The World Boxing Association (WBA) Championships Committee called off the purse bid scheduled for Tuesday, August 27 to grant the promotional rights for the Muslim Gadzhimagomedov-Leon Harth bout as both teams announced that they have reached an agreement to make the bout.
The mandatory WBA bridgerweight title fight had been ordered on August 14 and the purse bid was summoned on August 16 to take place in Houston.
However, a day before the bidding, the teams reported that they had reached an agreement to make the bout for the 224-pound crown.
The WBA will give both fighters and their teams time to submit contracts with details of the venue and date for the bout.
