Topic: [ POLL ]: Boxing - Anthony Joshua vs Kubrat Pulev - page 3. (Read 4411 times)
Joshua won by a TKO in the ninth round he won all rounds it was an easy fight for Joshua those hard uppercuts gave Pulev wobbly legs and Joshua finish it with a straight right this will set up a fight against Fury, and Joshua have proven that Bob Arum and Fury is very wrong in giving a prediction about the fight.
Joshua knocks out Pulev. It is all over.
What's your assessment on Joshua?
Is he ready to face the Gypsy King and be the king in the Heavyweight division?
I don't think that Joshua has the tool to beat Fury at this point. Although Joshua has matured after the lost against Ruiz, Fury is well rounded and all around though. And we have seen that Fury has the chin or at least can recover very quickly after a hard knock-down, while Joshua's chin has been broken by Ruiz already. So I couldn't imagine if Fury hit's him with the same power that he gave Wilder in the trilogy. I think he can knock out Joshua cold.
I think Fury will beat Joshua, simple as that.

ROUND 3:
Pulev got battered badly. Joshua knocked him down twice, first when Pulev turned his back and the second was a clean knock down.
Joshua failed to finish him off in the round !!
ROUND 4:
Joshua failed to cause damage to Pulev and allowed him to get back in to the fight. Pulev is not done yet.
ROUND 5:
Pulev landed a couple of one-two combinations directly on to the head of Joshua. Joshua started jabbing again...
ROUND 6:
Not sure what I just saw here because sure Joshua looks like he could unleash punches while he dances around Pulev and jabs him but Pulev is throwing right-handers that are missing Joshua. Strange fight.
ROUND 7:
A good combination and flurry of uppercuts from Joshua but no damage done to Pulev. For his return, Pulev is throwing punches back and seems to have fully recovered from the round knock downs.
ROUND 8:
Pulev caught Joshua with a one-two combination and apart from that nothing much happened in this round. Pulev is getting more and more aggressive as the fight goes on while is still jabbing and trying to control the fight.
ROUND 9:
Joshua knocks out Pulev. It is all over.

After two rounds it still is unclear who will win, too much defensive attitude from both of them...
This won't go the distance.
. Pulev was careless in the edit:
I thought that Pulev have recovered from that brutal beating in the second round but the Joshua uppercut is very lethal and did damage to Pulev that ended the night for him in the ninth round.

Great day for boxing fan like us, the awaited fight will happen in few hours so I'll relax for awhile and watch this fight. I hope this fight would last and it will not be a boring one, the key to make this fight entertaining is for Pulev to keep fighting as aggressive as he is.
Good luck to our bets.
Good luck to our bets.

I like Pulev's confidence in this weigh-in and even before Joshua steps into and getting his weigh taken, Pulev's is already shouting at the background, Lol, he is the instigator in the fight. And Joshua pointing I would say that's disrespectful. Anyhow, I don't give Pulev a chance to win here, good that he is hyping and being confident, but as soon as Joshua hit that chin, boom, it's over. Joshua by KO.
Of course, he has to be confident and if he's not that will make him not to be eligible to fight Joshua but what I don't like during his interview is him claiming to be a better boxer than Joshua and the last time I checked such a claim are not done by words but holding the title. However, i know deep down he's not capable of winning.In the meantime, i met for Joshua to win by KO.
Surprisingly Fury believes that Pulev can beat Joshua in this article he really believes and he expects Pulev to beat Joshua and he is not the only one even Bob Arum believes that Pulev can beat Joshua, makes the fight very interesting after reading these comments from the top promoter and boxer.

Pulev can beat Joshua of course just as Joshua can also beat Pulev. They're both boxers of certain caliber. But the issue is whether Pulev's potential to beat Joshua will be translated into reality. Pulev is now approaching the end of his career while Joshua is still in his peak.
It seems Fury is encouraging Pulev so that when the time comes he will be an easier match for Fury to take than Anthony Joshua. Pulev is an easier opponent.

Well, they can make their own prediction but we know these people are clever, we don't know if what they are saying is what they think would happen in reality. I just don't understand, why would Fury not cheer on Joshua to win here when after this fight they will have a big fight that would help him make millions of dollars? It's just odd..
By the way, Arum could be wrong, what he said about Manny that he is too old to fight Thurman and Thurman would only hurt him did not happen, in fact, it was the opposite did happen, so don't believe on them.

I forsee Anthony Joshua knocking out Pulev before the end of the last round, I don't think it going to end in draw.
Good luck on your prediction, and if you put some bet on it, that would be good. However, on my part, I realize that Joshua did not KO Ruiz in their last fight though he dominated him, so I was thinking maybe it will be the same scenario in this fight, hence, Joshua winning by decision is likely to happen. Ruiz was a lot harder to knock out. The man is a lot younger than Pulev who is only months shy of hitting 40. And not only that, Joshua must have also been very careful with that rematch because he knew very well that Ruiz is very much capable of knocking him out too. That happened in their first bout. That was kind of traumatic since it was Joshua's very first defeat.
This time, Joshua is faced with an old man without much knock out power, having only less than 50% wins by KO. I think Joshua will be very confident in this fight. Add to it the fact that the fight will be done in his home country.
Pulev keep saying "tomorrow I show you" lol.. I understanding him, just trying to sell the fight but I hope to see his aggressiveness on their fight night so Joshua will not be careless and will just use his jab in the entire 12 rounds, he will still win anyway.
It was funny watching the video though because Joshua simply did not expect Pulev to behave that way. The fight tonight will be interesting because we just do not know what Pulev will do but we know Joshua can try to jab around 12 rounds if need be. I will still go for a Joshua win but Pulev will not make it easy.
Obviously he's not going to say that he thinks he might lose or that he's doubting himself. It's just mind-games that most fighters try do to either get in their opponents head or try sell the fight with drama, but if you actually listen to what they were saying in the close-up the media was blowing it out of proportion. They were actually being quite respectful and they were even fist-bumping (though rather aggressively I might ad): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0L1gu4ZcHeI
I'll be watching the fight tomorrow anyway especially since it's on at a reasonable time being held in the UK. I think AJ should win, but his loss to the chubby Mexican is making me cast doubt. Pulev has a similar record to AJ with only one loss so I wouldn't overlook a win from him.
Joshua was not expecting Pulev to be so aggressive at the weight-in.
Call it bravado or showmanship or anything else but Pulev was absolutely taunting Joshua because he wanted to make him nervous.
Obviously the smart thinking is that Joshua will win but Pulev looks like he means business and thinks he will win the fight tomorrow !

Give it to Anthony Joshua anyday, anytime, he so calm, calculated and has that confidence Pulev is just boasting and bragging, boxing is fought on a ring not by mere talking saying 'he has more energy and powerful' https://www.bbc.com/sport/boxing/55277896 although a bit older than Anthony and has more wins that can never be a yardstick in winning a boxing match, many pundits tipped Anthony as the potential winner its going to be an interesting match no doubt about that, I forsee Anthony Joshua knocking out Pulev before the end of the last round, I don't think it going to end in draw.
