I got 10p on the US east coast. Must be difficult for you in England to enjoy the fight live at times.
Yeah you got to be a hard bastard :cool:Quote:

Show start, but I believe there's only one televised undercard fight. Realistically around 3 should be the main.
Spanks a lot.Quote:

Anyone expecting much competition in this fight. I have to admit I haven't seen that much of Jennings.
No, I'd be really surprised if there was. Jennings is pretty good, but doesn't have a big enough punch or the size to bother Wlad.
I am going to record it and watch tomorrow morning. It is highly unlikely that Jennings has enough to bother Wlad but you never know with the Heavyweights. Anything can happen. It's just that usually, at least these last few years, it usually doesn't.
I'll be up and awake, mainly cause I just finished a 2-10 shift and ain't started on the beers in the fridge yet!
If Klitschko doesn't KO him, I'll be quite surprised.
Have a 9pm start here scheduled to run 2 hrs? Maybe they're showing the Sadam Ali fight???
Jennings needs to sucker him off the ropes coming in. He is good on the ropes. Think he gets killed at range ring center
Wlad will win, but good and bad things can and do happen when the big guys get in the ring.Quote:

He don't have to be a big puncher to shatter Vlad..Quote:

Jennings is crappier than Vlad...that's his real problem.
Vlad is not one of the best heavies ever....not even close.Quote:

He's fighting guys that look like they were plucked from the seats 15 minutes before the fight.
Joe Louis had a bum of the month TOUR.
Vlad has a bum of the month CAREER;D..... and still managed to get himself blasted out more than once.
Tyson fought nothing but bums...but he wasn't SCARED OF THEM like Vlad is.
That should be carved in the side of a mountain.Quote:

Can't blame a guy for fighting in an era where he is significantly better than most fighters. Took an early loss, and honed his style so that he will not lose again unless he comes up against someone very very good. He hasn't ducked anyone of note, so I think he gets credit for beating the best of his era, with the exception of his brother, which is understandable.
^^^^^
He's not significantly better....just bigger.
Took and early loss....then another...and another.
The best of his era are atrocious,and he still fights them like he's scared to death.
Sounds familiar. What should he do..'Challenge himself and leave that empty dead division and go up in weight'??? He's probably my least favorite heavy champ in a very long time, but its obvious he is a much better fighter today than the one ironed out prior.Quote:

Lots of build up still to go. Looking at the videos, I'm starting to think that Shannon Briggs has been taking fight promotion tips from Charlie Z.
Damn right he should have, we will never know how well wladimir would have done in a 4 round toughman contest v prime butterbean.Quote:

On a more serious note, I am supporting Jennings as he seems like a decent sort and doesn't spoil. I doubt he will win though.
Never seen Sims before. Clever looking kid.
Charles Martin just KOed Tom Dallas.
Morning

Santana has gained 20 pounds since the weigh in :S
Wow! Santana comes in 20+ lbs over welter. I'm more convinced some guys stopped trying. Just figure they can jump either direction now ;D
