Wlad was wobbled in the first round by a jab, he was hit more than normal because the ref did not allow too much holding. Wilder fight would be very interesting. Wlad is after Joe Louis record!!!!

Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
This was a fun fight tho and I think its cause pulev went in there and actually was going to try and win despite knowing he'll get knocked out he didn't let wlad just peper him to death for ten rounds and when wlad is actually made to fight he can look dam good
Wlad didn't seem to give Pulev any respect but wow, what a left hook eh?
Wladimir wasn't sharp tonight but he was ready to fuck Pulev up

I think Briggs would put up a much better fight. Pulev was a lumbering unskilled oaf. And what he did throw was telegraphed a week in advance.The fact that he was the number 1 challenger speaks volumes to the depth of misery this division is in.

well said! i agree pulev had heart, but no skills. whats this pulev no throwing punches unless u are in a clinch? kinda lame. those short punches dont do shit. but props to wlad for looking like he actually wanted to hurt someone....FINALLY!! and yes, id rather watch briggs/wlad too.

do you really think briggs is going to do anything but run out of energyand shell up after the first 2 minutes of the fight ?..... it would be an awful fight...
Array
briggs would do no worse than pulev, haye, povetkin or any of the other clowns he's been fighting as of late. after seeing wlad FINALLY try to hurt someone, i have my doubts about briggs winning, but id still like to see it happen. if anyone can crack that chin again, its briggs, wilder or stiverne.

Pulev lost before he entered the ring.
His attitude on the way up to the fight screamed "I don't know what to do but get knocked out for lot of money".
He didn't care at all, he knew he was getting KO'd, avoiding the press conferences and shit.
You say tomato,
‘n I say …… it correctly.

Yes I do. In fact I think he's put up a much better showing. It was like they grabbed some big tough guy out of the Bulgarian army and told him to show up for a fight. Good for Wlad I suppose but lets get real here. That was a mess. I have never seen such terrible mobility by someone who was touted to be this threat. I'm surprised he can walk down a street w/o walking into street signs on a regular basis. Zero head movement. Terrible punching technique. And slow.....my lord man.

I don't know briggs last few fights against competent opposition have been pretty poor from him, vitali just pounded away on him all night and his fights v the 2 soviets were also pretty poor, although he did get a lovely last round ko. Briggs has only got older since then, I don't think it would be good to watch at all..
Was this fight on hbo afterall ?
