    Not sure why Pulev is so tremendously overrated in this fight. I made my first Vcash bet for this fight, all on Chisora. Chisora has a better resume. Chisora victim Scott beat Pulev's best win, Thompson; Helenius is a better win than anyone else Pulev beat, and losing efforts against Vitali and Fury I were better than Pulev's losing effort against Wlad

    On top of resume, his style is suited to beating Pulev. Pulev lacks the power and activity level to keep Chisora off him (that Fury and Vitali had, not too mention he's not as big as them). This will be much more like Chisora's fight against Helenius or Scott, unless Del Boy's shot.

    Also, does anyone know if you can get this fight in the US?

    Pulev fought a better and in shape Thompson, his best win is Ustinov, who is better than every win Chisora had, including Helenius or Scott.

    That been said, I can also see this being competitive, most likely scenario is that Pulev jabs Chisora to death but I can see Chisora KO Pulev with his brawling style as well.

    a primer delboy could give pulev some serious workrate isseues.

    but id still favour that jab to edge a prime delboy. so this shouldnt too hard for the cobta.

    :think Good thoughts but I do think Pulev will struggle with this version of Chisora as well. Of course if Chisora still has some fight left in him.

    Ustinov has beaten no one except a beyond shot Tua. Helenius and Scott are much better. Also, Thompson was out of shape against Pulev, he was arguably better and in better shape against Scott. And his last fight before Scott was the best win of his career, in a ko over Solis.

    So, no one knows if its available in the US? I can't find it.

    I think Chisora will be a live underdog. He has the style to give Pulev problems with his pressure and wide punches. Pulev lacks the power or movement to keep Chisora at arms length, Chisora just needs to keep busy.

    In my opinion, Pulev grinds Chisora down gradually in a calculated fashion. Jab is going to be key.

    If Pulev does step up to the plate with a stoppage just shows how badass Wlad is, or was.

    Wow, so little knowledge about boxing in one post. Ustinov knocks Scott out with a jab, also the terribly Helenius who has been exposed badly last month wouldn't stand a chance.

    About Thompson, yeah dude, he literally just got off his couch one hour before he had to fight Scott. Thompson just beat David Price for the second time, his best win in his career, and was in good shape against Pulev. He won the first three rounds on my card, but Pulev adapted quickly and won that fight easily.

    Wow, so much stupidity displayed in one post. Go back to members only tv shows, boxing isn't your thing.

    Ustinov may very well beat Scott, but there's little to prove that at this moment. His resume is **** compared to Scotts, let alone Helenius. Personally, I doubt he could beat current Thompson, let alone Scott. Regarding timeframe for Thompson, Scott, Pulev, just look up the schedules. Thompson booked the Pulev fight about 3 weeks before the fight. He'd fought Price the month before and let himself go afterward, thinking he wouldn't fight for awhile. He still outboxed Pulev for the full first half of the fight, before he gassed out and Pulev took over.

    Yeah, I guess, but by that token, if Chisora pulls out the win, it shows how badass Vitali and Fury were/are.

    Pulev looked awful last fight but Chisora has looked awful for several fights. I'll take Pulev who needs the win to get back into title range where Chisora is stepping stone material at this point.

    My thoughts going into the fight, both will expose themselves as being painfully overrated. I'm looking for dangerous heavyweights, I don't think these two fit the bill as of right now.

    I said stoppage win, not just win. I don't think a points win for either affects anybody else's resume too much.
