The title fight is scheduled for March 30
Bulgarian Kubrat Pulev (30-3, 14 KO) commented on the upcoming fight with the Ukrainian boxer Igor Shevadzutsky (10–1, 8 KO).
“I am confident that this will be a great show and a great boxing spectacle. All boxers will be happy with what they have achieved and will be able to finally show who they are and what they are capable of. This is a sport and we stand for sportsmanship.”
The fight will take place in the capital of Bulgaria, Sofia, at the Sofia Arena and will take place on March 30. The WBA International heavyweight belt is at stake.
Let us remind you that the Ukrainian will replace WBA Regular champion Manuel Charra (34-4, 20 KOs) in the fight. The German boxer underwent surgery on his biceps, which is why he will not be able to enter the ring against Pulev.
Shevadzutsky had his last fight in February, defeating German representative Edonis Berisha (7–1, 6 KOs). Thus, Shevadzutsky was rehabilitated for the defeat by Martin Bakole, which he suffered in April last year.
Pulev defeated Pole Andrzej Wawrzyk by unanimous decision in December 2023.
