January 6, 2022 - Noel Mikaelian will headline the LNK Boxing event in Latvia on Saturday February 12.

The Armenian-German cruiserweight (25-2, 11 knockouts) will face DR Congo’s Youri Kayembre Kalenga (27-6, 20 knockouts) for the WBC Silver title in the night’s main event.

Mikaelian, a former WBO international cruiserweight champion, will be performing for the first time since joining Probellum’s ranks last month.

“I’m very much looking forward to returning to the ring and competing against Youri Kayembre Kalenga, who is an experienced fighter,” said Mikaelian.

“After signing for Probellum in December, my immediate focus turned towards ensuring I’m in the best possible shape for my next bout, and that will certainly be the case.

“After a long time out of the ring, I’m eager to remind the boxing world of my capabilities and I will be ready for the fight next month.”

“We’re delighted to confirm Noel will be headlining February’s LNK Boxing event in Latvia,” added Richard Schaefer, President of Probellum.

The IBA Intercontinental title will also be up for grabs when Latvia’s Ralfs Vilcans (12-0, 5 knockouts) faces Germany’s Timo Rost (12-1, 4 knockouts) in front of a home crowd.
