    Fairly even matchup, but I think Pulev wins by decision in a competitive fight.

    +1. I think Pulev will eventually wear TT down.

    Would be an interesting fight. I saw Pulev stop the 6 foot 8 inch, 300 plus pound fighter Ustinov...............Pulez is good fighter. Thompson is the best American heavyweight by far.............Wilder refused to fight Thompson............

    I dont think Thompson has any delusions of granduer.

    He simply wants $$$$ fights he has a good chance of winning.

    Look for him to fight untested hypejobs who have large backings and bring big purses.

    Pulev is neither, and he's legit so there's little chance of that fight coming off.:think

    Tiger has some moments early. Pulev asserts himself mid-to-late fight and rocks/knocks down Thompson. Thompson survives to lose a decision.

    27 people, 40+ percent of the poll, think it will end in a knockout? ...'the hell, man?

    It´s hard to get a decision against a Sauerland-fighter. Thompson will have to knock Pulev out to get the win.

    If this fight happens it probably ends up as an IBF eliminator. This is a good fight but there's no way I'd want to see Wlad-Thompson 3.

    I think Pulev would beat Thompson but Thompson is a live underdog if this fight happens.

    ??? Pulev is a large, mobile, fast and skilled heavyweight. He will easily out point Thompson, who really is not a huge puncher.

    If Pulev wins here, he is for sure #4 after the Klitschkos, and Povetkin.

    WHo has Pulev beat???? Thompson will be the best fighter he has faced by far. But Pulev found a way to duck Thompson and will now face Chisora

    Lets be honest here.

    Thompson only beat a british hype job on highest order.

    That's it...
