The “championship” fight of the century is upon us, featuring none other than Mahmoud Charr, the man who’s spent more time dodging real contenders than throwing punches. The ringwalks for Charr vs. Pulev are scheduled for 8pm GMT with the broadcast set to begin at 6pm GMT live on DAZN.

Our illustrious “champion” Charr, fresh off his grueling two-year vacation – I mean, “training” period – is graciously allowing someone to challenge his dubious claim to the WBA “regular heavyweight” throne. How magnanimous of him to emerge from his cocoon of irrelevance!

Charr, the master of inactivity, will attempt to defend a title he’s barely earned against Kubrat “I’m Still Here” Pulev. It’s touching, really, how Charr’s managed to keep that shiny belt while fighting absolutely nobody of consequence. Who needs actual fights when you can just declare yourself champion in a courtroom, right?

It turns out his most impressive record isn’t in the ring – it’s in the courtroom! That’s right, folks, Charr has won more legal battles than actual fights lately. Who needs boxing gloves when you’ve got a team of lawyers, right?

Our paper champion extraordinaire has truly revolutionized the sport. Why bother with pesky things like training, facing top contenders, or, you know, actually boxing, when you can just litigate your way to the top? Charr’s groundbreaking strategy of using lawsuits instead of left hooks has really shaken up the heavyweight division.

It’s almost impressive how Charr has managed to turn dodging real competition into a full-time legal career. He’s probably more familiar with court stenographers than corner men at this point. One has to wonder if he’ll enter the ring in Sofia wearing a suit and tie, ready to object to any punch Pulev throws his way.

So, as we approach this monumental “fight,” let’s all take a moment to appreciate Charr’s unique approach to boxing. He’s not just a champion, he’s a pioneer – showing the world that with enough legal maneuvering, even the most inactive and irrelevant boxer can cling to a title belt.

Will Charr’s signature move – avoiding any credible opponent – work against hometown hero Kubrat Pulev? Or will he shock the world by actually showing up and remembering how to box? The suspense is killing us! (Not really.)

One thing’s for sure: this “championship” bout for the WBA “regular” heavyweight title is set to be a masterclass in mediocrity. Don’t blink, or you might miss Charr’s fleeting moment of relevance before he inevitably retreats back into obscurity. It’s almost poetic how he’s managed to turn dodging real competition into an art form.

Will his courtroom skills translate to the ring on Saturday? Or will Pulev serve him with a knuckle sandwich that no amount of legal jargon can defend against? Tune in to DAZN  to witness this judicial… I mean, pugilistic spectacle!
