Isn’t Pulev mandatory for AJ at some point?

Yes, but WBO is first (which is what Whyte was probably going to be).

This a decent scrap. Helenius is coming off a decent win over Teper. Interesting that a few of these Euro HWs are starting to finally come over & fight in the US. Helenius has never fought in the US & if he fights Pulev that would be both their US debuts. Teper is fighting in Boston March 10 against TBD. I wonder if he is fighting Niall Kennedy or any other HW out of that region?

The WBO isn't in the rotation pact though; just the WBC, WBA, and IBF.

The WBA is still settling their situation, and the IBF has Pulev set but have waited on the order.

Anthony Joshua will have his upcoming fight, and then he'll either have to fight Pulev or the Wilder-Fury winner.

This will be a very good fight.

Decent undercard. If the Whyte card delivers the number of heavyweights the media has suggested then this could be one epic heavyweight night!

I just want to know who Teofimo Lopez is fighting on that card.
