Wladimir Klitschko vs. Kubrat Pulev

[pesticid]

You could say every HW is a 'big puncher'. The true definition of a big puncher imo is when said puncher has actually beat the top competition with that power.

Wlad has been down and out more than a few times himself. And that Joey knockdown was nothing.

Look back at the context of what I wrote. The guy wrote as if Pulev will take Wlad's power like it's nothing. I just thought that's pretty ****** as he hasn't fought anyone with the power of WK or even near. I know it was a flash knockdown with Abell, but still.

Sure, Wlad's been down...but no one is saying his chin is one of his good points...

Pulev will dethrone wlad, with toughness, body punching and good distancing.

I don't think either one is getting stopped to be honest.

If Wlad stays commited to his jab he should decision Pulev unanimously, however if Pulev for once makes a consistent effor to throw his 1-2s or 1-2-1s 5 to 8 times a round stepping in then I see trouble for Wlad. He just hasn't dealt with that size speed and straight punching since Corrie Sanders and luckily for him Pulev isn't a puncher.

Pulev is a live dog and certainly has the ability and athleticism to take it to the champ, but I suspect his "reluctant" style might prevent him from taking it.

Pretty sound analysis. Not too long till fight night now so we see for sure. Expecting a good fight.

Me too, I don't think there will be much clinching, I hope not.

A wise decision.

It's not everyday that a person gets the chance to witness the dethroning of a reigning HW world champion. Don't miss your chance.
