Pulev is garbage; the HW div. is trash.

[LacedUp]

This isn't a mediocre Spilka, a Jennings or even a Wilder (all of whom would lose to the even current version of Thompson) but somehow you treat him as if he is less.

You have it in your head Pulev has no skill, and anyone he has beaten based on his skills is a turd, despite him not having power to rely on.

I don't know how boxing fans can write this kind of stuff, but whatever man.

Jennings have more skills than Pulev.

No, I can see he has no skills. No footwork. headmovement, punch variety, speed etc. I've watched all of his last 4-5 big fights and it's the same. He's an amateur in a Pro game beating Tony Thompson's 42 year old body doesn't change that at all - especially as Tony Thompson wasn't very good to begin with.

And I don't know how boxing fans can say Poolev is supremely skilled and has an outstanding jab, when he clearly hasn't.

No he doesn't, and he lost his last fight to Perez. Perez, another skilled HW, would do better against Pulev but would probably still lose over 12.

But like I said, I've had enough talk on this. Good afternoon to you.

why do ye guys even watch wlad fights if no matter what he does ye will always say the exact same thing afterwards? A) he's awesome and would beat Ali and foreman in the same night ... B) he is dog crap and would be sparked in a round by (insert any retired top 500 heavyweight from the past)

Just call it the way it is ... if its a stinker like Povetkin call it one.

If it's an entertaining fight and a solid win like pulev call it one.

If you call everything a stinker then you're nothing but a hater and can be ignored.

If you say he's always awesome you are just a fan boy and can also be ignored.

My conclusion ... pretty much every tw*t in this thread (well let's say 90% of ye) can be ignored

I enjoyed yesterday's fight. I don't always watch Wlad's fights, but I saw the fight yesterday and I enjoyed it - first time I've done so for a while with a Wlad fight.

I liked Pulev too, mainly because he tried to rough Wlad up on the inside, showing no respect and in turn Wlad laid him out with a peach of a left hook.

But that doesn't mean Pulev is a skillful fighter, when he clearly isn't.

He most certainly does.

No need to get all girly on me mate.

Pulev has offensive skills but his defense is awful!!! Far too static, flat feet, no head movement. He obviously prepared to avoid Wlad's right, but left himself wide open for Wlad's left hook.

I'd say he's a top 5 heavyweight, certainly not #2 like some are claiming. Povetkin would definitely beat him imo, Stiverne as well.

Defeat against the best boxer in last 10 years, and "Pulev doesn't have any skills".
Are you kidding me ? This forum is full of trolls by the way...
Bad tactics from Pulev last night, but this doesn't mean that he isn't good fighter. Again I told you to watch a full fight replay, and you will see that 4 times (one in 1 round, 2 in 4 round, and 1 in 5 round) Klitschko was staggered. Yes, Pulev made a lot of wrong things, especially the head movement and he paid for it. This doesn't mean anything...he is a top class boxer, but Klitschko is above all in this moment...

I've already replayed the fight twice. Doesn't make me change my mind, I've seen him fight before and he's never impressed me. He's a tough guy, I'll give him that. And he's a good fighter for today's standards. But he's not a skillful fighter.

[Balloonknot]

Klitscho are dominating in an era where there is no great HW challengers its like the competition are guys no one has ever heard of

[SeekDaGreat]

**** Wlad. There I said it. And there's a lot of us that feel this way. We don't like that glass chinNed *****. There, it's out in the open. The HW division is trash.

Andrew Golotta would steam roll these bums. Tell Wlad to fight someone with a pulse.

The next time Elroy or Weltz say modern HWs have better defense than past HWs, I'll point to Pulev.
