    Not to the point where he could actually win by stoppage. I mean it could technically be possible but it is extremely unlikely. To summarise Pulev isn't dangerous enough to cause a stoppage to happen.

    Probably. He bothered Wlad with some of the shots he landed. But it's likely the fight will mirror the Klitschko/Pulev fight.

    Pulev is a sharp puncher, he punches hard enough to stop AJ walking through him but then he has to be able to throw and land without anything powerful coming back.

    Pulev isn't winning this, unless he is able to outbox AJ without shipping punishment which isn't going to happen.

    Um. You're the one who refused to even entertain the possibility of Klitschko/Joshua even being competitive. You've got no room to talk... Nothing wrong with hypothetical threads like this.

    Pulev may have some early success... He gambled against Klitschko. and thus landed some very hard shots that clearly bothered Wlad, but at the same time that resulted in him being badly hurt several times and blasted out early. That's likely what will happen here.. Expect Pulev to come out guns blazing and possibly stopped early(maybe earlier depending on whether Joshua decides to carry him or not) if he opts to box it could go into the middle rounds.

    AJ is not the same boxer that got rocked in the first two fights on that video, he is levels above now and Wlad’s an ATG that can rock anybody.

    It's a fight in which AJ could be messed about until he forces the stoppage.

    AJ's second best opponent, maybe not as dangerous as say Whyte but he's going to show AJ a different side of boxing.

    I hope Joshua gets the respect he deserves for this fight. Pulev is still far better than anyone Wilder, or Parker has fought yet.

    Joshua is building up a solid resume.

    Glad you saw that too, Pulev went out guns blazing lol..

    Pulev usually boxes with that probing cobra jab but he went out on his shield vs Wlad..

    Pulev could very well hurt Aj but seems it's a pistol vs tank

    Hughie Fury is a beast, I agree though Pulev is better than anyone on Wilder or Parker's resume.

    I'd like Pulev vs Ruiz. Current Pulev should whoop ruiz

    Im bulgarian and support Pulev but i dont think that his current version is any better than Hughie Fury,Takam or even Ruiz Jr.He fought very poor opposition after losing to Wlad and only half decent win was Chisora,fight in which he got rocked in the 9th round or so towards the end badly.Pulev might be even worse than current Whyte,and Whyte is gatekeeper at best for me.

    Pulev clearly beat Chisora, Dillian pretty much drew with him. Pulev is levels above Whyte, anyone that watches their fights against Chisora can see that.

    Joshua is beating two top 5 heavyweights in a row, what is Wilder and Parker doing?

    His legacy starts from the Wlad win, anything before shouldn't be classed as such.
