    Looking at this matchup (March 31st) and I can't see how a mentally fickle Dimitrenko can win this. Anyone seeing a realistic chance for him at all? How strong is Pulev?

    I he loses this I wouldn't be surprised if Dimitrenko retired from pro boxing. He's without a promoter after his ugly split with Universum and basically is looking for a final payday.

    Pulev is overrated. Even Dimitrienko would be able to win against him.

    Pulev wins this for me! Yes he is hittable but he has a very strong chin!
    Dimitrenko is a mental midget!

    For a guy with 15 fights Puleev has quite a resume and this would be a nice addition

    I know Dimitrenko has disappointed in the past but i think ppl on esb underrated him immensely

    maybe hes not as good as he should or could be but he is still a big experienced guy who can punch

    this will either be Dimitrenko being too much of a step up or Puleevs coming out

    also this is another great scenario of sanctioning bodies and their need for sanctioning fees

    they stripped Dimitrenko because he was hurt but not gonna be out for too long just to give it to another guy who they strip it off of just to possibly give it right back to Dimitrenko

    might has well have not stripped him in the first place

    Dimitrenko signed a contract with Sauerland in February I just read. Interesting, I didn't think they'd be interested in him.

    I don't think so, but I don't rate Dimitrenko at all

    I'm rooting for Pulev and I think he has the capability to outpoint and even KO Dimitrenko
