Heavyweight Schedule for 2013

[joe strong]

just watched the pulev\ustinov fight. pulev has really impressed me in his last 2 fights he made both dimitrenko & ustinov quit. he handed ustinov a serious beating. solid jab, good rights & he showed a good chin. ustinov is too big & slow. he needs to drop 25lbs to be more agile. he does have good power because every clean shot he landed pushed pulev back but there just wasn't enough of them. i have no doubt ustinov will become a euro gatekeeper for guys like fury & price. he is a B level fringe contender. pulev could use 1 or 2 more big fights vs quality opposition. i'd fight chisora, adamek or helenius if he is healthy(probably needs a tuneup after surgery & layoff). i'd target chisora because he is another tough fringe contender with some quality experience. pulev is a top 3 contender along with haye & helenius. going into this fight ustinov really had limited experience. he had wins over manswell, gavern & sprott. this was a HUGE step up!

Bogdan Dinu, a talented but poorly managed heavyweight from Romania, will finally be fighting again on Nov 3.

He'll be fighting on an Interbox card. I'm hoping that he's signed with them, I hate to see his talent going to waste.

Most obvious farce yet. The guy looked like he was afraid to hit back.

They mention a possible rematch with Dereck Chisora in 2013, if Helenius is completely healed.

Good new, he need to come back in the game. Some good fights are coming in 2013 i think.
