    Kubrat Pulev (26-1, 13 KOs) defeated Hughie Fury (21-2, 11 KOs) by a 12 round unanimous decision on Saturday night to punch his ticket as the mandatory challenger for IBF heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua...

    ...Pulev did a great job of beating Fury, 23, by a 12 round decision on Saurday night at the Arena Armeec, in Sofia, Bulgaria. The scores were 117-111, 118-110 and 115-113. Hughie made it competitive, but he couldn’t overcome a cut that opened up in the 2nd round. Hughie had suffered the cut over his left eye during training camp, and Pulev took advantage of it by opening it up again. With the cut bleeding bad, it forced Hughie to fight more aggressively than he wanted to because he wasn’t certain whether the fight would be stopped.
