    Heard it was because they couldn't agree the right distribution of the purse, anyways the past is the past. Right now a Pulev fight would be a great way for Fury to send a message back to the division.

    I'm sure the coward Hearn would like this fight to pad his protégé more hype. Actually, Joshua is a coward as well
    for taking this fight. They both stink and will be exposed. I'm concerned about the 90,000 nut jobs that think these guys are the real deal.

    Don't worry, it ain't happening. Wlad II is his next fight.

    Don Trella: 96-93 Joshua
    Steve Weisfeld: 95-93 Klitschko
    Nelson Vazquez: 95-93 Joshua

    Wlad survives and sweeps the 11th and 12th, and we'd still get one judge for Joshua, one for Wlad, and one dead even.

    He'd have needed another knockdown to get a decision.

    Joshua will destroy him. But it is definitely a worthy fight. Pulev is still top 10 at the division.

    Pulev is a sitting duck for Joshua. He won't make it 3 rounds.

    IBF will strip AJ if the rematch goes ahead. They did it to Fury starting the crazy run of events which had Charles Martin walking like a God with a belt.

    If AJ is serious about becoming the world champion in the lineal sense, he will have to fight Pulev and what ever mandatory fights that are due. All between positioning for unification bouts for the WBC and WBO.

    Wlad will demand an immediate rematch.
    IBF will strip Joshua and order a fight between Kubrat Pulev and Charles Martin for the vacant title.
    Pulev will dislocate his shoulder in round 2. Martin will become two-time champion.
    Martin will come over to the UK and get paid millions to defend against a comebacking Tyson Fury.

    Pulev-Another fighters on a strict year around PED testing regimen.

    Ha ha ha so many boxing experts right here just because Klitschko won against Kubrat Pulev doesn't mean that Joshua would just walk thru Pulev... think about few things Wlad was 38 years old juiced to grills when he fought pulev. He was 41 and confortably outboxed AJ so what makes you think Pulev won't be able to touch joshua??? Pulev is top amateur and top pro with jab that can beat joshua on his own and I bet my house that joshua can be KOED By Pulev.... this is 115kg men 1 punch can change everything

    Also I think Joshua is Kinda slow and bulky and soon as any contender that doesnt go down from his flurrys he will loose them titles

    Pulev`s best hope is Joshua to vacate so Pulev can fight against Takam or so for IBF vacant title,he will make less money that way but might milk the title for a bit if he wins it instead.

    Pulev is my countryman but he has zero % chance to win against punchers,he is featherfisted and leaky defence.Absolutely no way in hell he can win against : Povetkin,Joshua,Ortiz,Klitchko,Wilder and such big punchers on top of my head right now.

    He will only get badly hurt.Cant outbox them,cant punch them out,nothing at all.
