Dillian Whyte vs. Alexander Povetkin Venue Likely NOT to be in the UK

Eddie Hearn Speaks on Whyte vs. Povetkin Venue

“We’re looking to stage all of those fights in one location, with perhaps only the Dillian Whyte fight going international. At the moment that’s an option but we haven’t made any decisions yet.

“We’ve spoken to some quite interesting ones, a couple in the Middle East and we’ve also spoken to Gibraltar and also to Monaco.

“The feeling from Dillian is he would like crowds for that fight. It’s a big fight for him and he would prefer that fight in front of some kind of crowds but even in the territories I mentioned there’s no guarantee that would be the case either. There could be crowds in Gibraltar.

“Previously we’ve been to Milton Keynes, Peterborough, Wembley, we could go anywhere really. I think the general feel from the [British Boxing} Board [of Control] is that the medical support in London is best for the fighters in terms of the specific units, so the Board would be happy at the moment for us to stay in London.

“We will be working on venues over the next few days then we will put it to the board and make a decision together.”
