Pulev vs Wardley

Definitely. I don’t see Pulev making it to the scorecards at this late stage of his career. He might drag it out a bit using crafty veteran tactics and such, but eventually I think Wardley will take him out.

 

OK man, no worries, have a wonderful day.

 

I met Pulev in east London when he was over for the Chisora rematch. He’s obviously long past his peak as a competitive athlete but the bloke has an edge to him. I’ve heard the rumours of organised crime connections in Bulgaria, and have no doubt he’s a handful. At this stage of their careers though, I don’t think he goes 5 rounds with Fabio.

 

Barring the Clarke draw he's come up with the goods so far but I'm still not 100% sold on Wardley and wouldn't be surprised if Pulev at the very least makes him look bad for a couple of rounds.

 

They should have the fight in Sunny Beach during the Summer then!

 

No he isn't

He is past it, and was never a top top heavyweight but crap? No

 

Pulev right up there with Whyte and Chisora providing absolute pathetic world title challenges.

 

Very poor fighter from the first fight I set eyes on him live - O2 World Hamburg November 2014.

The arena had a big contingent of Ivans supporting him but he looked even worse than Whyte at Wembley Stadium.

 

Course he is

 

Pulev was solid/ very good in his prime. He probably dominated a young Chisora more dominantly than anybody.

The timing is right for a Wardley win by KO though, Pulev is nearly 44! But make no mistake about it - in Pulevs prime, Wardley wouldn't have had a prayer, his face would have been jabbed off all night long and then he'd be stopped late.
