Lineal and WBC champion Adonis Stevenson gets his chance to stake his claim as the best in the division as he will use the free TV platform to defend his belt against former 168 pound champ Sakio Bika.
Stevenson has one goal-stopping the never-before stopped Bika.
I think that can happen as Bika is fighting his first fight as a light heavyweight.
It's a chance for Stevenson to prove his worth after two less than impressive bouts and stoke the fire for a unification bout vs WBA/IBF champ Sergey Kovalev
The opening bout see steamroller Artur Beterbiev against former WBA champ Gabriel Campillo.
Campillo was the first name opponent that Sergey Kovalev faced and was crushed in three,but has been very durable in his bouts against anyone else.
It's an opportunity for Beterbiev,who holds amateur wins over Kovalev,to show his worth for potential bouts with Kovalev,Stevenson or even big Quebec draw Jean Pascal...
