Bulgaria's boxer Kubrat Pulev has pledged to donate half of his purse from the world heavyweight title fight against the current champion Anthony Joshua to help in the battle against Covid-19. The 38-year-old is expected to earn around $5 million from the fight which was originally scheduled for June 20 at the Tottenham Hotspurs stadium but was indefinitely postponed due to the outbreak. Pulev who is waiting for the mandatory IBF title challenger has a record of 28 wins out of his 29 fights.
