Wladimir Klitschko vs. Kubrat Pulev

[Weebler I]

If Klitschko Loses, Will Briggs start stalking Pulev?

I can't imagine Briggs catching flights to Sofia.

He'd probably switch to the next big money fighter.

[Black Barty]

Pulev will not be an easy opponent for Klitschko.

I hope there's a fair ref who stops Wladimir from clinching too much. Pulev is strong enough to hold his own in the wrestling anyway.

This is what I'm thinking, too. Pulev doesn't look like someone Wlad can just muscle around.

Another thing in Pulev's favor is that he has deceptively quick hands and can be very sudden with his punches.

Pulev will win and it will be an early Christmas present for me and the country of Bulgaria.

pulev is a good boxer but lacks power..
its gonna be a high level chess match which wladimir will likely win, but i think pulev will take some rounds off him IMO

[The Big Dunn]

this fight is going to be on HBO. Lets hope this fight isn't the crap we've seen recently when wlad fights on US TV.

That's what I'm thinking too.

Pulev might have softish hands for his size but he's still a big guy, they will hurt.

[KO'er]

I want Pulev to win but I think Klitschko could get the KO in the first 4-5 rounds.

BTW I really doubt Klitschko will allows Briggs into the arena.

Wladimir is better but styles make fights, you never know. This has always been an intriguing fight to me. There are some questions that we can only answer on saturday night :

How will the battle of the jabs enroll?

Will Pulev use his usual defence against Wladimir Klitschko or will he use a little bit more his shell guard to block the jabs?

Will either of them be able to land clean and flush shots considering the fact that both fighter rely on movement to avoid punches?

Who will fight on the backfoot?

But the main question would be : how would Klitschko deal with his stylistical clone?

Pulev is really intriguing me. Is he really mentally strong or is he faking it?

It's such a shame that this fight is only exciting for the hardcore fans. Pulev is definitely an A-class fighter just like Haye, Povetkin and Fury ( when he wants to).

[Divine Hammer]

i think pulev has a good chance at giving wlad a ton of trouble. he is a very good fighter, gifted physically, and i'm sure he will do great things after the fight.

also people need to stop talking about briggs, the guy is a certified weirdo and needs mental psychiatry. i'm being serious too.
