Pulev injured?

[afcmarshall]

Rumours on twitter hes about to pull out of the fight

[SAPFO]

Whyte 2 it is then

[Boxerbeetle]

Never fear, Vitali will step up...

[gilgamesh]

Didn't Pulev pull out of another big fight not too terribly long ago? Not as big as this one, but it was one of his bigger ones if I can recall. The opponent doesn't spring to mind.

If so though I doubt he'll get too many more opportunities. What's the point of booking a guy that never goes through with the fight?

[SaadOffTheDeck]

This is clearly the work of Wilder.

[wesshaw1985]

any source on this?

Wilder still hasn't confimed his fight with Stiverne but surely 2/3 weeks notice isn't enough for a fight of that magnitude...

WBN Note: A Bulgarian journalist has since confirmed Pulev's injury on social media.

[TheGingerBomber]

Disaster like. But it could be averted if somebody steps in. Ahem....Dillian...

[jamamb]

saves pulev the concussion then

[littlepug]

Christ what a dire state the heavyweight division is in, barring Joshua v Wilder I cant think of a single matchup to get excited about, the division is a sinking ship

[Mimmy]

Get joe Joyce warmed up.

F&!@*s sake!

I am meant to be taking my daughter to the fight for her 21st and combining it with seeing my other daughter who is at Bath Spa uni, only been there a month and 200 miles away and we all wanted to see each other. F**k, s**t and b***s. Even got ringside tickets, behind the VIP's and next to AJ entrance route

[stujones]

When's Povetkin scheduled to fight?

No way this show is getting cancelled when Edward has so much money for a replacement. They'll make Takam a mega offer, plan B will Dillian. Not like for like replacements but the show must go on.

Damn guy killed JFK and had Stalin and Hitler take over the USSR and Germany.

Damn, I'm late for my Pro Wilder rally. In the US we have to go to these as you know.

Stiverne's management still need to speak to Don King about the deal

[wesshaw1985]

still nothing official from the Eddie or the camp. Might be a bogus report...

[brian13]

If its true, Eddie could very well offer Jarrell Miller the fight as he is on his New York show.

[ThereByTheGrace]

The ppv is ruined. What goes around comes around. Fell bad for pulev his retirement fund is gone now if he cant make the fight

[wesshaw1985]

If its true, Eddie could very well offer Jarrell Miller the fight as he is on his New York show.

not sure Eddie will pull his first US show apart.
Whyte will step in...

[Tangerine]

He's primed and ready,the man smack bang in form...



Bars..

[jamamb]

would like to see aj destroy whyte to elminate any of the lingering 'well he landed one good punch!'

[the_doctor]

If he is injured, the sensible strategy would be to get Takam over. I can't see Hearn making Joshua/Whyte at only 12 days notice, would benefit from a longer build up.

I just text my daughter basically that, that they are all about to earn far too much money and cannot lose out on that but I am not keen on a crappy replacement and thought Pulev would put up a semi decent fight. It will be bloody Whyte who is hugely overrated
