Joshua's back to training, Pulev fight in November

Anthony Joshua (23-1, 21 KOs) returned to training after a recent left knee injury and will be ready to fight  Kubrat Pulev (28-1, 14 KOs) by November, probably in the UK.

“Joshua is already training, he sends me photos. There is no danger that he will have to rest for a long time,” said Eddie Hearn, promoter of the IBF, WBA and WBO heavyweight champion.

Just a few weeks ago, the head of Matchroom Boxing claimed that the fight would almost certainly take place outside the UK. Joshua, however, wants to hold this fight in front of his fans, and Hearn believes in the possibility of organizing a meeting in the UK with the participation of spectators.

One of the options is a banquet evening. Guests could watch the duel sitting at the tables which would allow observing the appropriate distances and sanitary requirements. It is assumed that in such a scenario 1000 people will be able to see the fight live.
