Comments Thread For: Bob Arum: I Really Believe Pulev Can Beat Anthony Joshua

[JakeTheBoxer]

It doesn`t even matter anymore. This is silly now. So now everybody thinks he can beat Joshua, like everybody thought he could beat lennox because Rahman did.

Joshua won`t get any credit even if he stops Pulev or Usyk in first round.

Definitely. Perhaps Usyk or Fury could catch him, but these two are not powerful enough to ko him with 1 punch. Wilder had a difficult time to catch the aging Ortiz, so no way he's catching this rabbit.

wilder didn’t have a hard time catching Ortiz . He threw 1 meaningful right hand the whole fight and it landed. He was measuring and timing him in that fight . Don’t forget wilder landed a few times on fury and fury is way more craftier than Ortiz and Joshua .

Andy Ruiz will be able to get AJ and others too if they have a good smart trainer like Canelo

Joshua is overrated but no way Pulev is going to win. Pulev shouldn't be in the top 10, first of all.

With the way he dispatched Wladmir Klitschko how can anyone claim AJ is overrated?

That's exactly why he is overrated. He had a great win over Kliczko who was old that time, just to remind you (then some wins over a few not very bad guys) and everyone treated him as a new HW king who would rule several years. Next he lost to a smaller fat guy in an embarassing style and won the rematch but without a revenge KO.
He is the same way overrated as Wilder and Ruiz is and less overrated than guys like Povetkin, Ortiz and Whyte.

The headlines read one thing

I didn't see or hear a dam thing Bob had to say about winning the fight; once again the headlines are always misleading on this site. It was more about the site for the fight than anything!

I'm getting really tired of Arum's double standards and hypocrisy lately. He trashes Joshua and Ruiz and virtually every other boxer he doesn't promote who's in a big fight and now he says he thinks Pulev has a legitimate chance against Joshua. Shut the hell up Bob. If you didn't co-promote Pulev you'd be saying this is a pointless fight and Pulev doesn't have a chance. Even Frank Warren isn't this bias when talking about his own stable.

Usyk or Pulev? We all know which opponent AJ will choose next.

And your point is? They are both mandatory opponents so it's not like he has a choice. He has to fight them both next year anyways.

You call it running, I call it boxing. Go educate yourself and come back when you have half a clue.
