Wlad Klitschko vs Hasim Rahman

[bambamdaddio]

I keep getting this feeling Rahman is going to pull off a upset all over again he has the reach and power to cause Wlad some problems.

Hasim Rahman was a decent fighter with a good punch, now he's garbage fighter with a good punch. I can't see an upset here at all, your thinking too much about Lennox Lewis vs Hasim Rahman 1 and letting it cloud your judgement.

But surely that would at least mean the upset is possible if the punch is still there & as its always the last thing a boxer loses it should still be there, & altho Rahman is not the fighter of old the punch he carries today is the same one he bombed our Lennox out with ...

I suppose the point Im making is if a bomb lands from a heavy weight it causes serious problems ...

upsets even

....it doesn't seem like a smart move for hasim to come in so heavy.

I want Rahman to win, bring the world title back in U.S., and I wanna see my Riverside homeboy Arreola beat his azz.

I WOULD be concerned if Rahman had the sneaky ability to KO people like Corrie Sanders did. This does seem like a fight that Wlad wouldn't worry too much about but honestly Hasim Rahman has been so piss poor the past couple fights he has had that I am not worried.


Wladimir is fighting at his best and barring Rahman having an iron chin or just swinging like a mad man from the get go we're going to see a beat down.


Watch Rahman vs Maskaev I & II, it's all you have to see. Sure Rahman has reach but he is too lazy in the ring and doesn't counter well at all AND Manny Steward is in Wlad's corner and I'll be damned if Manny is letting Wlad sleep on Rahman!

If you're going to bet on this fight you might as well bet on Rahman because you'd have to bet so much on Wlad to make money it's not even worth it.

The most interesting thing about Wladimir Klitschko is that he has 5 consonants in a row in his last name. I'll bet no other champion in history, besides his brother, has that distinction.

Anybody else here giving Rahman a chance to win?

Maybe he'll get KTFO. But I'm rooting for him anyway.

[HattonTheHammer]

Wlad has a decidedly dodgy chin

Rahman is a well known heavy hitter other than anything else..

To suggest Hasim doesnt have a chance is pretty stupid if you ask me!!!

He has lost the fight, too heavy and ill disciplined to get in shape. Deserves to get KTFO for that.
