Comments Thread For: Allakhverdiev vs. Holt Being Eyed For June 20 Bout?

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

According to Alexander Belenkiy, a well-known Russian boxing journalist for "Sport-Express" daily, undefeated WBA #11 ranked light welterweight "King" Khabib Allakhverdiev (16-0, 7 KOs) will fight on June 20 at CSKA sports arena in Moscow, Russia. A proposed opponent is WBO/IBF #6 rated American Kendall Holt (28-5, 16 KOs). The winner will most probably be placed in line for a fight for the IBF 140lb title - if the reigning champion Lamont Peterson gets stripped for a failed drug test. Meanwhile, famed former multi champion Zab Judah is rumored to be visiting Moscow in order to see his possible future foe in action. IBF #1 Judah is said to be the primary contestant for the title.

Hmm, why would Kendall Holt go to Russia for this fight? They would really have to make it worth his while moneywise.

If he pulls out because it's too sunny I'll have to question his decision making.

holt will probably pull out because of snow and the arena isnt at room temperature.
