NEW YORK. — Age-defying Bernard Hopkins, trying to become an undisputed light-heavyweight boxing world champion at 50, will fight unbeaten Russian Sergey Kovalev in November, promoters announced on Monday. No exact site or date for the bout was announced, although promoters said it would be in early November on the East Coast of the United States, making New York or Atlantic City likely choices.
