Soooooooo......

This is a horrible horrible fight.

What? Valuev getting KO'd is horrible?!?!?! I fail to see why? I mean even if you think Wladimir is boring the ends justifies the means! Valuev + KO'd = Good for boxing, Good for TV, good for the heavyweight division.

I mean think of it, #1 Wlad's defense has improved dramatically and now without any negative effects on punch output #2 Wlad has already KO'd guys bigger than himself before (McCline, Austin, Thompson) #3 Valuev has NO power #4 The biggest power puncher Valuev fought was probably Evander Holyfield or John Ruiz #5 Wlad is set to let his hands go for this upcoming fight....I can sense it, he's been pissed off by David Haye and he wants to send a message. Wlad SAYS "I'll cut his face up for 12 rounds" but Wlad MEANS "I am going to stomp this sucker from round 1".

Wlad vs Valuev would be a straight up ass whuppin....everyone knows it, why aren't you on board GET ON DA' BUS!

I'd like to see Valuev KO'd but would that mean he goes away? Doubtful. So its kind of pointless.

Well no he wouldn't go away but #1 Valuev would no longer have a belt and #2 He would have to fight Wlad or Vitali to get a belt back.

Pointless it would be GREAT!!!!

Alexander Dimitrenko 29(19 KO)-0-0 (Ranked #4 IBF and #1 WBO) and Eddie Chambers 34(18 KO)-1-0 (ranked #3 IBF and #5 WBO) are scheduled to fight in an elimination bout July 4th....I bet they try and land one of those guys.

Other than that Cedric Boswell and Brian Minto wouldn't be horrible

ffs Lyle get it together man

[El Kabong]

Minto has never been KO'd before...he would put pressure on Wlad, or at least TRY to win which you can't really say about other guys. Some fighters get "star struck" when they get a title shot, I for one don't think Minto would. I think he'd be horribly outclassed, but he would give it 100%.


....and it would put Wlad in position if he KO'd Minto early (which he would) to fight vs Haye, Povetkin, Dimitrenko/Chambers in another couple of months if HBO saves up it's money

[OumaFan]

Minto went through hell with that dude who's got a tattoo around his neck

plus I hear he's dropping down to 175 to fight Yusuf Mack in Trinidad

[El Kabong]

Vinnie Maddalone? The guy is a crowd pleaser....Minto might make Wlad FIGHT....isn't that what people complain about, guys like Sultan and Rahman who just didn't show up and allowed Wlad to do his thing and people didn't like it. Well imagine if someone pressured Wladimir and made him fight....it might allow us to see something new from Wladimir.
