    Haye would put Pulev to sleep in 7 rounds.

    I think he is technically good and certainly capable of beating almost all heavyweights out there. outside of Wlad he has the best jab out there a jab that has real pop in it, however his lack of power is an issue and also his size, Wlad beats him for sure Pulev has a style made for Wlad and even if he got inside hasn't the big power to trouble Wlad, i expect him to win a belt when Klitschko's retire and no doubt he is one of the better heavyweights around but as pointed out thats not difficult, he would give Wlad a test but many said Povetkin would test Wlad also and that was one sided, Pulev hasn't the physical attributes to beat Wlad.

    Kinda how I see it ^. He beats most other heavies out there using techniques not dissimilar to Wlad. Wlad wouldn't be able able to mug him a la Povetkin, but he wouldn't need to; Pulevs jab, jab, right is very effective, but it's a game Wlad plays better.

    With Regards to Chisora, I think Del Boy just gets jabbed to a standstill, it'd be a punishing night for him I think. Still, Del Boy's OK, and I'd never get tired of watching him get punched in the face. Get it made already.

    I'll tell ya one thing for free, if Wlad is going 6 rounds with tatent-less guys like Pianeta , that amount of time is ample for Pulev to jab the moral and slice up the skin of Wlad. Wlad under pressure and under panic is not effective.
    If Pulev has him in retreat , its up for Wlad.

    Wlad throws jabs with amassing speed. Pulev cant do that unfortunately and he is not that agile like Haye for instance. He is suppose to dance a bit more on the ring in order to avoid Wlad's left hand. Pulev's right hand is not the one of a champion. I think he is not doing enough at the gim or atleast not doing the right things. The way he trains it's kinda Old Fashioned.
    Wlad has own instructor, follows strict food regime. The way Wlad looks, his body, muscles is another advantage. Wlad fights at ~ 112kg, Pulev at 114-115kg and yet hes the shorter one.
    Nonetheless Wadimir Klitschko posses PhD, speaks 4 languages etc.

    What does the OP mean when he says you "do not rate him". You don't think Pulev is a legit top 10 HW?

    Did you even bother to read my post you goddamn ****ing spastic? What does this have to do with Pulev being European (just as me)?

    Who do you rate except for the two reigning heavyweight champions? Please post your heavyweight top ten list. I would LOVE to take a look at it with Pulev not being included...

    I'd go further ... Haye would beat both Batman and Superman on the same night. Is there anything Haye couldn't do?

    Pulev doesn't have much power for a fighter his size but he has a great jab and is a master of managing and controlling distance. Also has a solid chin. The one thing he seems to lack is killer instinct. It seems like he just goes out and executes his gameplan, and whatever happens, happens. It never seems like he wants to step it up to the next gear if he doesn't need to.

    If he fights Wlad I see him trying to out jab him from the outside early on (perhaps effectively), but when Klitschko steps it up and starts to take over he will just continue to jab from the outside en route to a UD loss. I like him though and think he's very good technically.
