Anthony Joshua and Kubrat Pulev will face off in London in December AFP/Geoff CADDICKLONDON: Anthony Joshua is set for his first fight in over a year after the world heavyweight champion said Friday he would defend his titles against Kubrat Pulev at London's O2 Arena on Dec 12.

Spectators are currently barred from major sporting events in Britain but Joshua remains hopeful he can yet have something of a home crowd to roar him on."I have a lot of history with the arena, but without the fans something huge is missing," said Joshua. "Dec 12 is the date and once again the heavyweight belts go up in the air and it is my sole focus to make sure that come December 13 they are in their rightful place in the UK," he added.
