    Default Povetkin must face...Rahman?!

    I just read that he has 120 days to face Rahman who is his mandatory The last time I saw Rahman he was on a reality tv show and looked to be around 300 + lbs. The man is shot to bits. This has to be a joke, no way this happens. Apparently he took step aside money so Huck could have a go.

    Hopefully he'll take step aside money again and a rightful rematch happens. Does Pov vacate (or get stripped) and Huck vs Rahman happen? Is there anyone left alive that still thinks the WBA has an ounce of legitimacy having Rahman ranked #1.

    Yeah thats absurd, I didn't think Rahman had ebven fought since he played tomato can for Wlad at least a couple years ago Must be that Rahman is owed a favour by the WBA one way or another.

    >Rahman’s #1 WBA rating is a topic of some controversy as the 39-year-old former WBC champion hasn’t faced a world rated opponent since losing to Wladimir Klitschko in 2008.

    All my hate

    Rahman pisses me off. He starts getting hammered against Toney and waltzes to a title shot and now fights a bunch of bums and gets another shot. Utter nonsense.

    Isn't amazing how many fights Rahman has got off the back of 1 punch! 11 Years on and he is still being talked up for big fights.

    This only confirms how utterly worthless the "title" is that he's getting a shot at. Even accepting the absurdity of having more than one title in a single division, any sensible system would have required Povetkin to fight one of the Klitchkos years ago in order to hang on to that belt. There's obviously not a single person in the world who thinks Povetkin is even possibly the best heavyweight in the world.

    Hate all you want but Rahman vs Povetkin is a competitive fight. Povetkin just isn't a top notch fighter.

    Why can't James Toney get a shot? He has been giving career worst performances. Surely he is due a shot.

    So Rahman is number 1 contender since 2008 defeat and is even getting step a side money. He must be laughing all the way to the bank. His team must be in with the WBA to get this amount of support to stay number 1 contender. Makes a mockery of the body and the sport.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Even Holyfield is more qualified for this title shot.

    Rahman? I thought he was retired or something not number 1 contender. The heavyweight division has become a real joke.
