    Booker is now 38 years old and active again since 2018 following an almost 15 year break after his loss to James Toney in 2004.

    Oh, wow, I was waiting for this fight for YEARS.

    My burning question was not, will GGG and Canelo do the trilogy, or whether Usyk can clean up HW, or whether Pacquiao and Floyd would do the rematch ... but when would Booker and Pulev finally meet?

    OMG, its finally happening :wanker

    I know he's waiting for the payday but pretty poor opponent all the same.

    WOW when I saw that name I instantly thought "was that the dude who fought James Toney"? Looked him up, didn't even realize he went to prison and recently started fighting again. Strange.

    Pulev KO2.

    It's sad too. Because Pulev is still one of the better fighters in the division.

    Jeez this is bad. Dave Allen would be a much better opponent.

    Fighting guys who were fringe contenders in the early 2000's is all the rage these days.

    Yeah because he was in jail.

    Booker is a decent counterpuncher with nice skillset but too old. Just feeling happy for him getting a nice payday here. He was doing very well till he gassed the **** out vs. Jermaine Franklin - who is btw one of the most overrated "prospects" ever. He's so bad man.
