Max Alperovich of Fight Promotions has advised BoxingScene.com that they have added to their growing stable of fighters, most of whom hail from countries from the former Soviet Union.

Their latest signee is Pavlo Ischenko.

"He was on 'the Dream Team' with (Vasyl) Lomachenko, (Ivegen Khytrov) and (Oleksader) Usyk. He's a 130-pounder, huge puncher, got a lot of power with his left and right hand. He was the 2013 AIBA European champion, fought in the Olympics."

As for his debut under the Fight Promotions banner, Alperovich stated - "We're looking at the beginning of July."
