    The belts mean **** anyways. If he beats Wlad then he is the ruler of the Heavyweight division...simple as that.

    Wlad pays fees to all 4 organizations to defend them.
    Pulev pays just IBF to save money. Honestly smart move, **** those money grabbing *******s.

    Shows you how confident Sauerland are that Pulev can win.

    Why? If you beat the champion you're the man. No crooked ABC org can change that.

    Belts pay the bills.

    You resign your belts, they will just take their business elsewhere and leave you in the cold.

    If it didn't work out very well for a superstar like Foreman in the late 90s, it certainly won't work for Pulev.

    It would be interesting if Pulev wins because then there will be 3 separate heavyweight champions in reality, if Pulev wins then the whole heavyweight picture gets even worse.

    Not necessarily. It could bring Pulev to fight the Wilder-Stiverne winner as he'd be the recognized champion. That in turn would have Wlad chasing him. In turn we would get to see more top fighter taking chances again trying to unify. It may or may not work out that way but it is one scenario. Its moot though because Wlad is going to beat him handily. Pulev doesnt have the experience to bear Wlad and doesnt hit hard enough to make up for it.

    Very true, Sauerland has never really backed Pulev, they never marketed him and certainly haven't had his back with the Klitschko fight.

    Pulev would be smart to break it off with Sauerland and look for another promoter. One that doesn't associate with any commission that does random drug testing by the amount of bitching he's done on that topic

    The winner of Fury-Chisora fights the winner of this fight, right?

    Hmm... I'm wondering if Kubrat will be allowed to wear gloves that he's actually accustomed to tomorrow. He was going on about that recently.

    Can't see Pulev winning in any scenario whatsoever. Wladimir is willing to pull out all the stops to ensure victory by any means.
