Chisora-Pulev Clash in Talks, Purse Bid on March 18

By Per Ake Persson

EBU heavyweight champion Derek Chisora (20-4, 13KOs) and mandatory challenger Kubrat Pulev (19-0, 10KOs) are in negotiations for a showdown. The purse bids are again postponed, this time from March 11 to March 18. Chisora vs Pulev is effectively also an eliminator for who will fight unified champion Wladimir Klitschko when he´s past his WBO mandatory Alex Leapai. Pulev is already the mandatory challenger with the IBF.
