LONDON — WBC Interim heavyweight champion Agit Kabayel is finalizing preparations for his next ring appearance, a contest he intends to use as a springboard toward a full unification bout. Kabayel secured his current status in February by knocking out Zhilei Zhang.

Since that victory, Kabayel has maintained his position through a successful defense of his interim title. His strategic focus remains fixed on a showdown with Oleksandr Usyk, the full WBC heavyweight champion.

Kabayel’s upcoming fight serves as the next step in a two-fight plan designed to force a unification opportunity. The heavyweight contender has been in pursuit of the full title since his win against Zhang.
