Alexander Povetkin battles Bermane Stiverne for right to challenge WBC king Deontay Wilder
WBC champion Deontay Wilder will find out his mandatory challenger when Alexander Povetkin fights Bermane Stiverne this Saturday, live on Sky Sports.
The American heavyweight will be ordered to defend his title against the winner of Povetkin's WBC final eliminator against Stiverne in Russia, with live coverage starting at 5.30pm on Sky Sports 4.
Povetkin received home advantage after his promoters tabled a reported purse bid of $3million and has rebuilt his reputation with four straight stoppage wins after his first defeat, a one-sided stoppage by Wladimir Klitschko in 2013.
