Ustinov will stop Pulev, he is hugely underestimated on ESB, he might be not the most graceful HW but he doesn't need to, he knows what he is and what he is not
Another bum. GIVE HAYE A REMATCH. he's learnt from his mistakes and still by far better than any over heavyweight not named Klitsckho
Haye wouldn't fight him. if they did I'd probably put my money on Pulev ... Nothing against haye as a boxer or a person ... but IMo he's bad for boxing because he won't fight the other HWs which are around his level. Pulev's the same age as haye but got in the game later. IMO his HW resume is as good as hayes with wins over dimitrenko, walker, guinn, skelton etc. he's been fighting often with no fuss. haye is relatively inactive with every fight being a negotiation saga before it eventually goes down. It would be great if haye made a statement by beating povetkin or pulev ... but it'll never happen. Wlad will fight Pulev if he wins with little or no drama and BS involved
I heard that Pulev/Ustinov winner is going to fight Walker/Adamek winner. Then the winner will fight Wlad Klitschko.
Pretty good tourney. Just hope that Adamek doesnt win. Nothing against him, he's a warrior who takes on anyone. Just dont want Wlad to fight another cruiser. He has two already, Haye and Mormeck. Plus Adamek would get killed
12-0 shutout loss, and he deserves a rematch? maybe Vitali should give Kevin Johnson a rematch, because he also learned from his mistakes?
Pulev is not dangerous to Volo. He's a good fighter, a fair contender but he matches up very poorly with him, I think. Haye had a significantly better chance, honestly. I think Pulev loses to both a 41-year-old Vitali and a lighter heavy in Haye in all likelihood as well. At any rate, I'd say he has a miniscule chance at taking Vlad. I'm not saying he won't have earned the shot, as he's an honest pro, putting the work in, but he's not a dangerous contender, I don't think. The only thing you have to look forward to is you being a Vladdy fan and seeing another Ring-ranked contender statistic pop up on his list in a showcase fight.
