Lol, what is this

did you see him whip chris arreola?

I get the impression that he is a real tough guy and has serious power but that ability to succeed at the top isn't there yet.

From what iv seen of him he's like a heavy version of Berto and that seems like an easy comparison because they are both Haitian but he has fast heavy hands but is too easy to hit and not very mobile.

Too many heavyweights like this now. Not being taught how to move, use the ring, head movement, defence etc. just being shown how to punch.

That's still one up on Fury:D

He's from Montreal where I come from, he's good but not sure that he's real great. He deserves the belt based on the fact that Vitali has postponed it for the 4th time and his manager Camille Estepan said that if the alphabetical title plays by its rules, they should give him the belt like they did in the past for Lewis, Peter and Norton who were in similar situation: Estephan exige la ceinture | RDS.ca

Based on that, he does deserve the belt but I am not sure he has the tools to keep it once it'll be time to fight against one of the Ukrenian giants or a guy with skills like Solis.

Bermane is a pure counter puncher...meaning at times he's very lazy in the ring, he can't lead, and he'll allow you to hit him every so often. An in shape Vitali would just toy with Bermane, but Vitali is older and these postponements don't bode well for the continuation of his career. At this point if Vitali can't get healthy I would just assume have Stiverne vs Abdusalamov for the WBC title and then have the winner fight Wladimir to unify.

This^^


He's a cure for insomnia.

I like Stiverne but he will struggle against the good bigger heavyweights. So I don't give him much of a chance against the Klits. I actually think Haye and Fury would both beat him too and they would be fights I would love to see. He definitely is not going to be the ext person to dominate the division

See I think vs Fury especially Stiverne would win because Fury fights like a dope and he'd come straight forward winging his punches all willy nilly and BWare would smash him in the face like he did Arreola and Fury wouldn't get back up.

Stiverne will do best vs someone who will put the pedal to the metal and pressure him because he'll HAVE to fight back.

If you're even the slightest bit cagey you'll outbox him, hell Ray Austin was outboxing him before he got blasted

Depending on how hard Fury really hits (because I'm just not sure, comparable to Valuev? :-X), I would imagine that St. Iverne (it's how I pronounce it in my head :mad:) would work of the jab quite nicely with over hands etc.

It should read Tyson Fury is the next undisputed heavyweight champ.

last laughs are best
