Kubrat Pulev said he’ll donate half of his purse from his heavyweight title fight against Anthony Joshua to help medical workers fight the coronavirus. Pulev’s purse is reportedly £4 million ($4.9 million), so Kubrat is donating some serious coin. Good guy. The bout is tentatively rescheduled for July 25.

Props to Pulev! Outstanding actions like these deserve a pat on the back with a big thank you!
Call me a cynical bastard, but half of me thinks he had done that to make his situation in the heavyweight mix more stable. It would bring paying him to step aside further into the public eye. Still props for doing it though. He gives up money regardless
Won’t the pandemic be over at the end of July?
Until vaccine is available, things can go back to normal, but regardless, our social behavior will be changed for ever
I doubt it, it may get worse in the fall.
Johnson & Johnson has speculated they have formulated a vaccine to be tested by September. Yes, other competitors are in the mix as well to be the first guy on the block to come up with a vaccine. In the mean time, stay healthy and protect yourself. As the death toll will climb yet till this is over, the biggest take away in all this is to realize your health is the highest priority over all other things. Thank you and have a wonderful day today.
You cynical bastard. We’re welcome.

Way awesome for Pulev. Great example of how money isn’t everything in a mans life, and rather use it to help those in need. Like Pacquiao. Great men. God Bless Them Both…
Fair play to him. That’s a serious sum of money. Maybe AJ could do the same?
I saw that Erik Morales was distributing loads of food packages which must help the spirits of the Mexicans.
