fIRST OFF ı CANNOT F(%/&İNG BELIEVE rAHMAN IS STILL FIGHTING. (WHOOPS CAPS LOCK)

Amazing. Just shows how shabby thıngs are ın that dıvısıon as these guys jump up and dust themselves off thınkıng they have a decent chance to do somethıng agaın agaınst Father Tıme. I'll route for Hasım, I met hım ın Newark, NJ back ın 1999, he ıs a really nıce guy, got hıs autograph and he even "punched" me wıth a jokıng "kıdney shot" he saıd as he dıd ıt and we both laughed pretty hard. İ wıll be routıng for Hasım.

.....and it's root, route is something a bus takes

You cheeky bastard.

[Majesty]

Shows the desperation of heavyweight boxing

[Mars_ax]

Rahman must be shot by now, how does he keep getting these chances. He can't win on Saturday?

I could be wrong Master, but I believe Don King is still Rahman's promoter.

thanks Lyle and I guess you have taken plenty then.

Shows the desperation of heavyweight boxing

....really I think it shows more about Povetkin & who he's willing to fight rather than anything about the heavyweight division.

As opposed to mid 40's foreman fighting in the 90's....

Or 50 yr old moore in the 60's...

I don't think a late 30's former champ is anything new in boxing do u? A 100% fit multiple gold medallist like Povetkin would have beaten any version of rahman just like ruiz, holy and maskaev did! Sorry. Rahman was turned into the elephant man by a 40 yr old holy (byrd and donald schooled holy!) Povetkin is better than maskaev ever was! Povetkin is better than rahman at any age! Training issues are povetkins main problem, his ability is clear!

Isn't it about time america produced a HW champ now it's been nearly 2 decades U do a lot of bitching but about the division yet seem incapable of producing someone to rectify it! Oh wait NFL......What next? Transexual judo?

Feed seth mitchell to sasha next....

Seth Mitchell, Cris Arreola, Deontay Wilder, Joe Hanks....those guys would blast Povetkin out of the ring! Hell Eddie Chambers fought the guy tooth & nail without throwing many punches and you're talking shit like this?!?!?! Get the fuck outta here with that garbage




I guess what I'm trying to say is....Povetkin needs to stop being such a massive pussy and fight Wladimir. and by "fight" I mean get his ass kicked. Povetkin talked a big game about 4 years ago, showing up to Klitschko press conferences and shit, but what happened? Where did that desire to fight Wlad go I think it must have faded out about the time when Wlad started looking unbeatable

[ruthless rocco]

rahman will ko povetkin and that should be about the end of both their careers.

I would still fancy a 60 year old Archie Moore to kick Povetkins arse, he is terrible.
