Ukrainian super middle Vitaly Tyspko, IBF # 2, is awaiting the outcome of IBF champ Lucan Bute´s defence against Libradro Andrade on October 24. Tsypko will then be one of the participants in an eliminator to determine the next mandatory challenger for the titleholder.
Slovenian welter Jan Zaveck is in full training for the upcoming European title fight on October 10 against Belgian Jackson Osei Bonsu. There are stories out that Zaveck will fight some kind of WBA eliminator against Venezuelan Nelson Linares, but no such fight is sanctioned by the WBA and Zaveck himself knows nothing about it.
Italian flyweight Vincenzo Picardi, who is in the semifinals in the Olympics, is the son of Antonio Picardi, Italian champ and challenger for the European Bantamweight title.
If all goes well - and it should - in Sweden on September 5 for heavyweight Robert Helenius, who fights Dane Ingvardt Jorgensen, he will take on Swiss fighter Nikola Vujasinovic on October 4 in Bamberg on the Abraham vs Marquez bill.
Danish super middle Mads Larsen, a steady climber on the WBA ratings, will not fight again until the end of the year.
Norwegian junior welter Geir Inge Jorgensen´s long awaited shot at the vacant WBF title could go ahead in early October in Poland on a BoxingEurope promotion.
Serbian light heavy Nikola Sjekloca takes on French veteran Pierre Moreno on October 18 in Budva, Montenegro.
