pulev will ice Minnesota ice quickly. he will get his shot but how long is wladimir going to keep fighting? he is 37 & soon to be married. he doesn't have steward in his corner anymore & he's fought pianeta & povetkin. he looks vulnerable. just my opinion but if he really wanted to fight the best he would vacate the WBO title or ask for an extension & fight pulev. lennox lewis did it twice. no reason for wladimir to give an unworthy challenger a shot at a title. botysov got exposed by a journeyman. pulev should be fighting wlad in the spring not leapai... just my opinion
I agree. wlad should just vacate the wbo. its not like its a prestigious title anyway. there's no excuse for him to fight leapai. vacate and fight pulev!
Im not sold on Pulev nor a particular fan, but its shameful he cant get any of the so called decent opposition to face him. Just another sad symptom of todays sorry heavyweight era.
He doesn't want to face them now, he (understandably) wants to hang around waiting for Wlad who is more intent upon taking on Leapai.
He just fought Thompson anyway, who was top 10 (think he was #9).
