Official: Charr vs Pulev Fight Set for December 7

It has been officially announced that 39-year-old WBA Regular heavyweight champion (over 90.7 kg) Mahmoud Charr (34-4, 20 KOs) will face 43-year-old former title contender Kubrat Pulev (31-3, 14 KOs).

The bout will take place on December 7 in Sofia, Bulgaria—Pulev’s hometown.

As a reminder, Charr and Pulev were initially set to meet in March, but due to a bicep injury to the German, he was replaced by Ukrainian Igor Shevadzutskyi (11-2, 9 KOs), whom Pulev defeated by unanimous decision.

Mahmoud Charr last fought in December 2022, securing a second-round TKO victory over Nuri Seferi (42-11, 24 KOs).
