WBA World Heavyweight champion Alexander Povetkin's next title defence will be televised LIVE and exclusive on the UK's first and only fight channel BoxNation (Sky Ch. 456/Virgin Ch. 546).

 

Unbeaten Russian Povetkin (23-0, 16 KO's) makes the second defence of his title against German hero Marco Huck (34-1, 25 KOs) at Stuttgart's Porsche-Arena in Germany on Saturday 25th February.

 

It will form an explosive double-header alongside Nathan Cleverly's WBO World Light-Heavyweight title defence against Tommy Karpency that will be televised LIVE from Cardiff's Motorpoint Arena earlier in the evening.

 

Including Robert Stieglitz's WBO World Super-Middleweight title defence last Saturday night, Povetkin v Huck will be the SEVENTH world title fight to be televised by BoxNation in the coming month.  Forthcoming attractions are:

Friday 20th January: Derry Mathews v Emiliano Marsili (IBO World Lightweight Championship)

Saturday 4th February: Yoan Pablo Hernandez v Steve Cunningham (IBF World Cruiserweight Championship)

Saturday 18th February: Vitali Klitschko v Dereck Chisora (WBC World Heavyweight Championship)

Saturday 25th February: Nathan Cleverly v Tommy Karpency (WBO World Light-Heavyweight Championship)

Saturday 10th March: Ricky Burns v Paulus Moses (WBO Interim World Lightweight Championship)

BoxNation veiwers' will have already seen Povetkin's eighth round stoppage of Cedric Boswell last December as he targets a showdown with one of the Klitschko brothers.

 

Dereck Chisora could upset plans if he beats Vitali, the WBC Champion, next month then Povetkin could be a potential fight down the line for the Brit.
