Derek Chisora vs Kubrat Pulev time: When are ring walks for fight this weekend?

PA Wire

A heavyweight rematch will top the card at London’s O2 Arena on Saturday, when Derek Chisora clashes with Kubrat Pulev.

The pair squared off in Hamburg in May 2016, with Bulgarian Pulev coming out on top – courtesy of a split decision.

Now the veterans will meet again, as Briton Chisora, 38, attempts to bounce back after three straight points defeats.

And although Pulev, 41, responded to his 2020 loss to Anthony Joshua by outpointing Jerry Forrest in May, few at the O2 Arena will expect Saturday’s main event to go the distance.

Here’s all you need to know.

When is it?

Chisora vs Pulev takes place at the O2 Arena in London on Saturday 9 July.

The main card is expected to begin at 7pm BST, with the main-event ring walks likely to start at 10pm BST.

How can I watch it?

The fight will air exclusively on streaming platform DAZN, a subscription to which is available here at a cost of £7.99 per month.
