    He was down against Abell, but not hurt. He was slightly of balance, we'll see how it is tomorrow.

    Decent chin he fought some decent punchers and took their shorts, although not anyone that punches nearly as hard as Wlad, we'll see but I don't think he's the chinny type who'll fold the first punch Wlad lands.

    I've never seen him seriously hurt in the pros, but Wlad hits much harder than anyone he's faced thus far.

    The KD against Abel looks legit on the version of the fight that's up on Youtube but it looked like he was off balance on the one I watched live, which was the Boxnation broadcast. You don't get to see any replays of it or from different camera angles on the one on Youtube but you did on the Boxnation one and I remember thinking at the time that it wasn't a legit KD after seeing it from a different camera angle. Either way, KD or no KD, Pulev wasn't remotely hurt at all.

    He was hurt by Travis Walker though. That said, Walker can really whack and he caught Pulev with a huge shot to the top of the head IIRC. Pulev's power's of recovery were very impressive though. He's got a very good chin, IMO. You can tell he's the durable type just by looking at him. He bears an uncanny resemblance to the granite-jawed Ruslan Chagaev, albeit an elongated version of him. He's got a huge head and a thick short neck. Even if Wlad gets him out of there it doesn't mean he hasn't got a good chin - Wlad is one of the biggest punchers in the history of the sport and he's capable of getting anyone out of there if he catches them right, good chin or not.

    Down again Abel, rocked against Walker and Thompson? Boys, that's a suspect chin, no question.

    Klitschko will show us whether it's glass or granite. :yep

    I was a bit shocked when i watched the Walker fight. Walker started practicing moves on Pulev. There was even a moment where he feinted a jab a came with a upperhook that made Pulev look to the ref like "do something..help me"..

    Average, which means Klitschko will make it look glass (unless he uses his Povetin tactics and does more hugging than punching)

    He was knocked off balance against Abel, he wasn't hurt at all.

    Like Wlad, Pulev is a distance fighter... Which means I think there will be very little wrestling on the inside in this one(hopefully) I've been looking forward to this fight for ages now, and I think we just might get an excellent fencing match here. :good

    Walker is a bit of a glass cannon, he can hurt a lot of people with his power.. Dropped Arreola, Adamek, hurt Pulev... Too bad for him that he's got such a weak chin, and poor heart/dedication.

    Could be a Price type.. you just never know I guess.

    David Tua was cleaned in WC by Savon.
