He's shot to shit. Pulev is good fundementally, good technical boxer. Kind of fighter AJ should have been in with by now.

I think that might be it a brilliant fight to end the night

Chisora could be a decent boxer but mentally he hasn't got the boxing brain or application.

Last night was a big opportunity against a mid level fighter but his only tactic was to go to the body and then just try that ridiculous overhand right!!

The guy could have gone for a cig and then come back and dodged it.

It was like a pissed up brawl kind of punch.

Hearn can't sell Chisora after that last night. The fans wouldn't accept it.

Chisora looked in the best shape Ive seen him in for a long time and had a feeling he would do more than what he did, he's a domestic level fighter and should be used for up and coming fighters, Joshua should have been fighting him this time last year to aid his progression.

Pulev looks like he would be a "boxing" test for Joshua, someone that isnt wide open and can take punishment, would probably take AJ as far into a fight as he has been yet.

As for Anthony Crolla, what a boxing performance that was, movement, footwork and defense spot on for 3/4 rounds and when Barosso tired, he was measured and clinical. Looks like he genuinely loves what he does, doesnt talk a lot during build ups and nobody has a bad word to say about him. Coming back from 4 defeats and a life threatening injury to win and defend a world title, deserves far more coverage than he gets. Joe Gallagher should take great credit aswell, Crolla has taken the king of Manchester title away from stablemate Quigg.

He will be pushed onto Hearns PPV cards now unfortunately.

Agree with alll your points. (Apart from Joe Gallagher one, average trainer who's got one world level win).

PPV shouldn't be used unless it's a super fight and the normal sky rights fees can't cover the purses so they need the extra revenue. Anything half decent now is put on PPV and it's not fair when we are already shelling out for normal sky.

I think Matchroom have an agreement with sky in their contract that they will put a certain amount of PPV's per year, I think it is 6 or 8 maybe, which is why fights such as Brook Gavin, Bellew Cleverly and almost every AJ fight in recent memory top "box office" cards.

Box office should mean box office, 2 box office fighters in a 50:50/60:40 fight.

Well agree to disagree on Gallagher, I like what he is doing, growing an improving stable of fighters, Quigg, Crolla, Liam Smith, Callum Smith destined for big things, not saying he is a world class trainer for one moment but youd have to say its the most successful gym in the country since Brendon Ingles Wincobank days

Dominic Ingle and Rob McCracken are by far and away the best trainers in the country.

Hearn needs to start thinking about the hardcore fans a bit more. Your casual fan won't mind Martin Murray bashing up a welterweight when Murray is a SMW but to people that follow boxing it's a bit insulting and to be honest, very very dangerous. His stable gets bigger yet the quality of his normal Saturday night shows get lower and lower.
