    Why would he duck out of the biggest payday of his life??? Pulev is a very dangerous fighter, he just lacks that huge shot.

    Neither AJ nor Whyte want the BULGARIAN SMOKE.

    Yeah, I think with Pulev it was just a case that the guy was injured. It happens.

    People are sleeping on Pulev. He’s very dangerous, one hell of a jab, solid chin, height and reach. He’s much better than Miller/Breazeale and Schwarz.

    I don't see him as a huge threat to the main 3 but outside of those he's absolutely a problem. But, at the age where he can just fade overnight now

    Those rankings are a joke, Miller/Breazeale.Schwartz are C level and I am being generous.

    There is no standout between AJ/Wilder/Fury, none of them have a career defining fight........they need to fight each other to sort it out...full stop.

    Whyte is a glorified punch bag with heart but I believe he deserves a decent pay day.

    Most fans appear to be accountants on this board who talk non stop about purse this and purse that.

    This is exactly what played out in the mid 80's, a Heavyweight wasteland with no clear cut stand out fighter unless Tyson came around and cleaned out the trash but sadly there aint no Tyson type fighter on the horizon........and please, it aint the cruiser who has not even had a Heavyweight fight., that is a non starter, period.

    He's over the hill.
    But, yes, deserves to be rated well above those bums for now.

    I don't know why he would .Why has Wilder done the same thing?

    Not 12 days before the fight where he was set to make major wedge and challenge for the world titles. He was injured, he didn’t s*** himself just cos it was AJ. Very cynical mate.

    Pulev will be cake for AJ, he is too slow ,too old, and lacks top end power.

    Yeah, I think Joshua would do a job on him, too. If he tried to box him I think it would be tit for tat with the success but as soon as Joshua puts his foot down and takes a few chances he’d bingo him.

    Well has he? His biggest names are Klitschko and Parker. Fury's been in with (a younger) Klitschko and Wilder, as well a few half decent contenders (Hammer, Chisora *2) AJ has a better résumé, make no mistake but it's not by much
