Off topic....Lyle have you seen the Klitschko documentary yet?

I got a few links if you or anybody else is interested. No download required.
So by that are we saying that Thompson has a snowballs chance in hell? I mean if the strip him thats just another example of alphabet soup politricks. I'll go out on a limb and say the wouldn't strip Wlad if he didn't take it on the grounds that he's been there-done that. It tastes bad coming off that Mormeck farce.

Hasim Rahman is once again being called a mandatory heavyweight challenger
