Comments Thread For: Pulev Was Fighting COVID Leading Up To Joshua Fight, Says Promoter

[Jab jab boom]

So all of the Aj praisers who were so happy over this win now have to accept that all he did was beat a worn down 40 year old COVID patient?

So basically he exposed AJ to Covid-19???? Foh!! He should be arrested along with his manager and promoter Bob arum. Wtf??? I can imagine if it was the other way around. Smh!! Anthony Joshua I’m with you on this one brother whatever your response is. Excuse, lie or not COVID-19 the common cold or any other airborne virus for that matter is not something you want to be unknowingly but willingly exposed to. This is a crime and his whole team should be charged with conspiracy to commit murder.

Crikey. No one -- absolutely no one-- is suggesting Pulev had Covid when he stepped into the ring with Joshua. Jeez.

That sounds like BS to me. He either had the virus or he did not have it or had it and was well over it. if he had it during training he should not have fought. It sounds like an excuse for losing to the younger better fighter.

Only if they believe it and I don't. Why didn't he cancel the fight if he was sick? This stuff always comes up after a loss and never before the fight. They are testing the hell out of everybody involved in fights so he was likely tested and found negative of the virus. Believe what you want but COVID has now become a handy defense for losing.

Gotzev lying about COVID to explain Pulevs terrible performance and hopefully conning the public for a few more paydays

Chalk up another W for KO-vid.

we all know he got if from force kissing one of his hoe's

if you read the article, it says exactly why he didn’t bring it up before the fight. If it’s a lie, that’s a weird lie for promoter to make up one whole month later.

The Wilder-Lomachenko crybaby excuses disease is spreading.
