Klitschko's Sparring Partner: Leapai Can Win By KO - Boxing News

Sherman williams basically callin him a bitch..

[DannyV297]

Wlad will retire soon

[ninjaspy3]

They're trying to Hype this huh?


I just rewatched Leapai's "win" over Boytsov and I thought to myself "Wow, this guy is going to fight Wladimir?" Depressing.


I still don't fully understand why Boytsov was rated high enough to be in the running to fight Wlad anyway. And then, how the heck a fight with Leapai would have made him any more deserving.

[TigerFan]

I wouldn't be surprised if he was paid to say this

As ninjaspy3 said above...probably just hype.

[palmerq]

well someone isnt getting invited to spar with wladimir again :S


also i do wonder if this is the work of jacksonmmman :S cant have too many threads about this fight after all

[TitoFan]

Being the cynical sort that I am...

I'd say either Williams is laying the groundwork for a potential $$$$ shot at Wlad (hell.... if Leapai gets his, why not??)...... or it's all part of an elaborate and brilliant scheme by Wlad's people (paying Williams some good bucks) to hype what is in effect an "unhypable" fight.

Either way.... I'm not taking the bait. Get ready for another foul-filled snoozefest.

[El Kabong]

Probably something to get Wlad motivated because this fight is just a mandatory snoozer.

[palmerq]

Well to be fair this fight is getting a fair amount of hype in australia(according to jacksonman) and wladimir isn't really going to gain a new audience watching his fights unless it is v haye or if some american guy magically becomes a big star ... and after watching the lepai boystov fight i think lepai will just come right at him and will get jabbed and hooked to a mid round tko, it'll probably be better to watch than most of wladimirs fights :S maybe he can leave a good impression of the pacific islanders ...

Klitschko's Sparring Partner: Leapai Can Win By KO - Boxing News

Sherman williams basically callin him a bitch..

Wlad's sparring partner doing what he's told.
Everyone is laughing their ass off at Wlad's attempts at promoting his fight so they brought in the ubiquitous disgruntled sparring partner to take up the slack.

Or maybe we're be prepped for the passing of the torch. LOL

What do you think?

[Max Power]

Yeah I'm Australian and it's true there is a fair bit of hype for Leapai in fact.

Actually the news over here did a very good job because quite a few people think that Leapai is going to knock Klitschko out.

They're the people who don't really follow boxing though, they just heard that an Aussie is fighting for the title, and then swallowed the hype that Leapai is a hard puncher and is in for the fight of his life.

[Spicoli]

Been there for 10 camps and now goes rouge? Has he found other work yet?

[Master]

I like the WK videos. Saw the one they made against Povetkin and it is really catchy. Their entrances are cool too.

Heavyweight Sherman “Tank” Williams has been kicked out of the training camp of heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko. According to Williams, Klitschko’s trainers had to intervene to prevent the champion from being punished by Williams’ bodywork during sparring. “Every shot I’ve hit him with was clean body shots,” Williams told AAP. “I’ve hit him with vicious liver shots and he’s bawling, claiming he’s getting hit on his nuts. At the moment, I think he’s ready to be beaten. He’s ready to be knocked out. If Alex [Leapai] is prepared physically and he’s mentally and spiritually together, the Aussies can have a new champion come next week.”

In other “Tank” news, Williams has pulled out of his bout with unbeaten New Zealand prospect Joseph Parker (7-0, 6 KOs), which was to be the co-feature on the Klitschko-Leapai undercard this Saturday in Oberhausen, Germany. The Parker camp isn’t happy about the late scratch considering all the trash talking Williams did in the build-up, but they have now lined up Marcelo Nascimento (17-5, 15 KOs) as a replacement.

Wlad clears up Williams' claim. " Of course I'm a softie and a whiner, didn't you know that already "?

Says Wlad. Lol. I like how Wlad is handling himself these days. Its like he has been dominating for so long that small shit like this don't even bother him anymore.

Williams is a bitter bum.
