Pulev will be taking a nap by the 2nd. Ha! Ha!

I wouldn't wanna fight that janitor.

Well in a 12 round fight I wouldn't either ;P , but in a 1 round fight why not? He would most likely school an amateur boxer but Pulev adapts slowly to his opponent, he needs 2-3 rounds at least to start lading something significant.

Klitschko's strategy should be to start at a high pace for the first 2 rounds and then change the pace accordingly to the fight.

That's hilarious. Pulev is a very talented fighter with a distinguished amateur background. This ain't tomato can Leapai, Wach or Mormeck, Wlad's fighting this time.

Wlad didn't want this fight for a reason: it's the first time since he fought Haye that he's taking on someone capable of beating him.

Not saying Pulev will beat him, but he's got the ability to do so.

That makes THIS a Wlad fight worth watching. An actual challenge.

Pulev looks like a janitor..Klit's manager looks more intimidating..

Pulev has a distinguished amateur background, is a top five heavyweight contender and has a hot Bulgarian pop star girlfriend.

He's also earned the shot by beating guys bigger than Wlad including formerly unbeaten 6' 9" tall Russian Alex Ustinov and Sascha Dimitrenko, as well as Tony Thompson.

This is the first guy Wlad has fought since Haye who has the talent to challenge the champion.



Not bad for a janitor.

I got a feeling, that this might be an extremely awkward fight though!

[Dr.Eisenfaust]

I guess Klitschko might come up lighter than usual, 110kg is an excellent weight for him I believe.

Another guy who's never left Germany? He gets ready to the Title bout fighting some guy who's is 20-23? Must be the same guy all the contenders fight prior to Wlad. Another boring bout in Germany that might rival a WWE
bout on Monday night Wrastlin'!! Heavyweight Boredom. Ray.

Where else would he fight? The "top competition" in the US? ROFL.

The US is a place with large venues and wealthy spectators, it does not steadily produce top boxers. Are Floyd Mayweather and Chris Algieiri jumping to HW?

Who the **** let Pulev wear that shirt? All he's missing is a damn bolo tie, and he'd look like he's running for Chief of the Osage Nation.
