hearing at Grand Hyatt Miami in Miami, Florida. The only other bidder present was representatives from DiBella Entertainment, Wilder's promoter who submitted just over $5.1 million.

There is no date or venue set for the fight, despite speculation that Wilder will now have to head to Russia for his next title defense. It could very well be the case, but was not immediately established at the purse bid hearing.

"World of Boxing has won the purse bid and how has 15 days to return to us the fight contracts with the date and location of the championship fight," WBC President Mauricio Sulaiman told BoxingScene.com immediately after the purse bid on Friday. "The fight must take place within the next 90 days (May 26, 2016)."

7.15m seems very low compared to Klitschko fight.

Im betting the Russians knew Uncle Al has lint, a few quarters, and a stick of gum left in his pocket and bid way less than they couldve. Wilder loses again.
