    Here's some short radio interview with Kubrat Pulev after the news about Klitchko choosing Boytsov as his next opponent was confirmed:
    http://gong.bg/view_article.php?article_id=384841

    Pulev: I am training in Germany. I will have a fight on Dec 14 in Neubrandenburg, Germany[this is the Braehmer vs Oliveira card]. I still don't know who my opponent will be, but we hope to know for sure by the end of the week.

    Question: What are your expectations about your opponent? Who might he be?
    Pulev: I don't know, I've said it before - whoever they put in front of me I will fight, I am not concerned whoever it is.

    Question: What do you put on the line in this fight?
    Pulev: The IBF International title and the IBF mandatory spot for Klitchko title fight.

    Question: Your promoters at Sauerland announced that not you but your stablemate Dennis Boytsov will be the next opponent for Wladimir Klitchko?
    Pulev: It was expected for them to choose Boytsov. Not only don't they choose the hardest opponent(myself), but they opt for the easiest option they have. I expect them not to give me the shot before September-October next year.

    Question: Have you fought Boytsov?
    Pulev: We've had sparrings. I think even he knows that he doesn't have a chances against me.

    As expected Wlad choses the low level guy most suited to his own level.

    I know total bull****. Wlad get yet again another tomato can in front of him. Wlad is just trying to pad his record and get rich off the European fans. He should fight Pulev next at least he earned his shot. Boytsov has beat no one and should not get a title shot. There is no excuse for him taking these pointless fights anymore. I'm sick of Wlad screwing up boxing with his boring ass fights. Boytsov is to damn small and fragile.

    Man he didn't destroy Povetkin. All he did was hug him all night and push down on his back. You Wlad nutsuckers are pathetic trying to justify Wlad's cheating style. Wlad should have been DQ'd yet you still take up for him.

    I wasn't aware hugging and pushing someone would make them look like they were in a car wreck.

    Pulev stated before the Povetkin fight that he'd like to take a tune up before he fights Wladimir. No duck here, just Wladimir choosing to keep busy while his mandatory chooses to take a tune up.

    It was very aggressive hugging apparently.

    Was the fight aesthetically pleasing? No, but Wladimir clearly understood his opponent and broke him down in such a way that minimized his own chances to lose. I'd call that being smart.

    Real fight fans should know that in a 60+ fight career, you will have some ugly fights.

    Pulev said another fight if Wlad does not give him a date soon. Wlad's camp still has not mentioned a word about fighting Pulev and when. Instead they talk about Boytsov and Ustinov/Tua. And no, I am not a K2 hater at all.
