I’m paying for it

If I’m honest Gerry, I’m confused looking in. Joshua seems overly confident. I think once he cops for a good one he will go back to type. Can’t see him reinventing himself since the Ruiz fight

As I see the fight panning out. Pulev knows what he has to do to win. I have been watching his workouts, lot of bobbing and slipping, he is going to try and get on the inside and let him have it for me and that’s how you beat Joshua. Poor defence, fights in straight lines with fast combinations

Joshua has to get the jab going and get him on the end of it, It’s that simple, if Pulev puts himself in range on the end of it and can’t deal with the jab then he loses, he eats the combinations

I will ask anybody a question though, what did they think to the second fight with Ruiz, I thought Joshua was awful myself but he managed to get the job done.

It’s heavyweight boxing so don't blink you could miss it

It’s one man or the other. I will go for Pulev within 8, that’s based on, he has him out of there in 4 or 5, or it drags on a bit. Over that I would expect Joshua

He’s a tough lad that Hall and a good learning exercise for McKenna. Connections wouldn’t have expected anything less than what he got. Seen Hall at the kings hall a couple of times and he’ll not go short of work for the likes of Stevie who see it as gaining good experience. Got to work a jab a lot more and can’t just try to finish the job early. His brother Aaron does indeed look really classy.

Steve mckenna looks very very amateur , his opponent matty hall has lost something like 57 out of 63 fights !!! His brother however looks to be very classy.

Pretty decent is Sam. This lad McKenna whose on now is a fantastic prospect along with his brother Stevie too.

Edit - Nathan was hoping to be out on the 19th December but unfortunately the world title fight he was down for on the undercard didn’t materialise. Hoping to now be out at end of jan early feb.

Anybody watch the Pulev vs.Joshua weigh in?

Pulev looks in great shape and is very confident, to be fair I can understand why

Needs to get inside like Ruiz and make it happen, if he sits outside on the end of Joshua’s jab and range he loses for me, otherwise he wins unless he walks onto one

yes I was surprised Pulev is 39 must of had a little paper round ? But has the power for an upset for sure

Maybe the PPV sales are not going well so bit of acting at the weigh in ? or am I being ?

Saw pulev win the super heavyweight at the euro championships in liverpool in 2008 ,He looked very capable but that was 12 years ago , he is now 39 i think ! Most fights on pay per view are £19.99 yet this one is £24.99 !!!! Again trying to hype joshua making him into something he aint as we always do in this country.

I’m tempted to pay for it now ffs

Complete rip off no doubt but I’m looking forward to it. No pressure on Pulev whatsoever. Joshua has got to win or this is another major blip on his record. Very dangerous fight for him. Pulev is the mandatory, should have happened in 2017 but he managed to duck and dive that one. Had to laugh at one of Hearns comments, subconsciously admitted they had cherry picked all his previous fights. No way out now. The real tests are coming!

Either way this result could set up some good fights for next year fight fans
