    Almost certain now to be AJ v Pulev on April 13th, 2019 at Wembley, with Wilder and Finkel Ringside.

    If it goes past 3 rounds it's because Joshua carries him.

    Joshua is all wrong for Pulev, big punch, good left hook and uppercut, knows how to prevent the clinch by using the elbow, is physically bigger and stronger so won't be backed up unless he want to.

    Yeah can't see it happening, won't even do 1 mill PPV's in the UK, Pulev like Takam will be seen as a foregone conclusion.

    But Pulev is better than Takam and he beat two British fighters (Chisora and Hughie), so while he won't be considered a threat for AJ, he is still better known opponent than Takam.

    I think Pulev performs better than Povetkin did against Joshua.

    He's also known as a whinger who spent the build up crying he hadn't had enough time to prepare despite having a more than ample amount before pulling out last minute which led to the Takam fight.

    Do they both get held to the same standards as far as actual PED testing?? If so then Pulev by UD.

    True but Takam at least is known to be a reasonably entertaining fighter, everyone who knows Pulev knows he is boring to watch. He's horribly over matched vs Joshua and if he is somehow competitive you know he's gonna jab and clinch his way to a boring points loss not many will have watched tonight's fight and will look forward to seeing Joshua/Pulev.

    Easy night's work for AJ. Pulev was poor tonight - but Hughie bear was much poorer.

    I don't even have Pulev in the HW top 10.

    Joshua would take advantage of Pulev being completely wide open to a left hook and ktfo him by mid rounds.

    Don't see Eddie being keen on this fight though unless he's forced to - a really difficult one to sell.
