    Yeah, that Otto Ramin guy he has now. What has he ever accomplished as a coach?

    The fact is that Ramin is not the first Sauerland coach. He does not train the best Sauerland fighters, right.

    Pulev spends most of the time in Bulgaria with his coach from amateurs years. I think it is a bad sign. Boxing in amateurs is completely different. Also, I have doubts about his dedication when he is in Bulgaria.

    This.

    My question on Ramin was wether he ever trained a big name. I dont think he has.

    He should have turned pro earlier in my opinion. I guess it is hard to change his style after all those years in amateurs. We, Bulgarians, do not have experience in pro boxing. I guess we make mistakes but we will not say he will do great things. We see his flaws.

    Me too.

    Pulev is not a marketable fighter coming from a very small country. He is on his own. He does not have a big fan base even though many Bulgarians live or study in Germany. Maybe that's why he is not a Sauerland priority... Or maybe they know his flaws and do not see potential.

    Is Walker's chin really abysmal? Let's look at the facts...

    1st loss...here's what Boxrec had to say "
    At the opening bell Wilson jumped right on Walker and got him into a corner where he landed a flurry of shots which left Walker seemingly out on his feet. Referee Raul Caiz felt compelled to stop the fight a mere 15 seconds in. Walker, who never went down, complained bitterly about the stoppage."

    Walker destroyed Wilson in a TKO2 a few months later.

    2nd loss....hella awesome war with Chris Arreola. Walker nearly won that fight by KO in round 2.

    3rd loss.....beautiful overhand right by Quezada...this is a bad loss for Walker but he says he never saw it coming.

    4th loss...vrs. Banks, Walker claims he sprained an ankle. He was also up at 7 for the KO but the ref wouldn't let him go on

    5th loss...gay stoppage with rigged Aussie ref/judges....good fight till then tho. Leapai was in trouble.

    6th loss....a war with Chagaev....very competitive fight and Walker wasn't knocked down.

    The idea that Walker lacks chin is a straight up myth. But if the myth gets Travis Walker more fights, then so be it, cause he's fun to watch in the ring.

    Well I hope he fights Fury cause if he's the underdog I'll be looking to invest some money in Pulev for that fight. Pulev==way too fast and skilled for Fury. And I doubt Fury has the power to seriously hurt Pulev (if he could catch him).

    God points. Could be. Sauerland also likes heavies. I think Kalles biggest dream is to have the best Heavy in the world. Not much with that yet, though. They also like having monopol on a division ( See: Cruiserweight) and in the past, Super Middle (Ottke: IBF and WBA champ, Beyer: WBC champ and Haussler: European champ)

    Plan could be Helenius and Povetkin(Who has that Kiddie WBA belt now) - ABC beltholders. Pulev - European champ.

    Sauerland - Don King of Europe ;)

    Same with Us finns...:-(

    IMO Amin Asikainen had Very good Basics to be much better Pro than he did.
    Everything went wrong... It was not his Glass chin..
