    Ok. Give me just one good reason why Wlad chose Leapai over Pulev.

    (And don't say he is "pretending to duck him to drum up interest in the fight". The interest is already there. In Germany Wlad is a superstar and Pulev is fairly well known.)

        Pulev had no fight lined up. He fought Abell on short notice to keep busy, and AFTER Wlad officially chose Leapai, he tentatively accepted a spot on the Braehmer vs Maccarinelli undercard.

          they were both mandatories and pulev already had a fight lined up. seems pretty obvious to me

              That's explains a lot....just don't bet any money on pulev when they do fight...and if you are still planning to, I'll give you a detailed breakdown.

                Little power ! Yet he stopped Ustinov and Dimitrenko for the first times in their careers ? If you're referring to him not dropping Thompson for your reasoning he lacks power,you're wrong.Pulev showed Tiger far too much respect because be dropped the British kid twice,if you actually watched Price v Thompson,in the rematch I didn't see anything big landed.

                Pulev simply encountered an awkward style to adapt to against Thompson,in which Pulev improvised,adapted then overcame in impression fashion,completely shutting the American out.after a somewhat tentative start.

                  People underestimating Pulev a lot here. He's the best HW not named Klitschko.
