THE Mahmoud Charr versus Kubrat Pulev contest for a WBA heavyweight title is such a joke, perhaps the best way to report upon it is to act as if we’re in on that joke.
So, with a disclaimer that advises the following to be taken with a pinch of salt, here goes nothing:
On Saturday night at the Arena Armeec in Sofia, Bulgaria’s Kubrat Pulev was to get another chance to win the world heavyweight title against the champion, Mahmoud Charr, the German who was born in Syria and lives in Dubai. This week, the boxing world was stunned to hear that Charr is injured and the fight will now happen in September.
