Devon Alexander vs Andriy Kotelnik looks likely for August 7th

It was revealed that legendary American promoter Don King will arrive in Lviv, Ukraine to sign a former WBA light welterweight champion Andriy Kotelnik (31-3, 13KOs) to a promotional contract. According to Gal Sports, the parties will hold a press-conference in Lviv town hall on Tuesday.

Kotelnik's deal with Don King Productions will be a three fight agreement, and the first of which is likely to take place on August 7 against WBC/IBF champion Devon Alexander (20-0, 13KOs), which is going to be televised by American cable network HBO.

Good fight for Alexander, hopefully this leads to a showdown with Bradley later this year/beginning of next.

I just hope he can break his ties with Don ASAP. As bad of job as Don has done the last few years with his guys sitting on their asses for 16 months at a time, his idiot son will screw things up even more after the old man croaks.

Will be interesting to see if Devon can stop Kotelnik, he went the distance with Khan and Maidana.

Kotelnik is a decent fighter, he went the distance with Maidana and even wobbled Khan a few times. But I think that Alexander is the real deal, he should dominate him, if not knock him out.

Wobbled Maidana a couple times and also gave Junior Witter a tough fight.

Bradley and Alexander both want to fight each other and can't. Boxing is a funny sport.

I hope they have a great undercard for this and the Bradley fight so they can hype up a super fight and get people interested.

How can Kotelnik keep Alexander from doing what Khan did to him?

Isnt Cloud vs Johnson suppose to be on the undercard?

Great double header!

Yup, I just got sick of the trolls over there. Between Caloca and the constant Pac vs Floyd bickering it became ridiculous.
