Before that it was a win over Mormeck, and the memorable "Toe-gate" circus against Haye.
Haven't we heavyweight boxing fans suffered long enough??
are you suggesting he shouldn't take on the mandatory challengers and lose the belts ?
I dont think that would be the best idea, whilst there is not super challenger or super hyped challenger like haye, then all wladimir has is the belts, these non mandatory fighters people say he should fight really haven't done anything to justify a title shot either.. I think Wladimir is doing it right just now, keep taking on the mandatories untill he has a chance to get the wbc belt .
At least one problem seems to be the rules that enable these guys as mandatory fights. Most of these fights no one really wanted to see. I did want to see the Haye fight and Povetkin one, but not the others.
If we can't blame Wlad, then let's blame the system. But someone needs to be blamed for the
crap opponents Wlad is fattening his record with. And while we're throwing blame around, Wlad isn't completely blameless. Povetkin was a good, bonafide,
willing opponent, until Wlad neutralized him with his cowardly mauling, wrestling, cheating tactics. If I want to watch WWF, I'll change the channel.
