    Every fighter matched with Wilder should demand 50/50 or no fight.

    Depends I know the WBO purse bids are 60-40, for the champs and mandatories I don’t think those splits are too upset because if you win that fight as the challenger you get the title. However if I’m Miller and I have to take 25% against Pulev just to become the mandatory then I take 25% against AJ it’s ridiculous, I would rather go the WBO route and get 60-40.

    "Beef baby" thought Cro Cop was a heavy Hitta wait till DW KO's him clean unconscious. Wilder already sent BB to the hospital after sparring!o_O

    Miller knows that Pulev will jab and 1-2 his way to a wide decision win.

    Yes I feel this being the likely outcome as well.. Millers defense is based around being hit in the face while trying to land his own..

    No way. Miller breaks Pulev down hands down. Negotiations are still ongoing. Miller wants the fight, like everyone else, Miller doesnt want to go to Bulgaria, like everyone else... why? Sofia Bulgaria isnt exactly mordern multicultural London or New York, the black guy against the local slavic hero in Eastern Europe where the local sports comissioner threatens to cut the balls off the judges if their guy loses? Miller will get disqualified if he kos Pulev let alone get a fair shake in regards to a decision. Hopefully after Whyte Pulev notices a pattern developing and comes to his senses.

    Yeah there's never been a corrupt decision state side, England, Germany or anywhere else in Western Europe. Get real lol. If Pulev is anywhere near the fight he was 2-3 years ago he beats Miller easy.

    Jarrel Miller "light" got outboxed by a washed up Cro Cop.

    Obviously never been to Bulgaria before lol. Aint no chance in hell the foreign black guy is allowed to beat the local slavic hero whose suppose to win, just the way things still are in that part of the world, thats why no one, especially Whyte or Miller are going to fight in Bulgaria.

    Miller is all wrong for Pulev, Pulev loves to jab from a distance to set up the right, but theres a reason he has no kos on his highlight real, he doesnt have the power or the legs to keep a huge pressure fighting/volume puncher like Miller at bay. Miller will walk straight through anything Pulev has got, in case you missed his last 3 fights, Miller eats soft handed heavyweight boxers like Pulev for breakfast.

    That doesn't mean it can't be a clinic like against Ustinov and Dimitrenko. Pulev broke those guys down by dissecting them with jabs and 1-2s despite his lack of power. If Pulev uses movement + establishes the jab he could coast to a decision against Miller(especially if he comes in heavy) without even really changing gears. Pulevs lack of power wouldn't really mean much because he's not going to trade on the inside with Miller and his jab is enough to get respect from Miller, it's not exactly a sissy punch. Miller dropped rounds to Washington, he's hardly a flawless unstoppable juggernaut of death. Pulev at his best(or near it) is a good level or two above him.

    What's Miller going to do inside? He doesn't really have much pop either..

    Lol, yes it does. Miller fights nothing like either Ustinov or Dimintrenko. If you're going to beat Miller you better have the legs of Hughie Fury, the power of Anthony Joshua or the punch output of Joe Joyce. Last time I checked, Pulev has the power of Hughie Fury, but none of the above required.

    Miller dropped the first round to Washington, he drops the first round to Pulev, he drops the first round to everyone. After that first round when everyone realizes the onslaught and smothering never stops, they knuckle under. Pulev wont have a choice whether or not hes going to trade on the inside with Miller, he hasnt got the legs, power or punch output to keep him off of him beyond the first round. Styles make fights, Pulev at his best still loses to Miller by late TKO, ala Washington and Wach. Big Baby breaks down and eats guys like Pulev up.

    Based on what exactly? Miller hasn't been in with anyone half as good as Pulev... He's also slower than molasses. His best win is Duhaupas who is a European - fringe world level guy and he wasn't at his best when Miller fought him. Followed by Washington who's a completely useless Football convert and a tiny disinterested Kassi. Pulev's been in with much better competition and he beat someone who fights exactly like Miller(different physical attributes) in Chisora who's quicker and more dynamic. Pulev did that despite even really changing gears.

    Also... If this is as lopsided of a fight as you're suggesting it wouldn't matter if it were in Bulgaria or not. Since Miller is as you say "all wrong for him." is pretty much guaranteed to get the stoppage.

    People like White and Miller should be punished hard for refusion to fight, after they loe purse bid.
    And what is this nonsenses, where the fight should be and that Pulev would be favorite?
    It could be said exactly the same for Hearn fighters, and for Miller fight in US, that they will help Miller.
    And for the country Bulgaria, the bid and the money, did you all realize the money that Miller will get will be his highest by 4-5 time ?
    Miller will get $527k.
    So that is a pure ducking at highest level.
