Meanwhile...Wilder is still sat in his bedroom with a bottle of Prosecco, scratching Breland's face out of old photos

Joshua should win this one by KO within 6. He needs to make a statement to shake off the scared/cautious tag some have been trying to put on him since the Ruiz rematch.

Not going more than 5 rounds

Despite Pulev looking like he can recover from knockdowns, I think Joshua’s knockdown of Ruiz would have put Pulev away. I respect Pulev’s longevity but Joshua will be too athletic and powerful for him

What are you on about with Pulev he will have fought literally half the ring top 10 + klitschko (retired), Fury has fought 1 + Klitschko, Wilder 2. Same story with boxrec top 10 , top 20 etc etc . On every stat he's the one who has stepped up.

When did it become bad to face your mandatory and fight top 10 guys ?

I like Fury but saying its a badge of honour he has never fought a mandatory is ridiculous and how Wilder managed to do that many defences against so few top 10 guys is the stuff of legend.

Get this fight the hell over with and then no more BS excuses. No more alibis about mandatories. Only fight the top names or get lost

[PRINCEKOOL]

Joshua needs to stop Pulev, within 6-8 rounds 'In violent fashion'. This fight is part 2 of his rebuilding process, as he did not entirely slay the dragon vs Andy Ruiz Junior etc.

I also think? That Joshua needs to STOP being so self conscious, over being super light 'He dramatically changed because 1 defeat made him doubt himself' that is not always a good personality trait.

Shouldn't be in the o2 in a country going back into lockdown.
Hearn money first safety 2nd
As for the fight, i see Aj running away again just like Ruiz 2.Only when he connects with the 1-2 that split Ruiz open i expect Old man Pulev to crumble.
Then i expect Aj to duck Fury for Usyk or Chisora putting Whyte or Pov in Fury's path again.
Hearn protecting his fragile quitter cash cow 1on1.

You sound salty daug.

Pulev's fight vs booker was very dull. If Hrgovic beat booker by ko he should deserve a title shot. Imo Hrgovic would be much more Dangerous than pulev for aj.
