    Pulev is about 6'5" tall. How is Fury too big for him? Pulev handled Alexander Ustinov, who is almost the same size as Fury, quite easily. And Pulev has a sparkling amateur background, so your discounting of his boxing skills is silly.

    This one is an easy call: Pulev all the way.

      The people saying Fury won't take this fight or that fight, do not understand. He's not like these other boxers. Tyson Fury is a fighting man, from a fighting family, and a fighting culture. He will take on anyone, whether it's in a boxing ring, a car park, or a shed.

      For the record, he smashes Pulev to pieces.

            This fight will surely be in the UK. Really hope it isn't in Germany.

              If it goes to purse bid, will Hennessey win?

                  Fury said he'd retire if Neven Pajkic gave him a moment's trouble.

                  Pajkic knocked him him flat -- Fury didn't retire.

                  Fury said he'd retire if Steve Cunningham gave him a moment's trouble.

                  Cunningham knocked him him flat -- Fury didn't retire.

                  Fury is all talk. Pulev will DESTROY the fraud.

                    I know he behaves like a tool at times albeit in a funny endearing way.

                    I know he looks ungainly. I know he fights in a way that looks vulnerable.

                    However he's a big m***** f***** with power in both fists, good hand speed when he throws combinations, and can - when he wants to -fight to a game plan.

                    As long as he cuts the ****y stuff out, he'll dominate Pulev. I think he was eager to impress the fans, didn't have his uncle putting him straight, and fought like a lunatic against Cunningham.

                    Saying that, the commentary was hyperbolic. Fury was never in real trouble. He wasn't hurt when he was knocked down - he was caught square and straight up and seemed more embarrassed than anything else. (He was hurt worse on another punch a bit later when he grabbed on.) After that he did something unthinkable - became a 6'9" pressure fighter. Guard up, didn't take a backward step, and Cunningham had nowhere to go to get away.

                    Can you imagine a 6'9" Brandon Rios coming after you?

                    In his career so far, he's fought as a south paw, he's fought toe to toe, he's fought as a pressure fighter, and he's fought disciplined behind his jab. That's more versatility then any other heavyweight I can remember. And the guy is only 24. Oh, and unlike a certain other giant British heavyweight, Fury can take a damn good punch and he loves a good scrap.

                    Pulev will not know what to do when he had that jab hammering him in the face.

                    As I was saying, Tyson Fury may be a bit of a wally, but he's going places - provided he turns up in shape. (So if he looks fat, I reserve the right to withdraw my backing!)
                    Have you even seen Pulev fight, or are you just babbling? Sounds like the last.

                      Fools acting like Pulev's a small guy

                      Pulev also handled Dimitrenko easily, a guy who's nearly the same size as Fury and has equal or more skill level.
