    No, more because Wilder is complete dogsh!t.

    Are you saying Huck wasn't a top cruiserweight when he fought Povetkin? I seem to recall he was. Hughie didn't come close to pushing Parker. You have to actually throw punches to do that.


    No to the first, yes to the second.

    He won't beat Wilder because Wilder won't go anywhere near him. He won't beat Joshua because Joshua is the clear number one in the world, but he might make some work for it. He's done it before.

    Don't read this board and ask that. All you'll get is "Wilder sucks." That's the answer for everything.

    Why would he need an impressive recent win to deal with Molina? He'd beat the guy who smashed Molina in one round two years before that loss. And btw, that washed up Adamek is only 9 places under your boy Takam on boxrec. :loel:

    What actually happened was Pulev and his team thought there was a good chance Wlad would invoke his rematch clause against Joshua, and the WBA would approve it, but the IBF wouldn't. So the IBF would strip Joshua, and Pulev would get to fight for a vacant IBF title against some TBA at the bottom of their ratings.

    But Wlad retired, and Joshua decided to defend against his IBF mandatory next. So Pulev, even though he's had basically a year to get ready, said he needed more time. Hearn and the IBF said no. So Pulev's team said he better sign.

    Now, as the fight looms, Pulev has decided his shoulder hurts and he can't fight. The IBF doesn't believe him, so they've made Takam (rated #3) the new mandatory.

    And Pulev will float around fighting nobodies until he gets too old or until the IBF finds a reason to strip Joshua, or until the IBF creates a "regular" belt so Pulev can pull "an Oquendo" and try to get another vacant title fight.

    When you're losing to Artur Szpilka and needing robberies to help you get past the likes of Eddie Chambers and Steve Cunningham it's probably best to hang 'em up.

    That's connections for you.

    Well, Adamek did beat Michael Grant before Takam did. Just needs a win over George Arias or Frans Botha and Tomasz will be right there with him.

    Well, two of those names are certainly superior to Molina. Molina's last fight he needed an MD to beat 13-35-7 Jamal Woods. He is a bum on par with Derric Rossy or Kali Meehan who Breazeale will have a breeze against. Adamek should certainly hang up after losing by stoppage to Molina, but as said he's currently only 8 places under your guy. :facepalm:
