    Oh he deserves it, hes earned his spot I just disagree with him being labelled as a threat. He doesn't even have a punchers chance. He has nothing Wladimir hasn't seen before only a lot better. Haye has a better jab and footwork than Pulev, hes a lot better in every other area too outside of stamina.

    Shot to bits Travis Walker though he lost by a landslide had a lot of success before he gassed against Pulev with his jab. Travis Walker! A guy not even known for having a good jab.

    Impossible for me to see Wlad being remotely pestered by a guy who is really a watered down version of himself. His only stand out attributes are his jab and his footworks alright for a big man, Wlads jab and movement are 10 times better.
    Not too hyped for it he doesn't even have the power to make it interesting.

      I foresee him losing to Wlad and then return to fight more of the bums of the heavyweight division.

      That is it lol
      A tough guy with an alright jab and decent footwork.

      After this beatdown I can see him becoming a solid gatekeeper type to world level. Guys like Jennings will probably fight him to get themselves in line.
      You beat him, you're good. You lose, you're never gonna be good enough to get a world title.

            Pulev's only threat is that Wlad is so weak he could lose to anyone at anytime if you graze his chin or test his nuts and quit him. These ridiculous justifications of Pulev being worthy are just people accepting the fact that Wlad is corrupt and decides who's ranked where. Stand up for our sport!

              Stiverne is a much bigger test than Pulev is. If we're going by history and what has caused Wlad problems in the past, Stiverne fits that bill a lot more than Pulev.
              I disagree. stiverne does hit harder than pulev but hes also lazier and has a bad habit of resting against the ropes without throwing any punches. I think wlad would have an easier time with stiverne. I just dont think stiverne would be able to get close enough to wlad to do any damage and would get picked apart from the outside

                Pulev's only chance to win is to totally revamp his style and to press the action and try to make some things happen. His current style - a stand up boxer counter puncher is not gonna cut it with Wlad. Pulev is gotta go "full Shawn Porter" mode - pressing forward, hitting and roughing Wlad up on the clinch, throwing a lot of punches and taking chances. He's not gonna outbox the champ

                  He looks a bit fruity with two eyebrows

                    Pulev is leagues above the likes of Leapai, Mormeck and Pianeta. IMO Pulev is Klitschko's toughest fight since David Haye, which is more than 3 years ago.

                    I await the fight eagerly. Could Wladimir tear his bicep agin during the fight?
