Pulev confirms Anthony Joshua fight at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

Kubrat Pulev says he has signed a deal to fight British world champion Anthony Joshua at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday 20 June.

Bulgarian Pulev is the mandatory IBF challenger to take on Joshua, who holds the WBA, IBF and WBO titles.

Joshua won back the belts with a unanimous points victory over Andy Ruiz Jr. in December.

“I am happy to have the opportunity to show the world how strong I really am,” said Pulev.

It will be Joshua’s first fight in the UK since beating Alexander Povetkin at Wembley in September 2018.
