    Ok Bob, question for ya:

    How much of your hard earned are you betting on Pulev?

    What's that you say....? Zero? Zilch? Nada? Nothing?

    You cant be that confident then.

    He's either ******, or just doing his job and selling the fight.

      Like someone we know, with a bunch of pleather belts offering 15% flat fees.

        Personally, I didn't believe that Joshua is broken fighter but a scarred one like: John Ruiz was after the David Tua fight and Wladimir Klitschko after the Lamon Brewster fight.

        Those two were never the same fighters again. Both of their styles changed dramatically afterwards.
        I know it’s only been one fight, but it was still a win in a rematch to the guy that battered him. It wasent a tune up. I think he will continue with the stick and move. Hopefully he builds up more confidence even as the fight progresses, more right hands, uppercuts, hooks. Well more of anything than the jab hopefully. I remember Wlad not throwing a single right hand for rounds at a time.

          How do you offer a percentage flat fee?

            True, I expect a safety first Joshua in the early rounds. Then him the testing the waters a little in the later rounds.

            However, if he feels that Pulev is still too strong then I could easily see him boxing to a unanimous decision. I see him taking fewer risks and chances than usual.

            He still remembers that knockout loss to Andy Ruiz by being over exuberant. When he thought he had him out.

                Right. I still think it was cool how he went right after Ruiz after he dropped him. Landed sum huge shots, credit to Ruiz for taking them. I’ll be really interested to see what AJ does if he’s ever in the same position again, if he ever really lets his hands go for broke.

                  Does Joshua think he is? He thought Andy was.

                      The wind from Arums mouth will cause hurricanes if he calls this.
                      Not nearly as much wind as what came out of the Wildettes' back passages as their idol got battered from pillow to post.
