Moses Itauma will not fight in December as the WBA urged to "strip" Kubrat Pulev if he goes ahead with Murat Gassiev defense

Kubrat Pulev will defend his WBA secondary heavyweight title against former cruiserweight champion Murat Gassiev on December 12 .

Whether Moses Itauma will fight on December 13 is now unclear as challenging for a belt could take precedence, writes Jake Donovan.

The eccentric, ageless promoter is still pushing for Hunter-Pulev to happen.

Miller and Hunter will headline a showcase event in Sin City in the lead-up to the Canelo Alvarez-Terence Crawford bout at the Allegiant Stadium on September 13.

Don King has claimed the rights to the Kubrat Pulev-Michael Hunter secondary title fight, submitting $1,100,000 during a purse bid hearing held Wednesday.

The WBA has scheduled a purse bid hearing for May 27 to determine promotional rights for Kubrat Pulev-Michael Hunter.

BoxingScene has confirmed that the WBA has called for a four-man heavyweight box-off involving Kubrat Pulev, Fabio Wardley, Michael Hunter and Jarrell Miller.

Fabio Wardley’s team are “pretty confident” that his proposed fight with Kubrat Pulev will be staged in Britain.

The winner of Pulev-Wardley – or Pulev in the event of a draw – must then face No. 3 contender Michael Hunter within 120 days.
