Wladimir gets KO'd by Foreman and Tyson (link to where he got wobbled by Pulev)

[KO'er]

Only people who don't watch Wlad's fights making the claims on his chin.

But in the video I linked Wladimir was wobbled by a jab from Pulev. Pulev isn't a big hitter. A jab wobbled Klitschko.

How is it even possible to say Klitschko has an alright chin.

If anyone was taking that monstrous hook off of Wladimir right on the chin they will be taking a trip down to the canvas.
Pulev has never been stopped before in his entire career, he doesn't have a glass jaw but he was made to quit he took some serious punishment.

Yeah, and are you telling me that anyone would withstand a Foreman clean shot? Not a chance mate. The thing is here, that pulev's defence is bad. It has always been bad, it's nothing new. When you do that against a big puncher, you're getting clipped.

He hasn't ever fought a big puncher before, yet he took a trip to the canvas against Abell as well.

I said he was a good boxer, maybe a top fifteen hw in the 70's, but a lot smaller than Pulev, 20-25 lbs smaller. Very much doubt he hit as hard. Watched several of his fights, vs Bugner, Quarry, Foreman, Ali. He wasn't a big puncher and any claim he was is BS. His record was not one of a big puncher, but he put down Foreman who some **** is claiming would be a Wlad eater. no he isn't.

Why would you doubt that? Pulev doesn't hit hard at all. Lyle is 6'3, Pulev 6'4 are you trying to tell me than being a bit flappy helps you hit harder than when you are ripped to the bone?

Lyle hits way harder than Pulev, and does everything better as well. No question about it.

Pulev must be a converted lefty, his left jab is his power punch.

[LacedUp]

The point is their are weight classifications set for a reason.

There are. Do you think Pulev would weigh 255 pounds if there was a heavyweight limit of say 230 and then a super heavylimit of 230+ ?

[LA_2_Vegas]

I saw him get caught by that as well, same bad reaction to getting touched as ever. Just gotta get to him.

[cupocity303]

Oh look, he found a weakness to criticize. I suppose it's a bad thing that he finally was in a little trouble and still manged to get the victory by adjusting his tactics.

Man, I wish it had been a one sided, boring drubbing with Team Pulev just throwing in the towel in the 8th instead.

[Cuban Linx]

Wlad stepped right into a perfect counter jab by Pulev. Pulev has stopped fighters before with jabs and he has a very stiff jab. Klitschko didn't see it coming and lost his balance for a second. He recovered well and then dominated the fight.

I did say many years ago that I believed Foreman would be very capable of beating Wladimir, he has possibly the ATG chins of the HW division especially if you see how he performs through his later years the only stoppage in his career came through him punching himself out.

Abell is a big puncher as well, can't deny him that look at his ratio.
What would be a more accurate thing to say about Abell is that he is a very limited fighter but the current best heavies of right now have been hurt by him (Fury and Pulev).
Its almost inevitable to avoid being hit at all in a fight but when you're taking a shot off a big man nothing can be took for granted.
We've seen plenty of great fighters being knocked down by lesser fighters like JMM being dropped by Katisidis but it doesn't take away from the fact JMM is a world class fighter.

Pulev still has many years left in his career and people who will follow the HW division will realize he isn't as bad as Wladimir made him look tonight.

How is it even possible to say Klitschko has an alright chin.

Could have been off balance, wasn't prepared, was cold.. whatever. even if he was wobbled he recovered in 0.01s.

I am basing my opinion on more than one fight (statistically significant conclusion requires more than a single data point).

How come Wlad didn't go down from Haye's signature haymaker or the clean shot from the giant on PEDs...
