A clip from one explicit interview has now resurfaced during which Fury slammed Pulev over his defeat to Wladimir Klitschko.
Pulev was knocked out by the Ukrainian in 2014. A yr later, it was Fury’s flip to face him.
Within the build-up, the Brit tore aside each single world title defence on Klitschko’s file.
He turned up on the first press convention in Dusseldorf and shocked German media along with his lack of respect for the champion or his former challengers.

Concerning Pulev, Fury advised Boxing Information again in 2015: “Kubrat Pulev, one other man, 6ft 4ins from Bulgaria with no cash and nothing.
“Comes right into a heavyweight title struggle and stands within the ring like that there [raises his hands in an awkward stance].
“Some large stiff silly European fighter.
“And stood in entrance of a person who can knock a wall down.
“Bum.”
