Facing England’s Josh Warrington would afford the 22-year-old Stevenson an opportunity to become a unified featherweight champion in just his 14th professional fight.

Arum’s company also has a promotional stake in Kovalev, who gave contractual options to Top Rank Inc. as part of his deal for an immediate rematch against Eleider Alvarez that was streamed by ESPN+ on February 2.
