Andre Ward vs. Sergey Kovalev set for November in Vegas

A much-anticipated boxing match now has a location and a date attached to it.

Andre Ward is finally going to get a big fight again, assuming he can win a tune-up in the meantime. The Olympic gold medalist and longtime super middleweight champ made the move to light heavyweight earlier this year, and earned a shot at Sergey Kovelev with a March win. Now that matchup is set - for November 19th, in the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

Again, this agreement is being made on the assumption that both men will win fights in the meantime.
