    pulev is doing pretty well..against wlad like yourself i think he will come up vastly short but will be a tougher than usuall fight for wlad..

    would be a gd enough fight between pov and pulev though for the real hw title lol..

    Great performance by Pulev. Two straight victories, by KO, against two very tall opponents. I think he is ready for Wlad. More ready than Povetkin

    Agree,It was a nice showing for Pulev.Time for him to step it up and I don't mean Rahman.

    legitimative :rofl

    I do think with Kubrat's size, skill, style and jab it will be the most competitve fight Klychko has had during his entire reign.

    Pulev's officially earned his shot against Wlad and should be ranked top 5 in the division now. I was expecting him to win, but to stop the giant is impressive.

    RING had him at #5 before todays win behind Povetkin, Haye and Adamek. I think he deserves to be 2 or 3 with Adamek and Haye behind him. You could argue Povetkin ahead of him with Byrd, Chambers, Huck, Chagaev.

    He definitely should be in front of Adamek. I would like to see Pulev against either of the three before he gets his beating against Wlad :)

    DOn't get too excited, Ustinov got a UD over Michael Sprott and Monte Barratt, not exactly world beating material.

    Context. Byrd was coming off his loss to Volodymyr where he was considered the #1 HW before.

    I don't think he'll beat Wlad, but he's no stiff.
