'I'm ready to battle, any time, any place': Kubrat Pulev and his promoter call on Anthony Joshua and Eddie Hearn to make fight happen behind closed doors

Kubrat Pulev has called on Anthony Joshua to make their historic fight happen despite the on-going coronavirus pandemic.

The pair were meant to face off at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on June 20 but the fight was postponed with an alternative date yet to be arranged.

But the Bulgarian and his promoter John Wirt think the clash should go ahead behind closed doors and follow in the footsteps of the UFC and WWE who have hosted events without crowds.
