    What is wrong with Kubrat Pulev fans?

    The guy's fan base is really getting annoying - actually this links a bit to my thread about fanboys and haters - I really do understand how some fanboys can be the worst!

    But really, all due respect to Pulev, he seems a humble guy and is a decent fighter, doesn't duck people, is patient for his shot, and does his business well. However, he isn't exactly a superstar in the making, he is good but not spectacular at anything really.

    And i'm seeing more and more on things like YouTube and Facebook, there is this huge influx of (mostly Bulgarian) Pulev fans saying Klitschkos have been ducking him/are scared, he's the best HW in the world by far, next champ etc etc etc

    What are they seeing? Is this just blind worship by casuals and nationalists? In any case, this is seriously quite amusing...it's a lot worse than any other casual comments or support i've seen for other heavies, even those that would appeal to the casual with their knockout records or things like this, e.g Wilder.

    Have you ever noticed Bulgarian boxers and almost all of them have losing/padded records and are brought in for Western European boxers to get experience from.

    Pulev is perhaps the first one to make that much positive noise, so if the fan boys are Bulgarian I don't mind as he is a breathe of fresh air for their boxing scene.

    Secondly, heavyweight division sucks and Pulev is a mobile heavyweight and is still a lot better to watch than Klitscko bros. Although I personally don't mind Im speaking from other people's point of view.

    I respect Pulev because he is a solid pro with solid amateur experience and can't wait till he steps up.
