So complain all you like but this is a MANDATORY fight.


As for Pianeta he was decent enough he just was not in Wlad's league.....which describes 99.9% of the heavyweight division.

Didn't realize Leapai was a mandatory... but fair enough.

Still.... it doesn't excuse Wlad for fighting Pianeta. Pianeta was shit..... everybody had said he was shit..... and he promptly proved everyone right. It was a pre-announced massacre. Yeah..... the rest of the division isn't much better. But Wlad could be making a much better case for his legacy by fighting nothing but the best (or least worse) the division has to offer. Unfortunately we're years away from knowing whether the Wilders and the Furys could conceivably give Wlad a run for his money. But there's other battle-tested guys out there that deserve a shot. (Well..... except Haye of course. He already got his shot and blew it).

Wlad should know that after that poor excuse of a heavyweight fight against Povetkin..... he needs to give his public something to cheer and get excited about. So let's get this mandatory the hell over with and let's look for a real opponent. Just sayin'.
