“I’m hungry for battle and want to be the one to unite all the belts. I see how they are afraid of me and looking for options to make sure they fight with someone else before then. I can’t believe this is not the behavior of a real-world champion. Even Mike Tyson and Holyfield come back to show what real warriors are, not like them. It will be a year now, they are spinning and ducking, just so we don’t meet. Either fight or vacate the title”. Said Pulev to World Boxing News

Despite being a serious contender, Pulev has been overlooked multiple times for the fight against Anthony Joshua. Wilder on the other hand, allegedly put forward various terms and conditions to step aside, however, this was quickly rejected.
Despite his mandatory challenge, Anthony Joshua is keen to unify his titles against ‘The Gypsy King’.

“I’m here to make history. I’m fired up. Fury’s just another opponent at the end of the day. I’m looking at Fury like he’s just another fighter. In terms of spectacle, trash-talking, two juggernauts coming together, I can’t wait,” said Joshua to British GQ
