Sergey Kovalev faces Isaac Chilemba today in Russia.
Today in Russia, Sergey Kovalev will defend the WBA, IBF, and WBO light heavyweight titles against Isaac Chilemba, as Kovalev looks to pass his final tune-up test before a November date with Andre Ward.
HBO will air the fight in the United States, but on tape delay tonight at 10:15 p.m. ET. Our live coverage will begin with the BoxNation broadcast in the United Kingdom at 12:30 p.m. ET. The fight also will air live on Match TV in Russia.
Kovalev (29-0-1, 26 KO) has been dominating his opposition for the last six years running, and will look to become the first man to ever stop Chilemba (24-3-2, 10 KO), a solid veteran contender who will obviously be looking to pull off a humongous upset in this fight.
If you missed our preview earlier from this weekend, you can check that out before the fight goes live. Join us this afternoon for an incredibly rare bit of Monday live boxing coverage!
