    Pulev seems to lack the power for big KOs. Wlad has a soft chin so anything is possible. When I saw how Pulev had trouble landing big shots on Dimitrenko it became obvious he has very little punching power.

    Wlad does not have a " soft chin ".. smh

    His KO losses were results of fatigue, not chin..

    You little kids dont know **** about boxing.

    UHm excuse me, 8 times out of 10 when Wlad gets hit with a punch he seemed wobbled or impressed. Momentarily phazed. I like Wlad since over a decade, but if you can't agree he has a soft chin you're an idiot.

    WTF! Dimitrenko was reluctant to absorb anymore of these little power punches. His legs bended in the 11th rd from a jab. Pulev strategy, in my opinion will be to exhaust Wlad. If Pulev can take the fight to rd 10 ...

    The Sanders KO loss was due to an element of surprise more than anything else..

    I would compare that round to Pacman-Marquez 1 where marquez suffered multiple knockdowns by getting caught off guard.. Cortez could have easily waved the fight off but Marquez lucked out..

    Wlad wasn't expecting such speed and aggression from Sanders and got caught slipping.. That's all..

    That is no indication of somebody having a bad chin..

    Sanders almost send Vitali to the ground. That guy has incredible speed and power in his hands.
    If you watch this match closely there was other factors as well. After Klitschko change almost hes entire squad, he is different fighter.
    He cant rely much on his chin, but its not that bad as anyone thinks.

    Wlad took some good power shots against Haye and Wach. He was visibily hurt but showed composure and quick recovery.

    IT's a stupid notion that Wlad has a glass chin.. His chin is ok..

    Pulev himself has horrible stamina. He was huffing and puffing after round 5 vs. Ustinov and lowered his work rate dramatically.

    Again, if Pulev shows up like he did against Ustinov, Thompson and Dimitrenko (that's the fights I saw) then he will get absolutely destroyed. Pulev boxed D rate fighters and struggled with them. Wlad is not one but 3 levels above them.
