:thumbsup cuz I sure didn't wanna see Klitschko KO Thompson for the 3th time!!! :nono IF waldo beats Povetkin... I think Pulev will get to Waldo's chin!! :hey but I'm in the minority who thinks this whole Russia Boxing Event smells of a Upset Victory for Povetkin!!! a Povetkin vs Klitschko Trilogy??? :think
I am glad Pulev won too. Can't wait to see him in action again. If Povetkin pulls off the upset (they poison Vladimir or some other nasty stuff), then we can see Pulev vs Povetkin for all the titles. And then Vlad may have to try taking his titles back from Pulev Some interesting things may happen but too many ifs.
Im glad Pulev won...... Not that I thought Thompson would or even had a chance...... But in the event that he pulled a Walker and caught Pulev and somehow finished him off..... K2 woulda been offering Tony huge stepaside money to drop his mandatory status, and Wlad would have forever been called a duck, just like some idiots claim he was ducking DelBoy when Haye refused their match if Wlad would have made the March rescheduled date.:rofl:rofl:rofl
I think there are plans to drug Vlad, poison his food, put gas in his air conditioning unit or whatever they can do. I hope Klitschko brings his own food and water, checks out the Hotel venting system, etc., Chef should help do this. It's up to Chef to see that Vlad's food is safe, do not accept the food in Moscow. The "ONLY" way Povetkin can beat Vlad is if they pull dirty trick, cheating, such as above. However, I think Vitali/Vlad are aware of the plans of Povetkin to cheat. Even Teddy Atlas told Povetkin he had no chance to beat Vlad. It's true.
I think Pulev will give Wlad the toughest fight he's had in years. Povetkin is a very good heavyweight, but his style is tailor-made for Wlad. Pulev is an intelligent boxer who makes adjustments as a fight progresses. He's a very tough man with strong punch resistance and excellent stamina. I think he has a better chance of pulling an upset than Povetkin.
If Pulev looked terrible and got beat the first 4 rounds straight by gramps Thompson, do you honestly think he's in the same league as either KBro. While Pulev is the better opponent now for Wlad, he will get schooled/destroyed/annihilated and most likely stopped by Wlad. Pulev's hype the last few years simply does not match with reality. He's an all around type of fighter, doing everything adequately, but nothing especially well. I think he needs a least one more win against a younger more active top 10, to convince me he has more than a prayer against Wlad.
