    Can a natural 190/200 pounder defeat a very calculating 6'4 250 pounder who was also a very unothidox fighter?I don't think so,i think Pulev crushes him,i cant see this going long...****ey was not pulev and was on the down slide with drugs and alchohol when he was in the mid 80's,popularity cannot win fights either...how does this go if only skill is involved?

    A 250 pounder is going to hit hard regardless..add in his subtle skills?i think pulev is a very difficult fighter to defeat,and certainly his comments before the Wlad fight didn't help him either"Wlad hits like a girl"...well we ALL know that's not true.

    Pulev would have easily outboxed Spinks.

    needing to wait till 40something tony thompson gassed out before being able to start outboxing him?

    spinks I can understand why he got a shot at the title, he'd unified at lhw and moved up.

    but pulev had no right to be in the ring. you should be asking why he got a shot.

    Spinks has far greater experience and far greater championship experience. He beat a bigger and far more lethal puncher in ****ey. His record at heavyweight isn't great but it's still better than Pulev's.
    Pulev is okay, nothing special. His biggest win is against ancient Tony Thompson, and he struggled for a while to win. Otherwise his record is littered with 'never-was' types like Ustinov and Guinn or complete nobodies.
    I don't see Pulev as unorthodox; Spinks is far more so.

    Aside from being bigger, Pulev has no advantages over Spinks. Again, Spinks beat a bigger and heavier-punching ****ey, and he did it easily.
    He has nothing to fear from the limited Pulev.

    Are we talking Leon or Michael? Leon was the natural 200 pounder; Michael was smaller.
