I don't know when this fight is on or what channel but I am always excited about heavyweight fights. Dimitrenko is a young southpaw, he's big, he's trained by Wlad's (former) and Vitali's (current) trainer Fritz Sdunek. He's athletic and quick but lacks the power of the Klitschko's. Krasniqi is a solid old pro, he's not put out his best performances recently but he's a solid fighter with decent power and if he's able to weather the storm he could stop Dimitrenko.


I call for Dimitrenko to win on points (soundly) or by late stoppage.

Very good assessment...Dimitrenko should wins this and must if he wants a title chance...and a win for Krasniqi would put him up in the ranking again...either way a career deciding fight...

I think the winner and loser of this fight will be in consideration for the winner of the Haye-Barrett fight

WBO #1 ranked heavyweight Alexander "Sascha" Dimitrenko (29-0, 19 KOs) scored an impressive third round knockout over former world title challenger Luan Krasniqi (30-4-1, 14 KOs) on Saturday night at the Burg-Wächter Castello in Düsseldorf, Germany. Coming back from a loss to Tony Thompson in a WBO eliminator 16 months ago, the 37-year-old Krasniqi knowing this is likely his last chance, took the fight to the 6'8 Dimitrenko and won the first two rounds. However in round three, the 26-year-old Dimitrenko landed a crushing left hook to the body, and Krasnigi collasped painfully to a knee for the full count. Time was 2:54. Dimitrenko retained his WBO Intercontinental belt and remained on a collision course for his Ukrainian countryman WBO champion Wladimir Klitschko. Heavyweight Denis Boytsov (23-0, 18 KOs) won an eight round unanimous decision over American fan favorite Vinny Maddalone (31-5, 22 KOs

I am still not sold on Dimitrenko's power....Krasniqi has been on the edge of being a journeyman for a while now. Ever since Brewster KO'd him he's been horrible...it's time for him to hang 'em up.
