Wladimir: Who does he fight next?

[ArawakWarria]

Briggs doesn't deserve a title shot but it would be great to see Wladimir KO someone like Shannon.


Povetkin isn't boring, CHAMBERS was the one not throwing any punches....Alex was very busy in that fight. Although Povetkin did get swelled up by Chambers pretty good.


I guess Tony Thompson could pose a threat and it would be nice if Wladimir KO'd him. A taller southpaw or one his one height would be a little easier to fight in my opinion.

Nikolay Valuev isn't a threat....that would be the easiest fight for Wladimir to look good in

Briggs won't get healthy enough to do anything, so I won't even mention him. If only he had a chin and some boxing skills...

Your man Povetkin doesn't stand in the ring five rounds with WK, and it's because he'll gas himself out while WK holds him!

Valuev would be easy...? Have you ever been punched by a 300lber?

Thompson is basically the same height and weight (one inch shorter & a few pounds heavier), I think the fight should be made, and it is probably a good thing that WK fought two southpaws beforehand. Things like that will make it a better fight. Plus they will promote it as the whole US / Ukraine hoopla all over again, so it could be good money.

Well everyone is bitching that Wladimir needs to KO someone....Briggs runs his mouth, they have a history of not liking each other and Shannon can be KO'd.

Povetkin won't stand a chance but it's not because Wlad holds....and frankly thats bullshit Wlad didn't get 44 KO's by holding people.

Wladimir hasn't been punched by a 300 pounder but VALUEV got rocked by Monte Barrett! Imagine seeing a 7 foot 300 pound fighter dropped like a sack of hammers!

If Thompson was marketable he would have had a title shot by now. Thompson is a solid cagey veteran and he'll be a tough fight but he has NEVER fought anyone of Wlad's calibre
