Make no mistake...he's for real. I was really skeptical for a good long while...but it's not the question of can he box & is he for real...but can he box at a higher level?

Can he hang with the elite?

Then again...the real question for the heavyweight division is...where are the fwockin elite fighters?!?!?!

Wlad Klitschko seems to be the only hope for the moment.
