No you haven't irked me. Maybe if you were stating facts......
For those of us who are completely nauseated by the Mayweather-Pacquiao posturing, we hate to see this happening in any other division. Challenger A wants to fight Champion B... he goes about the business of getting the fight. The onus is on him. If Haye REALLY wants to fight Wlad, he needs to shut his damn mouth about regional PPV splits (new one on me), and show the public he really wants to fight. And after all the shet he's talked, it would be a real downer if now he decides to back out due to PPV splits.
Smells like chickenshet to me.
:mad:
Greetings everyone,
I back Teddy's opinion 100% about the readiness of Povetkin. If anybodys knows, Teddy knows. No sense in dereailing a promising career this early.
The Sam Peter rematch IS exciting. Wlad had his hands very full the first fight. I think Wlad has gone on to improve greatly while Sam has dipped and rebounded and ultimately may be where he was during the first encounter. This time, however, I think Wlad deals with Sam more aggressively and with the proper caution. I think he makes Sam quit on his stool ala Vitali during his comeback fight.
David Haye. Ah the irony. What's perplexing is that David actually HAS the speed and crispness to bother Wlad. I dont think he would beat little brother, but I think it would be a good fight until late. I dont think David KNOWS he'll be beaten by Wlad, but he strongly SUSPECTS it, and knows it will be the end of the hype. I'd say no a little longer too if i was him. His window is closing fast enough already.
1. Challenger calls out Champion, Champion accepts the challenge and then Challenger refuses 1st fight due to back injury, refuses 2nd fight due to Sentanta bankruptcy, refuses fight vs Champion's brother due to "issues with contract" which was the same/similar contract as fights 1 and 2, Challenger wins TRINKET title but Champion digresses and offers 50/50 contract which the Challenger refuses yet again and Challenger decides on pot luck his management leaning heavily towards a local fighter with a mere tomato can to any other top tier heavyweight....tell me you side with the Challenger.
2. With attacks like that you show how weak your argument is. I suggest you refrain from that kind of posting for the sake of your reputation on this forum, I have tried my best to treat you with respect, won't you oblige me and do the same in return?
But you don't have an argument.
Seems to me that you are the one with no argument...or no solid one at that. You try to make me angry and distract me from the argument by calling me a "fat American" (which honestly is a remark that is beneath you).
OK, I'll ask you this, given that neither Alexander Povetkin nor the WBA title holder (for whatever reason, contracts, health, experience, etc) who should Wladimir Klitschko fight? Who is valid in the division, who is worthy of THE title shot?
I think you need to go back and re reead the conversation then. Especially the bt where I point out your contradicting oppinions on the IBF ranking.
David Haye. He's the only fight any one wants to see.... BUT while that fight isn't happening we shouldn't be trying to convince ourselves that peter or whoever are going to make for a good competetive fight.
i'm not exactly filling the forum with posts saying how great an opponant Audley is for Haye.
You think David Haye would rematch Monte Barrett ?
Peter is a fraud, already been dominated by Wlad and brings NOTHING to the table.
Another pointless fight in this joke division of boxing.
1. Not to downplay what Monte accomplished but David Tua hasn't exactly been burning it up in the division recently.
2. Like Sam Peter, Monte Barrett is also still better than Audley Harrison.
3. Hornfinger, Sam Peter has lost to a roided up James Toney, Vitali Klitschko, and Eddie Chambers whom had the perfect style to beat him...what's the shame in that? Audley Harrison lost to Michael Sprott (is that right or was it Matt Skelton, I get them confused), Dominick Guinn, and Martin Rogan...they haven't been all that great recently have they?
