British IBF, WBO, WBA and IBO champion in heavyweight Anthony Joshua (23-1, 21 KOs) has announced his next fight. Thus, he will meet with Bulgarian Kubrat Pulev (28-1, 14 KOs). The fight will take place on the 30th of May at the Vodafone Arena – home of Turkish football club Besiktas in Istanbul. Joshua vs Pulev odds predict the winner of this battle.

Pulev is Joshua’s mandatory challenger for the IBF heavyweight title. Meanwhile, to secure his WBO champion’s title British boxer has to meet with Alexander Usik (17-0, 13 KOs) from Ukraine. However, as the IBF had claimed the right to organize the fight earlier, Pulev is now the main challenger for Joshua. Online gambling sites in Turkey are already offering their bets on the winner of this meeting.

British and Bolgarian will fight for the IBF title

Anthony Joshua has agreed to a deal to fight Kubrat Pulev in his next bout. The heavyweight’s co-promoter John Wirt has lately confirmed this information. The pair had been due to clash at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium back in October 2017. However, then the Bulgarian had to pull out with injury and was replaced by Carlos Takam (33-2-1, 25 KOs). Anyway, we hope that this time the fight will happen.

British boxer is a very strong competitor for Pulev. Joshua is a two-time unified heavyweight champion. Moreover, he has held the WBA (Super), IBF, WBO, and IBO titles since December of 2019. Joshua is ranked as the world’s best active heavyweight by BoxRec and third by The Ring magazine. Thus, the 1xBET gambling site is offering 1.11 odds for him to secure his champion’s title. Bookmakers see the British boxer as a favorite in the fight with Pulev.

Joshua vs Pulev odds to win the fight

Bolgarian boxer Kubrat Pulev, known as “The Cobra”, has an impressive 28-1 record in his career. He held the European heavyweight title twice between 2012 and 2016. However, the one loss came in Pulev’s title fight when Wladimir Klitschko defeated him in Hamburg back in 2014. The most recent victory the Bulgarian had was over Rydell Booker (26-3, 13 КОs) in California in November of 2019.

Moreover, Kubrat is ranked as the world’s eighth-best active heavyweight by BoxRec and tenth by The Ring magazine. Thus, he still has chances to win the fight with Joshua. Pulev has 6.1 odds for his victory at the 1xBET. We wish good luck to both champions. And may the best man win! If you want to check the latest Joshua vs Pulev odds, visit the 1xBET gambling site.
