Alen Babic Fight Added to Dillian Whyte vs Alexander Povetkin Fight Card

Dillian Whyte vs Alexander Povetkin will mark the return of boxing A-listers into action this weekend. DAZN matchmakers have staged a stellar fight card for the fans, inclusive of two title contests.

However, the card has been further blessed with an additional heavyweight matchup in the undercard. Sky Sports Boxing broke the news to the fans newly. Croatian giant Alen Babic will now face Shawndell Winters on August 22, which was quite surprising for the fans.

Dillian Whyte vs Alexander Povetkin fight card receives one more heavyweight battle

The undefeated Babic boasts of a 3-0 record in professional boxing, claiming all of his wins via knockout. Perhaps it is still too early to tout him as the next heavyweight superstar. Nonetheless, Babic has proved himself to be a skilled professional already.

Alen Babic transitioned from an amateur to a professional in July 2019. While he has already tasted victories in Italy and England, the United States market is still to witness his dominance.

He can make that happen by defeating Winters in their upcoming battle.

Meanwhile, Shawndell Winters has also amazed the fans with his unparalleled KO skills. Despite having conceded three losses, Winters has notched 12 of his 13 wins via knockout. It has been a tale full of ups and downs for Winters’ pro boxing career. Yet, he has a very strong claim to victory on any day, opposite any man.

Not to forget, the additional heavyweight matchup will only intensify the undercard for all the right reasons.

The Boxing Returns for the fans

Amid all the intense matchups lined up, Whyte vs Povetkin will possibly draft the upcoming heavyweight plans.

WBC has cited the winner of the fight as the mandatory challenger for their heavyweight gold. Thus, Whyte might challenge Fury if he bags a win this weekend.

However, Fury also needs to get past Deontay Wilder one more time. Wilder will get his title shot against Fury, ahead of the interim champion, in a bid to bring an epic trilogy saga to a close. Things can change instantly if Wilder claims the win.

Seemingly the world heavyweight division is intense at this point in time. That said, every other contender will put it all on the line inside the ring and it is going to be an alluring treat for boxing fans.
