https://www.google.co.uk/amp/www.sk...y-set-for-ibf-eliminator-against-kubrat-pulev I’m backing fury to win spilt decision witch should really be unanimous, think he will school Pulev. Pulev to old to stiff for slick fury.
Fury just got to make it so obvious he’s on top that they have no choice but to give him the decision.
If Fury gets royally robbed over there in Bulgaria it can certainly go towards justifying Miller and Whyte saying no thank you. The country is run by their mafia and they are willing to spend over the odds to get the Pulev fights in the country, i can see why people feel dubious.
England is the motherland of robberys and the BRITISH stoppage. If they are singing 'ITs COMING HOME' they mean the robbery in boxing not a world cup, guys. No, seriously, GBR isn't any better than Bulgaria i assume but the home advantage in Bulgaria is still a big one and i can not see Fury outpointing Pulev that clearly that he takes a close decision.
I dont think score cards in the UK are bad these days and the refs dont seem as bad as they once where, I remember Nigel Benn being given the longest 10 count ever when he had to get back in the ring against McClellan. I also have a vague recolection of a British fighter virtually carried back to his corner by a ref in a major fight but cant quite remember who it was. But i dont really see much of that any more. Wont argue the British stoppage though, not when people can throw the AJ Takam stoppage at me.
Kubrat Pulev is old and slower than he was, and Hughie Fury should be coming into his prime at age 23 I think Hughie will win by decision
If the Skirt accepts the fight and doesn't have an "ow my back moment" like he did prior to going to NZ yo fight Parker" he could give a Shades of Ali performance and out point Pulev quite comfortably.
If it happens I say Fury wins. It's another jab and grabber vs a taller more mobile Fury again and we all saw what happened between Fury and Wlad when these 2 styles met before. Whether Fury gets the decision is another story.
