Re: Joshua V Pulev 12/12/2020
I thought Joshua looked pretty good after 12 months out of the ring.
Pulev was just about an identikit perfect opponent for him. Smaller, older, a decent but unexceptional technician, carrying very little power in his punches ... but brave and with an excellent chin.
Joshua clearly is, and always has been, and excellent trainer. He looked a lot more fluid than I've seen him before, though some of the exchanges were messy.We all know he can punch, and his signature blow is turning out to be the uppercut, which he uses very well. His chin held up OK, though Pulev didn't really land any properly forceful blows.
Great workout for Joshua, he could try stuff out, mix up his tactics, satisfy himself that his stamina and chin were OK, all while being confident that Pulev wasn't a big hitter.
All in all, a good night's work for him.
