Russian heavyweight Sergey Kuzmin is aiming to become a mandatory challenger to world title by the end of 2018.
The 30-year-old Kuzmin is being fast-tracked to a world title.
With only 11 wins (8 by KO), he will take a serious step up in class by facing veteran Amir Mansour on November 27th in Moscow. Despite his age of 45, Mansour is always in exceptional shape, punches hard and is widley regarded as one of the more durable fighters in the heavyweight division.
The current champions are Deontey Wilder of the WBC, Joseph Parker for the WBO, and Anthony Joshua holds the WBA, IBF and IBO.
