Eddie Hearn said in an interview to Sky Sports that, despite the aggravation of the situation related to the coronavirus pandemic and the new restrictions introduced, he does not intend to abandon December 12 as the date of the fight for three heavyweight belts between Anthony Joshua (22-1, 21 KOs) and Kubrat Pulev (28-1, 14 KOs).
The head of Matchroom Boxing is counting on permission from the authorities to allow fans to attend the evening, but says he is determined to have it even without spectators.
It is not yet known if fans will be able to be in the ringside on the occasion of the rematch of Alexander Povetkin (36-2-1, 25 KOs) planned for November 21 against Dillian Whyte (27-2, 18 KOs), but today there are already two possible venues for this duel - Royal Albert Hall and Wembley Arena in London.
