A source out of Germany has advised BoxingScene.com Alexander Povetkin (17-0, 12KOs) will likely face Leo Nolan (27-1, 10KOs) on December 5 in Germany. Povetkin's side passed on a possible fight with Owen Beck and didn't reach terms with Cedric Boswell.

Nolan has never fought any fighters on Povetkin's level. He managed to upset Lou Savarese back in 2004 but was upset himself by Hector Ferreyro in 2007. Povetkin, the IBF mandatory, is taking this fight before a showdown in 2010 with champion Wladimir Klitschko.

Povetkin vs Nolan or Boswell on December 5; Beck is Out

Trainer Teddy Atlas has apparently decided Owen "What the Heck" Beck isn't a good fit for Alexander Povetkin's December 5th ring return in Germany. The ink was supposed to be "all but dried" on the contract but as is often the case in boxing, nothing is ever a done deal until the opening bell actually rings.
