    Yes, I expect him to be below 112 as well, likely around 110. It would be a mistake to come too heavy against Klitschko who is already very fast. Pulev will need to be as mobile as possible.

    Nope. Pulev was almost 114 kg against Perkovic - exactly 251 lbs. The heaviest he has ever been was against Rossy - a litlle more than 254 lbs.

    Perkovic never went to weigh in so that info is not correct if it matters something

    For sure not the opponent he/Sauerland pick. His last 2 opponent was absolutely joke. And not only they.
    Who was the opponent Pulev have, that have a cardio for whole match ? Or that lead the pace ? Or have a good speed and power? Absolutely no one.
    The only good opponent he have, and it was out of his best shape was The Tiger, who was better when he got a cardio for first 3-4 rounds. He run out of gas and was game over.
    So far Pulev opponent was heavy bags, thats all.
    There is good guys out there, and Pulev must face them first, but maybe he will fight them after Klitschko.
    Chisora, Fury, Povetkin and the list goes on.

    At this point there is likely nobody to prepare him for Klitschko, so he's either good enough or not good enough, we'll find it out soon.

    Pulev already fought and defeated tall guys in Ustinov, Dimitrenko and Thompson. While they are all very far from the level of Wladimir, they could still be considered better preparation than someone like Chisora for example.

    As for Pulev's last 2 opponents, those were just 2 tune-up fights to keep him active, as his management was unable to find him more appropriate opponents, yet probably didn't want to risk the mandatory status against some of the highly ranked contenders.

    Only two more weeks away. Any more predictions? I feel Pulev's best chance is to set a very high work rate and to utilize his quickness as much as possible. Still like Wlad to win but that would be my gameplan for Pulev.

    I want to see what kind of Chin Pulev has. Also, Pulev seems to have some scar tissue above his right eye. Wonder if he will be susceptible to cuts from Klitschko's Jab and right hand.

    This will be an all out jab battle, won by the taller man with the longer reach and bigger power.
    Late stoppage by Wlad or a very wide UD with at least one KD.

    Will be a much tougher fight than expected. Wlad has a great power advantage but does not take risks against fighters of Puelv's quality. He is going to try to jab and grab, only to find that Pulev is a big boy with an excellent jab himself.

    Will be a tough, tactical fight. Wald should win, but the upset is not out of the question.

    You are so wrong Pulev was only down in KD 1 time in amateurs he had only 1 count... that are his words and if u find his amateur recosrd u will see that he never lost from TKO or KO ... dont talk out of your ass... his chin is granite see some of the shots he took against Ustinov in round 3 7 8 and u will see what i talk about... he has a fast reset mechanism... cant be KOed with 1 or 2 punches
