Comments Thread For: Joshua Will Look To Be More Destructive With Pulev, Says Hearn

[Chinned]

It did
Didn’t you see the rematch
On top of it all , Ruiz was completely out of shape
I heard AJ got himself an electric bike , testing it against Pulev for further use against the winner of Fury/Wilder
Eddie just blowing smoke up your azzes and of course many of you chewing it up like it’s your last fughin supper

Hahaahahahhahaahhahaaha

He had it against Ruiz for sure, but he probably knew that was an easy win for him if he outboxed him. There was definitely fear of him personally though.

It remains to be seen if that PTSD was specifically at Ruiz or anyone. It shouldn't be - he took some massive hits vs Wlad and Whyte, but we'll see.

Ruiz being completely out of shape undermines your argument. The fatter and slower Ruiz was, the more sense it made to go with the hit and move strategy. Ruiz's single hope for victory being so overweight was for Joshua being ****** enough to stand flat footed in front of him and trade. Naturally, Joshua made the easy choice.

38-year-old Pulev has shown himself very vulnerable to left hooks. If Joshua does not seek the knockout and stays on his toes for the Pulev fight it is far more informative about the lasting effect of the loss to Ruiz in the first fight than what we saw in the immediate rematch.

So let me get this straight
It was wise to trade with him when he was in shape but better to run from him when out of shape
Wtf

Lol
That’s what I don’t get
He took massive shots against Wlad and Whyte
His downfall will be fighting with that fear in the back of his head
Needs to overcome that before he’s knocking anybody out
Or else we’ll get the same AJ as the rematch imo

We'll know from the first bell what version of AJ we'll see. 18 foot ring, destructive, 20 foot ring, decisive. 22 foot ring, swan lake. I look for a 20 footer for Pulev. He's too big to steam roll and he has a little pop, but hes less talented than Andy. Andy is a swift counter puncher, punches between punches. Pulev mostly covers up through combos and shoots when the other guy stops. He's slower too.

Got a better chin than Wilder.... AJ didn't get rocked by Molina or Breazealle unlike Wilder that's for sure.

That's very questionable and debatable. Wilder was very gassed and badly hurt and yet Fury still couldn't put him away or get him off his feet. If that's not a granite chin or balls my friend, then I don't know what is.

He definitely can't fight the same way he did in the Ruiz rematch, if he adopt that style then he would start losing fans.

I expect Aj to box & move just like the Ruiz 2 fight. But when Aj releases that 1-2 that split ruiz eye openi expect Pulev to drop.
Pukev is 39 by fight time. Fought nobody since Klitschko, he's slow, old & i don't even think ppv worthy. It's a fight nobody wants.

[BigZ44]

Interesting to see if Pulev gets cold feet and pulls out of the fight at the last second again. Don't **** yourself poolev! Embrace your own destruction!!

[Interrogative]

hopefully he will. dont want to see him run around

[Interrogative]

that fight with him and ruiz was super broing
