I can understand your view, i just think dimitrenko does have a way to go... but when you say a " totally shot" hoffman.. is this the ONE AND ONLY guy that went the distance with Vitali Klitschko? That Timo Hoffman? Let's remember, Dimitrenko is still green in a sense.. he has time and natural abilities that can be given to someone speaking in terms of size. You don't start out on top.. he's a work in progress.. i think you will in the next year see him on HBO IMO.
Yep...that Timo Hoffmann and you can be sure if Hoffmann would have been in his prime like vs Klitschko(or even against Krasnqi),Dimitrenko would have lost...I've following Dimitrenkos career for quite some time and I hope he will step it up soon,but so far he evaded the bigger names succesfully...

I don't so much think it's Dimitrenko ducking bigger names as much as Klaus Peter kohl being notorious for padding really rediculously impressive records for all of his fighters before sending them into the lion's den metaphorically speaking. All the German boxing stables do that.. they work a fighter up huge in europe and then make sure that they can somewhat withstand things and then make them fight bums a little more after that.. and then they finally give the someone with half a name.
