Comments Thread For: Arum Explains Why He's Confident Pulev Will Beat Joshua

[Marvlus Marv]

To be fair, it was the old temple shot that Joshua never recovered from. I've seen loads of fighters lose their shti after getting ****** on the temple, just above the ear or even on the top of the head.

Very weak argument by Arum. Pulev has decent pop, but Joshua has all the advantages. Size, youth, Power, speed of hand and foot. Ruiz is a big puncher and way faster than Pulev. I can't think of any advantages Pulev has.

Pulev's best win is a SD over Delboy. Nice try Arum..

Hasim Rahman caught an unprepared Lennox Lewis. Andy caught Joshua and Joshua out boxed the boxer in the rematch.

Sure Andy was fat, Andy is always fat but at no time was remotely looked tired, he got beat, live with it.

are there people who can't live with it? The fact is, they're 1-1 against each other. Ruiz won by stoppage and made Aj quit, while Aj won by an overly cautious super boring 12 round decision. I think the denial comes from Aj fans who want to pretend like the ko didn't happen and pretend as he avenged himself in a similar impressive fashion to how Lewis did vs rahman. His revenge was pretty weak in comparison to how he got beat imo.

What else is Arum or any promoter going to say about their guy ?

Don't agree with Bob Arum...

Ruiz is not a big puncher, but he has quick, heavy hands and good boxing ability.

Why is Arum so confident Pulev will upset Joshua?

It's his job to promote Pulev and he'll earn money out of him. What else is he supposed to say? that my boxer is old, has fewer skills, and doesn't stand a chance?

[Bob]

I've read Bob said Hearn insisted on a rematch agreement for Pulevs mandatory fight?
I thought that was illegal for a mandatory?
If it's true it shows the filth eddie & aj are & that heavyweight boxing is absolutely not a sport any more.
How's it got this bad?

Can anyone confirm this?

Same way hez gonna beat fury on the night. No one cares how he wins.

Pulev should enjoy while it last. Hez going down like a bag of potato sack.

Arum must say that **** because Pulev is his fighter. Arum knows pretty well what is gonna happen and he also hopes Pulev will be moved away so that unification can happen.
