    Pulev will fight on Dec 14, opponent - not known yet

    Here's some short radio interview with Kubrat Pulev after the news about Klitschko choosing Boytsov as his next opponent was confirmed:

    Pulev: I am training in Germany. I will have a fight on Dec 14 in Neubrandenburg, Germany[this is the Braehmer vs Oliveira card]. I still don't know who my opponent will be, but we hope to know for sure by the end of the week.

    Question: What are your expectations about your opponent? Who might he be?
    Pulev: I don't know, I've said it before - whoever they put in front of me I will fight, I am not concerned whoever it is.

    Question: What do you put on the line in this fight?
    Pulev: The IBF International title and the IBF mandatory spot for Klitschko title fight.

    Question: Your promoters at Sauerland announced that not you but your stablemate Dennis Boytsov will be the next opponent for Wladimir Klitschko?
    Pulev: It was expected for them to choose Boytsov. Not only don't they choose the hardest opponent(myself), but they opt for the easiest option they have. I expect them not to give me the shot before September-October next year.

    Question: Have you fought Boytsov?
    Pulev: We've had sparrings. I think even he knows that he doesn't have a chances against me.

    Pulev threw Boytsov under the bus lol.

    I guess people might suggest Chisora could be his opponent, but I doubt it.

      Even if Pulev is up for it, I doubt Sauerland would allow it. They'd probably want to protect the mandatory spot and put him against a less dangerous opponent.

        Poolev vs a Lucas Browne or Artur Szpilka would be a fun event.

          They'll not going to let Pulev fight Wlad yet. They'll milk his contender status a little more.
