Wlad is past 40 and he has been fighting forever. If he wants to retire then let him retire without giving him verbal BS. He is twice the fighter Kubrat will ever be.

I think he's maybe referring to the fact that Klitschko never rematched most of the people that beat him, apart from Brewster. Vitali stepped in and fought some of them instead. But it's true he is an ageing fighter so in the case of Joshua it's not entirely surprising or unjustifiable that he didn't go through with the rematch.
Way I saw it, Wlad has rarely had genuine bad blood with a fighter, but Pulev was definitely one of the few. It wasn't for show. They had a lot of BS squabbles before the fight was made and didn't get along at pressers, had problems with each other on fight night, and Pulev has made some comments after getting nearly decapitated that showed he wasn't humbled. Silly sour g****s. His jab could possibly give anybody trouble, and may throw Joshua for a loop but I'm taking AJ by bulldozing in the first half.
I mean just because Klitschko beat him doesn't mean he can't have a valid point. He didn't say that he's not talented but that he lacks spirit, wich are two different things that may very exist simultaneously.
