Plans are being drawn up for Anthony Joshua to fight Kubrat Pulev in July after their June 20 date at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium was postponed.
While a new slot has not been formally announced for the rearranged heavyweight world title fight, Joshua’s promoter Eddie Hearn confirmed to Sportsmail on Friday that July 25 is ‘likely’ and that the preference is still to host the clash at Tottenham.
However, there are numerous complications around the new date, with no current end in sight to the coronavirus crisis and the possibility that Tottenham might need the stadium for their remaining Premier League fixtures even if it does clear.
