According to boxing columnist Dan Rafael, the fight for the WBA, WBO and IBF heavyweight belts between Anthony Joshua (23-1, 21 KO) and Kubrat Pulev (28-1, 14 KO) will almost certainly take place on December 12 at London's O2 Arena.
The boxing teams are currently finalizing negotiations, including over the boxer's purses, which will have to be significantly reduced, because the duel will not take place at the stadium, as originally planned, but in a partially filled hall.
It is very likely that the fight of Joshua and Pulev will be preceded by a fight for the vacant WBO cruiserweight belt between Lawrence Okolie (14-0-1, 11 KOs) and Krzysztof Głowacki (31-2, 19 KOs).
