    I don't see what Pulev can bring even near from what we've seen in Klitschko vs Joshua. It will finish sooner than Joshua-Povetkin. I guess round 4 or 5 is end of the road for Pulev.

    Pulev Joshua is an interesting fight. . Pulev takes care of himself and his jab is very awkward.

    It should be more competitive than Usyk vs Chisora whcih is why i think its worth the PPV.

    Pulev is even more ancient than Povetkin

    These two small stiff eastern Europeans need to retire.

    I was looking at an old thread with a poll before the Joshua Ruiz 1st fight,, 90 out of 100 picked Joshua, many called it a mismatch. This thread sort of reminds me of that. Joshua should win, but I'm not certain how easy it'd be, not because of Pulev, but Joshua.

    Joshua will probably win regardless, but I think he'd be better served getting into the inside and hooking Pulev to death rather than do "new AJ" by being a bit cautious and more reliant on his jab; that's Pulev's game.

    Pulev's jab might make Joshua wary for a bit till he gets his timing down and smashes old man frowny up with a vicious mid range combination while he's trying his huggy bear routine.

    AJ will have no problem with Pulev. It will be a lot like Klitschko-Pulev.

    I thought I knew that Ruiz would get knocked out.

    The jab is nothing.

    AJ drops him in 1.

    Povetkin retired the British man on 22 August 2020, but you ain't know it yet.

    I look for Wlad to tell AJ over the phone that you don't jab with him and when you decide not to do that you splatter him all over the f**king ring with everything you've got and he won't be able to do sh(! about it but get crushed and AJ will do it and it'll be over. Pulev will finish his career with a whimper and a jab.

    Lmao I think this fight is one of the few fights that has better highlights than Canelo's destruction of Kirkland. Every landed punch looks like it took Pulev's soul.

    A much needed big highlight reel KO win for Joshua.
