    first, Adamek doesn't want to fight Pulev, claiming that the Bulgarian isnt a big enough draw to make a fight in the US, then Fury backs out of an eliminator with Kubrat to probably fight David Haye

    nobody wants a piece of Pulev, his jab alone strikes fear into the top heavyweights, not to mention that sadistic, Vitali-like smile he always has :deal

    Am I missing something because as far as I'm aware Fury not pulled out of purse bids as of yet, don't get me wrong i think he might, if the Haye fights there for him, and you can understand that to be fair to him.

    a duck is a duck, regardless whether it's for better money or plain fear of a guy

    The most boring ****ing bull**** on this forum is someone not taking a fight automatically indicates ducking. Haye is every bit as dangerous a fighter as Pulev, deciding to fight him over Pulev is hardly ducking anyone, in fact i give Fury a better chance against Pulev than Haye, though i think both beat him.

    Even Pulev promotor has said he'd fully understand Fury fighting Haye instead as long as the IBF sanction Pulev as mandatory, which they absolutly should, and should have a long time ago.

    Anyway can you provide a link to say Fury has pulled out of purse bids or not

    Fury has not pulled out of the bid, I fully well know that, he just claimed that he has a big announcement on June 8th on his Twitter, and I expect him to announce Fury-Haye sometime this year

    of course Pulev's promoter will be happier, because if Fury pulls out, Pulev will be a mandatory for Wlad without fighting in an eliminator

    You fully well know that he hasn't backed out of purse bids but in your opening post stated that Fury has backed out the fight :huh

    Anyway I suspect you are right that Fury will fight Haye not Pulev, but again it's hardly ducking.

    He's taking a fight against Haye that he is highly likely to lose for a **** load more money than a fight against Pulev, which he probably loses as well. He's hardly avoiding Pulev to fight some bum for a mandatory spot but someone who is ranked higher than Pulev by the likes of the ring and the transitional boxing rankings i believe. If he decides to fight someone like Helenius instead of Pulev then I'd agree with you that it's looks like he's avoiding Pulev.

    As for Pulev really hope he gets his shot at Wlad soon, he's a quality fighter and has perhaps the best chance of beating him IMO

    I'm maybe being dense, and I may offend a few, but I can't see fury as a serious contender. He might, just might, land one of the alphabets when the Ks retire, but his best bet at a payday might be heading for them now.

    IMO, Pulev grants him the quickest shot, but I, personally can't see him getting through Pulev. His other possible route has him going through Haye, which would offer a good financial reward in itself, but again I just can't see him winning.

    Finally, he could slow down his hype-train (if his team truly believe in his potential) and build up a bit:- this should offer the greatest long term reward, but given the traditional impatience of his UK fan base might backfire.

    Back to topic. Yeah, I can't see any of the heavies that actually want a piece of Pulev, for me he's the top of the bunch behind the Ks, alongside Povetkin, and even Alex/Wlad's not proving an easy one to finalise apparently.


    Edit: @stevebhoy, looks like I've virtually repeated a lot of your ideas, I guess reading all the posts properly coulda saved a little time.

    Fury would give Pulev a hell of a fight if not beat him. Honestly the Fury who schooled Kevin Johnson would probably beat Pulev. Fury when he boxes is 10x better than slow and talentless stiffs like Ustinov and Dimitrenko.

    So why not fight Pulev beat him and after that have a fight with Wladimir?
    It seems Fury is not so confident about winning a fight against Pulev.
    After Cunningham he said he wants Pulev. So what happend now?
