I think Fury would beat Pulev widely on points.

Pulev isn't 6ft and has a decent amount of power, meaning it's unlikely to take place.

I think it's 50-50

That would be an interesting match.
If Pulev is ever the same after being concussed by Wlad, I believe he would beat Fury by late round TKO.

Actually Pulev is 6ft 4 inches tall.
He's not exactly small.

I might have misunderstood what you were saying though.

Thompson won the first half of the fight against Pulev before getting tired in the second half.

Fury would beat Pulev easily.

I think that was lillywhite's point.

Tyson Fury's last 10 opponents:

Dereck Chisora - 6′ 1½″
Joey Abell - 6′ 4″
Steve Cunningham - 6′ 3″
Kevin Johnson - 6′ 3″
Vinny Maddalone - 6′ 2″
Martin Rogan - 6′ 3″
Neven Pajkic - 6′ 3″
Nicolai Firtha - 6′ 6″
Dereck Chisora - 6′ 1½″
Marcelo Luiz Nascimento - 6′ 5″

Quit hating.

Based on the fact that I think Fury is mildly better than Thompson and a good bit better than Ustinov, I have Fury winning by decision roughly 8-4 or 7-5.

I agree.

Don't see Pulev and his rabbit punching syndrome winning that fight no how no way.

Tyson is one of my favourite heavyweights, I'm a fan, I enjoy watching him fight.

His handlers won't let him face a dangerous fighter unless it's for big money or for a title shot. Pulev - Fury wouldn't earn big money so it won't happen unless it's for a world title.

All that list does is prove my point. Not one banger on there and those that have any sort of size are complete knock over jobs.

It's clear as day that Furys handlers, not himself, have kept him away from punchers. The only reason the Haye fight was signed is because it was going to make him a lot of money. It's a shame they have taken this route with Fury as I, along with many others I suspect, would love to see him in with a dangerous fighter.

What punchers? What dangerous fighters? The division is not full of killers that Fury has been skillfully steered clear of.

He has one of the strongest records in the division, which is why he is generally considered to be the No. 1 or No. 2 ranked heavyweight contender.

Pure hater.

Whatever happened to Fury vs Ustinov? Is that when Fury's uncle got sick? I wouldn't mind seeing that fight.

Pulev would knock him out.

I'd watch it but I believe Ustinov poses no challenge at all.

Pulev sucks..................not only did he get his ass kicked last time out......he struggled big time against Travis Walker. Walker gets ko'd every time he steps up except when he fought Pulev. Pulev would get his ass beat against Fury also.

Fury has struggled against some pretty shitty fighters along the way aswell though.

A statement that can be made about virtually every fighter ever.

Fury for me if he uses the jab like he did last time out.

Perhaps his handlers deemed Price and Pulev as dangerous fighters when they 'went in a different direction' instead of fighting them when they should have? Price has undoubted power, that's why they decided to fight a semi-retired taxi driver who was done as a fighter instead.

If Fury had fought Pulev when it was called for, and beaten him, then he would have already fought Wlad. Instead we still have plenty of questions about him left to answer.

What was Tysons talk of Ustinov being brought in to stitch him up too? That was a little strange. He seemed bothered that Ustinov seemed in half decent shape and ready to fight.

As the resident Fury pipe smoker, who do you think he should fight next? I don't want to see him go in against Wlad undercooked and think a couple of fights against the likes of Arreola and Pulev would ne good for his development as a fighter and give him the best chance against Wlad if it ever gets made.

I thin that this would be a pretty exciting matchup. I could see Pulev catching Fury with a clean shot, then Fury's red mist descends and it turns in to a brawl.

He decided to fight Haye instead, who is much better than Pulev, in a fight everyone wanted to see.

It is ridiculous that people have a go at Fury for that. The logic of a hater.

He was in the best shape of his career with no fight lined up. He was right to be suspicious.

Ustinov.

Pulev lost 4 rounds against Thompson. Haye is better.

Ustinov.

Pulev was ordered a little time before any mention of a Haye fight. Haye fits their bill, no risk unless it's for enough money to retire on, unless it's a title fight. Why didn't the Price fight take place?

He was right to be suspicious that Ustinov was in shape? If any fight is made between them should Ustinov sign a promise not to train too hard or take it too seriously?

Fury frustrates me. You are blinded by your love for him.
