Anthony Joshua showed 'novice' weaknesses, says Kubrat Pulev's promoter Kalle Sauerland


Mandatory challenger Kubrat Pulev could beat Anthony Joshua “very easily” if he fights again like "a novice", believes his promoter Kalle Sauerland.
Joshua is mandated to defend his IBF heavyweight title against No 1 contender Pulev but, after also winning the WBA 'super' belt against Wladimir Klitschko last week, his next opponent is unclear.
Pulev's promoter Sauerland confirmed that negotiations are taking place to challenge Joshua, who they believe showed a lack of experience despite beating Klitschko.
"We saw two Anthonys - I saw possibly one of the most sensational heavyweights I have seen in many years, and I also saw a novice at times," Sauerland exclusively told Sky Sports.
"If the novice turns up, Pulev will take care of business very easily. If the Anthony Joshua turns up that exploded in round 11 and half of round five, then it's going to be a difficult night for anyone. The exciting thing about Anthony Joshua is that he is learning, and Pulev is someone who has beaten very good guys throughout his career."

Nigerians Lose Job As Ecobank Shuts Down 74 Branches

Ecobank Nigeria has shut down about 74 of its 479 branches.
