Anthony Joshua vs Kubrat Pulev is hardly a month away and the boxing fraternity is pumped on another level. The Brit will defend his WBA, IBF, WBO, and IBO titles this December 12, at O2 Arena, London. Joshua (23-1) who just has one loss in his professional boxing career, will be taking on the Bulgarian (28-1) who too boasts, more or less the same record, having lost to only Wladimir Klitschko in his enitre career. A win for Joshua can probably earn him a match against the undefeated Tyson Fury, whereas a Kubrat win will surely turn the tables in the heavyweight division.
