I'm going to save this post, anything can happen in a heavyweight fight and Wlad will lose some day.
Half the people watching will be tuned in to see Wlad get beat or knocked on his ass at least.
Pfffft the fight is happening in Mannheim, there will probably be 40,000 people at the fight itself and a few million watching on TV (in Germany alone). The fight vs Mormeck drew in circa 35,000 fans. Is he "hyping the fight"...not especially, he's just being a professional. What do you want him to say? Pianetta sucks & shouldn't get a shot?....That would be a bit counterintuative don't you think?


The truth.

Besides, boxers downplay each other all the time. If there was ever a case for dismissing an opponent, it's this one.
