World Boxing Federation (WBF) International Middleweight champion Nika Bigvava, 7-7-2 (4), from Georgia is set to defend his title for the first time on December 14 in Tbilisi.
Bigvava will take on South African Jarred “Mr. Hollywood” Silverman, a tough challenger who enters the fight with an 11-4 (6) record.
24-year-old Bigvava won the WBF title last May when he scored a clear unanimous decision over Zimbabwean Freeman Mabvongwe.
In his most recent bout he was unlucky to only get a draw against 18-1 Bohdan Sobol in Latvia, proving again that he is much better than his mediocre record indicates.
For Silverman it is his second opportunity to win a WBF title, having lost a shot at African and International Welterweight titles in 2017.
