Alexander was supposed to fight with the Swiss fighter Arnold Grzherzhai. However, his opponent was injured. The Ukrainian’s new opponent will be announced soon.
The fight is scheduled for November 23 in Heidelberg, Germany. The undercard will feature a fight for the WBC, WBA, WBO and The Ring world champion belts in women’s boxing between German representative Tina Rupprecht and Japanese Eri Matsuda.
