Oleksandr Usyks first bout at the research division is in peril after an doping test was returned by Saturdays opponent Tyrone Spong, says promoter Eddie Hearn.
32, usyk, gathered all of four world titles at his move and cruiserweight up a division has been anticipated.
But Surinamese-Dutch fighter Spongs position is in doubt following Voluntary Anti-Doping Association (Vada) testing.
Weve book opponents standing by, tweeted Hearn.
We have been approached by Vada to notify us that theres been an adverse finding in Tyrone Spongs evaluation. Its been sent to the State of Illinois commission.
Hearn said there will be an upgrade on Tuesday.
Usyk is scheduled to confront Spong in the Wintrust Arena of Chicago in his first bout when he defended all of four world cruiserweight names.
Spong, 34, spent a lot of his combat career in mixed martial arts and also competed before winning his first 14 struggles as a fighter, in kickboxing.
Vada needs fighters or promoters to pay for testing for the duration of a fight build-up and functions in MMA and boxing. It said Spong was a part of its testing programme in 20 September.
The Las Vegas-based Vada was accountable for tests which caused the likes of American Jarrell Miller and has made a glowing reputation in boxing along with Mexicos SaulCanelo Alvarez facing bans.
