The WBC world cruiserweight championship is on the line when Latvia’s Mairis Briedis (25-1, 18 KOs) and Poland’s Krzysztof Glowacki (31-1, 19 KOs) clash for a place in the WBSS cruiserweight final on June 15 at the Arena Riga in Riga, Latvia. Ukrainian superstar Aleksandr Usyk ripped the green belt from Briedis in the semi-final last year on his way to winning the cruiserweight Ali Trophy and becoming the undisputed king of the division. He has since moved up to heavyweight, meaning his titles will be contested.
Glowacki, just upgraded to full WBO world champion, vows to bring the belt home to Poland.
