What happened with Alexander Povetkin ?
Wladimir Klitschko
Rahman does not even deserve a flashlight shining on him in a big fight.
I cant find the backing for two former champs to fight,and they trot out Bloatschko and Rachdone for at least 20 times the guarantee?
Ladies and gentleman,whats wrong with the sport in a nutshell is open for all to see, this is why the sport is on a respirator.
A fight somebody might care about watching,cant get money to back it,a fight nobody with anything to do on,a Saturday night is going to watch,short of having a heart attack with the TV left on, will.
Rahman has done nothing to merit a shot at Wlad whatsoever. I know its late notice and everything, but there are worthier opponents than an old Rahman who has been on a diet of nothing but journeymen prior to getting embarrassed by Toney.
Rahman has good reach and power though upset anyone?
I dont see an upset but remember Vitali was scared of fighting Rahman . Wvlad islikley to be petrified of his power and it will effect his performance.
Wvlad could go in, use his javb set up the right hand and knock him out early like Lewis did but instead I think we will see Wvlad being overly cautious and dragging this one out . It might even go 12 , depends how game Rahman is cuz in his last fight it didnt appear like he had much fire left .
Povetkin got injured so they needed to find a replacement. Is Rahman OFFICIAL?
Anyway. I think this fight is going to be a typical Wlad fight. Jab, Jab, Jab for a couple of rounds, a straight right here and there, Rahman out round 5
I can't believe people can criticise David Haye for taking on Monte Barret for only his 2nd heavyweight bout. Yet the ultimate disgrace to the sport Dr Slaphammer takes on the bum that is, a shot Hasim Rahman. What a fukking joke. Just like Slap himself is a joke.
#1 Povetkin hurt himself in training
#2 No replacement opponent has been officially named
#3 Vitali was not scared of fighting Rahman he was injured
#4 Game you're a giant douchebag
#5 Wlad has already fought and destroyed Jameel McCline
#6 Finding a capable fighter willing to take the challenge of Wlad shouldn't be hard but there are big names who are already scheduled to fight.
....and just on the side, I thought Maskaev was trying to get the fight.
Kind of a cruel irony.Rahman quit's on his stool vs.Toney after getting stunned and cut...........yes,that was a no-mas,and he gets a Title fight next up ??
James Toney is fighting Wlad's last KO victim Tony Thompson on the Versus network his next.
I think the heavyweight division is the weakest of all time and the Klitschkos are among the weakest fighters ever to call themselves champions the heavyweight division is so boring now it needs killers in it again like tyson listion dempsey.
In twenty years no one will be talking about Klitschko Rahman as one of the graet heavyweigh battles of all time more like two idiots one who is a mindless puncher and another who is afraid to get hit after he got put down, pathetic Boxing needs Killers who come to fight not this tip tap crap that belongs in the ameuters
Lefty, Wlad wants to fight...the guy he was scheduled to fight is hurt and too hurt to fight in a reasonable ammount of time. So it's a joke that Wlad wants to actually stay busy and fight someone??? Hasim Rahman (for some reason) is #4 rated in the IBF therefore giving Wlad the chance to defend a title and maybe try and get a better fight next time.
Wlad can't FORCE Povetkin to be healthy...and with as much shit as Alex has talked people had better be angry at him and not Wlad.
