    Yeah, I don't dislike Pulev at all, but I haven't seen anything that convinces me that he's tactically any better than Chisora level. Tough and durable, but nothing special. I think that Pulev-Fury probably ends up looking similar to Pulev-Wlad, plus 4-7 rounds to account for Fury's comparative lack of power.

      pulev is much better than chisora. he just fought the wrong fight against wlad and it made him look worse than what he is. hes a good boxer but not a big hitting slugger so it was ****** to think he could slug with wlad. his jab was effective early on when he used it but he abandoned it and slugged instead. him and fury is a 50/50 fight imo

          Arias ffs. Go and do like Povetkin if you're the real deal.

          Embarrassing. If Anthony Joshua fought Arias people would sniff at it, let alone a so-called top heavy in Poolev.
          hes coming off a devastating kayo loss. he has every right to fight a soft touch to knock off some rust and gain confidence back. it would be foolish to fight a serious opponent in his first fight back

            Sure. But a journeyman? Thats embarrassing.

              Peter yes. The rest absolutely no chance.

                    thats what alot of fighters do when theyre coming off a crushing kayo loss and long layoff. there's nothing wrong with that at all. now if he was to fight a can in his second fight back that would be a different story

                      On a world level I'd say his whole career is based on journeymen. We can manipulate escrow and make a real bet if you like on the fight.
