Tyson Fury's promoter Bob Arum believes Anthony Joshua will get knocked out by Bulgarian Kubrat Pulev when they fight in London in June.

CAPE TOWN – Right after beating Deontay Wilder to win the WBC Heavyweight title, Tyson Fury’s camp have gone after Anthony Joshua, saying he will be beaten by Kubrat Pulev, meaning the much talk-about unification bout between the two Britons won’t happen.

WBA, IBF, WBO and IBO Heavywight champion is due to fight Bulgaria’s Pulev at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London in June. Fury’s promoter Bob Arum believes Pulev, who’s only loss was against Wladimir Klitschko in 2014, will be too good for Joshua.“Pulev is going to knock Joshua out so why would I talk to Eddie [Hearn, Joshua’s promoter], who I love dearly, about a Joshua-Fury fight? I think Pulev wins and then I negotiate with myself to do a Pulev-Fury fight,” Arum continued.Our champion

did just what he told everybody he was going to do in the fight. All props to him, to SugarHill Steward, Andy Lee and the rest of the camp.
