    I suppose Hearn has to keep talking this bollocks as he's again like Joshua, nose pressed up against the window looking in.If anyone is still ****** enough to think that this is any sort of show (and i'm sure there's many that rate Joshua lower than me) then look back to 2014 when a then peak Pulev was bounced all over the place by a passed prime 38 year old Wlad. This 'fight' is shyte and belongs in Saudi Arabia where Hearn seems to think for apparently reasons other than money is the new fight capital of the world..........What a bunch of wankers!

        "Great right hand"? Pulev´s jab is the only punch AJ might have issues with..

          It wasn't flush, it was a shot to the temple that done the damage. Nobody has an "iron temple".

          We've seen that Joshua can be put down (Klitschko), but anybody that thinks he has a glass chin because of Ruiz is kidding themselves.

            I don’t think his chin is the problem, the problem is his really bad recovery time.

            We’ve seen fighters like Fury, Juan Manuel Marquez etc that can get dropped, but they get up and recover almost instantly.

            AJ gets hit and he stays hit for ages. Ruiz was composed enough to know AJ doesn’t recover well and took his time in taking him out.

              I expect Joshua to box and be cautious in the early going but midway through the fight he will start sitting down on his shots more and go for the stoppage. Not a bad fight at all. Pulev is far from great but solid HW that clearly beat the likes of Chisora, who is getting some decent love on this board and in general.

                He doesn’t have a bad chin it takes him too long to recover though

                  So now there's an implied excuse for why Joshua got sparked by Andy - he didn't have a smooth training camp, got it. At least that's not as bad the ole' 45-pound Black Panther costume weakening his knees excuse.

                    Ruiz had all the tools to beat Joshua - the main one being he could take Joshua's power and so could throw punches when AJ threw his.

                    Joshua should beat Pulev fairly easily. This fight will tell us if Joshua has the right mindset since his Ruiz loss.
