No the main event probably hasn't even started yet or just is about to. The Povetkin fight was the semi-main

On the undercard.... Alexander Povetkin (10-0, 8 KOs) kayoed former cruiser champion Imamu Mayfield (25-9-1, 18 KOs) in his most impressive fight to date. After a relatively slow first round, Povetkin rocked his opponent with a devastating right hook; then dropped him down to the canvas. Mayfield was able to beat the count and survive the round. In round three, the Russian fighter went toe-to-toe with his foe and rocked the American with the same shot and finished him off with the straight right for the count. Another spectacular performance for the 2004 Athens Olympics super heavyweight gold medalist.

is this one being billed as "The Battle to Determine Who Gets Their Ass Whipped by James Toney/Wladimir Klitschko" ??? No, this fight is being billed as a "Rocky" story in that Peter Okhello got a chance of a lifetime against the (WBC) heavyweight champion.
