Comments Thread For: Photos: Klitschko-Pulev Final Presser Gets Controversial

Floyd has an 80% KO ratio?

80% of the time he ko's his opponents every time...

pulev is always in good shape and is hardly flat footed. youve probably never even seen him fight. he's very nimble on his feet for a big man. his only major flaw is the lack of power

yes i know he's very nimble for a roly poly. he might roll right out of the ring, down the aisle and out of the arena. i hope they have some sort of blockade setup to prevent this kind of tragedy from happening.

I don't get it, Pulev isn't Arreola. He's in good shape.

He's like a rockstar in Bulgaria complete with a fake boobs/fake blonde wife and awkward sexy calender shoots

I'm just looking forward to Briggs most likely interrupting his post fight interview... all these videos look set up but they're funny enough to make me interested in seeing them fight!

Why not, there's not many other intriguing match ups anyway.

There are lots of more intriguing matchups than Briggs (not that that's saying much)

Pulev (happening, and Ring rates him as the best HW in the world after Wlad)
Stiverne
Fury
Jennings
Helenus
Povetkin rematch with different ref
Anthony Joshua down the line
And yes even hypejob Wilder
Glazkov etc...

You could go on. Briggs isn't a difficult fight to surpass. Takan coming off his loss is a 100x better fight than Briggs.

no he's not. he weighs 250 pounds. more than wlad even though he's much shorter. he should weigh 230 tops to maximize mobility, stamina, agility, etc...do you think being the shape of a roly poly is the best thing for a boxer to be? if you don't have the length of your opponent and you are also slower how can you realisitically win a boxing match? aside from a big punch which he doesn't have you can't. if a flabby guy fought in any other division he would be laughed at but since he's a heavyweight he can be lazy and eat pie all day.

From fight to fight Pulev's weight doesn't go up or down more than five pounds. He is also 6'5" and your average NFL linebackers are about 6'2" 240 to 250 pounds. And Pulev may not be ripped like Wlad but he sure as hell looks to be in pretty good shape. I am just wondering if you ever have anything positive to say?

He's 6'4"-6'5", only a few inches shorter than Wlad.



As far as his physique, other than Wlad and Joshua who else is ripped at that size? He isn't fat all, that's good enough for heteros.

How about concentrate on his actual boxing style. Physically, he's fine.

dude,,youre clueless. pulev is only a couple inches shorter than wlad at 6'4 and he has a low body fat %age. hes not as sculpted as wlad but he's far from being chubby. he has great stamina and usually fights better in the last couple rounds than the early ones. you can point out some flaws with pulev but conditioning isnt one of them

yeah he's 6'5 when he's on stilts. he's clearly 3-4 inches shorter than wlad and wlad weighs less than him. you see how he's shaped like a roly poly? that equals not good! also if you don't see how there's a difference between what a linebackers does(tackling people in short bursts) and what a boxer does(move around, in and out for long periods of time) then you may have to return your sports science degree that you got from university of phoenix.
