Don King Promotions and Titov Boxing Promotions have agreed terms for the clash between Ilunga Makabu and Thabiso Mchunu.
Makabu, the reigning World Boxing Council (WBC) cruiserweight champion, will be making his second defence of the title when he faces Mchunu in a mandatory fight. The date and venue for the duel have not been set.
This is going to be the second time Makabu and Mchunu fight against each other. Makabu from the Democratic Republic of Congo stopped Mchunu in 2014.
