The British media collected the opinions of some of the main names, both from the Island and from world boxing, about the upcoming fight between Kubrat Pulev and Anthony Joshua. According to the poll, three of them support the world champion, while two speak in favor of the Cobras. WBC champion Tyson Fury, belt contender Dillian White, as well as former world champions David Haye, Chris Eubank Sr. and Joseph Parker, took a position in Saturday’s game.
Tyson Fury: If Ruiz beats him, so can Kubrat
“Each of them can win because he’s a heavyweight, and they’re both pretty big, healthy men. But if Andy Ruiz can knock Joshua out, then Pulev certainly has that ability. Kubrat is a lot bigger and I guess he hits more. stronger than Ruiz, so I would bet on him. “
Dillian White: easy game for Joshua
“You know what? It will be an easy game for Joshua. He went through two difficult games in a row, more emotionally than physically. So the meeting with Pulev is pretty well chosen in terms of management. Pulev is an adult.” and it was never great, even when it was at its peak, and Joshua will be happy to take out his mandatory opponents, so it’s going to be a match for him, no matter how busy he is.
David Hay: AJ will clear the floor with that
“I definitely think it will be a good match for AJ. A great Eastern European who is tall, stands up and has only lost once to Klitschko. And in that match with Vladimir he started very well. He has the power to create some problems. “. AJ will have to be in top shape to deal with Pulev because he’s tough, but if Joshua is in the shape he claims to be, then I hope he clears the floor with Pulev. he’s a much better boxer than him. “
Chris Yubank Sr .: I would bet on Pulev
“There are some very important elements before this match. First of all, it is important to consider how each of them coped with the pandemic and managed to overcome obstacles along with their training regimen. The stakes are high and the tension is quite great. , but here that the coronavirus added an extra to everything, if everything went well, AJ has greater boxing intelligence, as he already demonstrated against Andy Ruiz Jr. in the rematch between the two, so I did not expect him to win because I thought he would pitch for a knockout, but he denied it. Instead, he used his intellect and got his belts back. Given that things went well in terms of preparation, AJ is definitely one of the favorites. But since nothing is normal in recent months, I have suspected that Pulev can win this match. If I were a gambler, which I am not, then I would put my money in his favor. “
Joseph Parker: Anthony will be too fast
“I know that Pulev will be very well prepared for this fight, because he has been waiting for this fight for a long time. But in the rematch with Ruiz we saw a different Joshua, a purely boxing version of him. I think he will be too fast and he has already acquired enough. experience to win this match. “
