Kubrat Pulev arrived home after the world title clash with Anthony Joshua. The Bulgarian was received at the Sofia airport accompanied by a bagpipe, and a small boy handed him a letter and the Bulgarian flag. Pulev did not hide his enthusiasm at the great interest and shared his analysis of the battle.
“I get such a big welcome, it’s like I’m a winner … A very warm welcome, quite warm. I did not expect it. In the end, it is a loss and I did not expect such a welcome, but it is important because it is normal to have a World title game I’m angry because I didn’t win because I say I want to win for the people and that’s really true.
Perhaps the preparation got in the way, it wasn’t up to the task. I don’t comment and I don’t want to justify myself, I don’t like it. There is a saying: “A Tarikat man does not scream.” The loss is mine, it’s a sport, just a sport.
If he had been better prepared, he would have won. There were many things I could do, you saw how scared he was of me, at the press conference and at the game. There were serious concerns, perhaps not fear of the game, so to speak. They were afraid of boxing itself, of the game itself. “
“I am not going to make excuses, we win, we lose, there is a bad chance in sport. Let’s rest, let’s go home, eat a good fish. Purely boxing if there was an option to give me revenge, it would be very interesting. It is unlikely, but not is excluded.
Pulev: Joshua, if you are a man, give me revenge!
“I’m angry that I didn’t hit him.”
Boxers as much as we want, but otherwise it will hardly happen with this rematch. I’ll definitely give up one day, but it’s not close. I fall and get up, no problem, a strong Bulgarian head. As I move, I wait.
My behavior on the scale was unique, great. I went there, to his house, with his audience.
It’s silly they ran out of tickets in a minute, we know how things work. Bulgarian journalists were not allowed, I fought for it to the end. You heard the words he said to me, I repeated “respect”.
What he had to say, I wonder about the people. I’m sorry that our nation isn’t such a boxer, but these things are completely normal in martial arts. Whoever did not attend, does not know, criticizes people who do not know. I didn’t say a single bad word, he touched me, I said: “Don’t touch me.” He uses a word that I wouldn’t say if I were a champion and someone came to me. But I accept that I am guilty, I like to be guilty, I take all the blame.
Even if I fall, get up, hit myself and carry on, I won’t despair, I don’t have those things, ”said Kubrat Pulev.
