Pulev is the mandatory IBF challenger. In addition, AJ’s other belts will be at stake.
Okay then.

Does that mean a rematch is possible in the Case of a loss?

All the best to AJ oooooo

Abeg , One Question!
How Many titles are in Boxing?
In the heavyweight division 4 main titles: IBF, WBO, WBA and WBC.

Anthony Joshua has 4 belts but only 3 are main belts (IBF, WBO and WBA), he needs the final main belt (WBC, Fury's new belt) to become the undisputed heavyweight boxing champion of the world!

Which one is bigger?

Organizationally WBA is oldest; WBC is biggest.

All the others came after Mohammed Ali. From 1983 onwards. There even smaller less known ones besides these 5.

Categorywise Heavyweight is at the top; although some lighter boxers like Floyd Mayweather have made the lesser divisions more popular than Heavyweight after the glory days of the 1930s to 1990s that ended with Iron Mike Tyson.

Fathai:
big lie, you need all the five major belt to become undisputed heavy weight champion. As it is, Joshua is still more recognised than fury and he can easily negotiate higher for any fight including fight against fury.

You need all five belts to be undisputed. Agreed! But whoever holds the WBC holds the ace card.

Why do you think the Wilder/Fury match was a big draw?

Two things in my mind.
1. What happened to fury that AJ has to pick a fight with someone else. I tithe was supposed to fight the winner between fury and Deontay
2. Why have I not heard anything about Imo state case or is today not 2nd March.

you dont really know much about boxing. If Joshua and fury is to negotiate for a unification fight, please who will take the highest percentage of the money.

There are four major titles in the heavyweight division namely; IBF, WBA, WBC, and WBO.

An undisputed champion is a fighter who holds all four major championship belts (IBF, WBA, WBC and WBO). Since the four-belt era began in 2004, there hasn't been an undisputed heavyweight champion. The last undisputed champion in the heavyweight division was Lennox Lewis back in November 1999, when he defeated Evander Holyfield in their rematch.

The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London is the likeliest venue to stage Joshua's homecoming.

A deal is now in place and confirmation will come later on Monday.

The defence of his IBF, WBA and WBO titles will be Joshua's first fight on UK soil in nearly two years, since he beat Alexander Povetkin at Wembley. Last year he was beaten in New York by Andy Ruiz Jr then won a rematch in Saudi Arabia.

Joshua vs Pulev

Joshua's sights are on an undisputed title fight against new WBC champion Tyson Fury, a mega occasion which would crown one ruler of the division, but he must first dispose of his mandatory challenger in Pulev. Fury will, meanwhile, have a third fight with Deontay Wilder expected in July.

"I'm ready to come to London and bust you up in front of your own fans," Pulev has previously warned.

Vicyace:


Pulev's defence against klitscho was quite embrassing.
It seemed as if he was defending Klitscho's punches with his bare face.

He sucked at ducking punches, sometime AJ seems good at.

The few times AJ couldn't duck Klitscho's hook went really badly for him

Nice point raised, if Joshua can identify these then He is good to go, we will see what happens it might not be all easy ride for Joshua
