    Sure, I think he rocked Wlad a little. I don't think he will though

    He can but it's unlikely- if he fights like he did against Wlad he's getting KO'd within six.

    sure he can, theyre Heavyweights and AJs chin depletes after his energy is sapped BUT i dont think it will get to the point where AJ is gassed

    The only thing I would say about AJ getting tagged is, is lower body freezes his upper body keeps moving.
    However he did anwser a lot of questions against VK, he got tagged hard got dropped and got up again.
    Have to give the man credit where credit is due. I just think this thread is another AJ bashing exercise.

    Of course he can. It's heavyweight boxing.

    I notice the Klitschko fight has been referenced a few times as a measure of Pulev’s theat to Joshua. I think it’s worth noting that that version of Klitschko was still sharp and devastating and very experienced. That was his 66th fight. Joshua is starting to build an impressive resume’ but this is still only his 20th professional fight. He’s very exciting to watch but he still has plenty of flaws and inexperience. Pulev’s been around the block and will feel that he can exploit those flaws. It wouldn’t surprise me at all if Pulev catches him.

    No matter what happens though, Joshua is destined to go on and be an ATG. If I was Pulev though, I would rather fight him now whilst he’s 19-0-0 than if he got beat. I’d hate to fight a version of Joshua who had been humbled and learnt massively from his defeat and corrected the flaws.

    100% - but at his age he might be too slow to have much success. Better fight than it is getting credit for. If he was clean I would like to see aj in with Povetkin - I think he would give aj major problems

    It's heavyweight boxing, Pulev has a punchers chance.
