Interesting comment about colors there LDBC Slayer . too bad you're such a ****ing tinkerbell half the forum's on your ignore list.

He didn’t learn anything from Ruiz! What’s the odds on this fight?

Pulev and Ruiz aren't remotely the same fighter, you gonna lose your money lol.

Pressure is on Joshua to impress after his last outing. Personally, I think that's a little harsh, I mean how else should he have gone about fighting Chippy T*ts?

Despite that I think Pulev is perfect for a next opponent. Props to Joshua if he closes the show within the first half of the fight.

Lol... "Pulev will get Wildered around". This is a good boxing lexicon and thanks to Tyson Fury

Baha I think it needs a solid definition.

Wildered: When a heavyweight boxing contest is so one sided, the victor beat his opponent into adoption.

Example; Wilder vs. Fury 2

Wilder: Here, daddy, take the WBC title that I’ve been keeping safe for you.

Fury: Thanks, son, welcome to the family.

In going to say this now, as an AJ fan it will be very hard to defend him if he doesn't look impressive here.

Funny how I'm already seeing the usual haters picking Pulev wins or Pulev to give AJ problems, but when AJ easily beats him it'll be "Pulev was always ****"

Nail your colours to the mast and don't backtrack if you get shown up

Those same guys that were probably saying, “Tyson Fury is a fat coke head, Wilder will destroy him”...Wilder gets gifted a draw...”Tyson Fury is the number two heavyweight in the world”.

AJ needs to be controlled but go for the KO. However if it's harder than he expects he does need to back off and be smart. No point going for the KO and being knocked out yourself.

You never really know how good someone is until you get in there and some styles will just cause you problems and no one else

He's right in pulev isn't on his level.

I don't think he will go through him as such. That kind of talk is early round K.O.. I think it'll happen, but around 9th.

Well said.

Klitschko was toying with Pulev and floored him like 3 times only a year before he lost his belts against Fury. So, no, Pulev is not at level of Fury or Joshua, he shouldn`t be.

Pulev was one of Wladimirs`s easiest championship fights.

Pulev is just carefully managed Euro level fighter. Guy has poor skills and no head movement. They managed him carefully through Thompson, Abell, Dimitrenko, Ustinov and other fringe contenders. His best wins are Hughie and Chisora ( SD).

Pulev is 39 and Joshua fight should be his last hurrah. He was never even very good. Even Ortiz with his poor resume has at least much better skills.

When you look at the fight objectively it supports Joshua's statement that Pulev isn't in his level. However that also suggests an early(ish) KO win. It will be interesting to say if, once in the ring, Joshua has the confidence in his chin to fulfill that.
