Professional heavyweight boxer Kubrat Pulev is preparing for a fight against former UFC heavyweight champion Frank Mir on November 27 in Arlington, Texas. The Bulgarian initially had to face Vitor Belfort, but then his opponent was replaced.

For both Pulev and Mir this will be their debut in Triad Combat, where the battles take place in a triangular ring.

"This is a new sport, but I hope the matches will be very interesting," Pulev commented at a virtual press conference.
