Wlad Klitschko vs Hasim Rahman

[Tysonbruno]

I keep getting this feeling Rahman is going to pull off a upset all over again he has the reach and power to cause Wlad some problems.

Hasim Rahman was a decent fighter with a good punch, now he's garbage fighter with a good punch. I can't see an upset here at all, your thinking too much about Lennox Lewis vs Hasim Rahman 1 and letting it cloud your judgement.

I think Wlad will constantly prob Rahman with that jab and slam right hands into Rahman's face for as long as he can take it. This will be a totally different Wlad then his last 2 fights. The people have been talking and I think Wlad is a little pissed he isn't getting the respect he deserves. Wlad KO in 5.

No im not im thinking Wlad fights to safety first and has a weak jaw and this will catch up with him and the David Haye fight around the corner like so many other big Heavyweight fights in the past only to get scrapped because somebody burts the bubble.

And at 13/2 for Rahman to win got to be worth a bet

Bookies love that attitude.

I WOULD be concerned if Rahman had the sneaky ability to KO people like Corrie Sanders did. This does seem like a fight that Wlad wouldn't worry too much about but honestly Hasim Rahman has been so piss poor the past couple fights he has had that I am not worried.


Wladimir is fighting at his best and barring Rahman having an iron chin or just swinging like a mad man from the get go we're going to see a beat down.


Watch Rahman vs Maskaev I & II, it's all you have to see. Sure Rahman has reach but he is too lazy in the ring and doesn't counter well at all AND Manny Steward is in Wlad's corner and I'll be damned if Manny is letting Wlad sleep on Rahman!

If you're going to bet on this fight you might as well bet on Rahman because you'd have to bet so much on Wlad to make money it's not even worth it.

Have you seen Hasim Rahman's last few fights ? he was a disgrace he doesn't deserve a title shot and this fight is a farce.

But surely that would at least mean the upset is possible if the punch is still there & as its always the last thing a boxer loses it should still be there, & altho Rahman is not the fighter of old the punch he carries today is the same one he bombed our Lennox out with ...

I suppose the point Im making is if a bomb lands from a heavy weight it causes serious problems ...

upsets even

Weights are in...


Wladimir 244

Rahman 253


....it doesn't seem like a smart move for hasim to come in so heavy.

He has lost the fight, too heavy and ill disciplined to get in shape. Deserves to get KTFO for that.
