Povetkin is out. Wlad will rematch peter instead!

[El Kabong]

Hi Lyle, been away for a while but now i'm back and glad to see you haven't changed one bit.

Personally I think Haye is waiting to see if Adamek beats Grant and if he does I think that will be Hayes next fight. I've noticed Adam Booth keeps bringing Adamek up whenever he's interviewed. Can't personally see the Harrison fight happening but if it does i have to admit i'll be disappointed in Haye.

Well I have to tell you the truth a fight with Chicken Little vs Adamek is something (on paper) that should excite all boxing fans, but to be honest I don't think Adamek can be in a bad fight. HOWEVER, I think that fight is too dangerous and that although an Adamek fight would most certainly draw big bucks it wouldn't make more money than a fight vs Wladimir.

By the way they sold 15,000 tickets before a replacement for Povetkin was even named so that's pretty good drawing power right there.

I still see the Harrison fight as the one that will happen #1 Harrison apparently has "real beef" with Chicken Little and really both their egos are so big you have to figure one would feel slighted by the media or fans and a fight would be made due to that #2 Its the fight Chicken Little needs to boost his rep in his home country and boost PPV sales for whenever he decides to fight Wlad or Adamek #3 Harrison is on a list with lots of washed up fighters and he's still the weakest and I have yet to see Chicken Little fight anyone but the weakest person listed as a potential matchup, just look at which title he went for.

He will fight and KO Adamek next!! Then for the man with the china chin or his older fading brother as his victim next year.

.....hhmmmm I think that's wishful thinking.

You see Adamek is fighting Michael Grant, it's not because Grant is relevant in today's division it's because of his size, power, but also his vulnerability. In fighting Grant Adamek is sizing up how he will do vs someone as big as a Klitschko brother...just my view of things. If Adamek does poorly vs Grant I think you may be correct but I doubt that he will have much trouble.

I would imagine that Chagaev, Bahktov, Ustinov, Meehan, maybe JC Gomez or a Jean Marc Mormek rematch would be in order after the Audley Harrison fight

[milmascaras1]

this fight between wladimir klitschko and samuel peter has mismatch written all over it. klitschko is going to destroy this guy with his jab alone, much less his powerful right hand. wladimir by TKO8.

[No Contest]

Wlad is such a puss, he always has his brother fight guys for him. Peter was wanting Wlad but Vitali jumped in, am I right or am I right? Now that he sees Peter isnt all that, hes willing to fight.

[No Contest]

If Wlad and Vitali ever fought Vitali would ktfo out of Wlad.lol

[El Kabong]

I highly doubt that but you and everyone else can continue to think that as for the "Wlad is such a puss" comment.....so Wlad never rematched Purrity or Sanders, but he demolished Chris Byrd (for Vitali) and he avenged his loss to Lamon Brewster in an easy manner. If you compare records Wlad's is hands down better.

The Ross Purrity loss doesn't mean much to me, because that was early in Wladimir Klitschko's career and he just run out of steam. Similar to David Haye's loss to Carl Thompson.

But he should of revenged the Corrie Sanders loss, that to me was/is still a pretty damaging loss. Because Corrie Sanders just blitzed him straight away, i would of liked to of seen. If he could of beat a dangerous Southpaw like Corrie Sanders.

Where as his loss to Lamon Brewster, was more of a fluke. Because Wladimir Klitschko dominated Lamon Brewster from start to finish, until he run out of gas. It was more like a Rocky comeback a once in a lifetime fight where he could take that punishment.

I would have liked to see Wlad rematch Sanders but to be honest by the time Wlad was back to his old self Sanders was done as a threat and the rematch would have been symbolic more than anything else

In short? No you are not right. Wlad and Peter had already fought couple years prior. Vitali used Peter as he re-entrance into the wonderful word of boxing.

Peter has looked way more impressive since his loss to Chambers. He weight fucking 265lbs in that fight. Now look at him tipping the scales at ~240lbs. He is in it to win it, but I still barely give him a shot at doing anything to the Klits.

and what was the excuse then for Chagaev, Peter (the first time around), Ibragimov, and hell every other top 10 HW that Wlad has taken out? there's only one PUSSY in HW boxing and that's David Haye

I completely forgot he fought Peter, thats how good the fight was I guess. Heh Peter went from fighting Taurus Sykes to Wlad, thats a bit of a step up ya think?

The excuse is that they suck basically. All Wlad does is jab/right cross. He will throw a left hook in once in awhile. Even Emmanuel Steward gets bored watching him fight, and that his freaking style he taught him.

[El Kabong]

I've been in this argument enough times to know that some people don't appreciate the way Wlad fights and there's no satisfying them, if Wlad threw down toe to toe vs everyone he fought from here on out and won people would still cite the fights where he didn't gun for the KO early and if he lost then they would say his style was a crutch.

Not everyone likes, appreciates, or respects Wlad and how good he is....and those people know fuck all about boxing.

That's such a horrible overstatement; I'll let you think about that one for a while. Do you actually rewatch Wlad of Vitali's fight? Do you rewatch JMM, Gatti, ODLH, Bowe, Holyfield, Toney fights? I thought so...

You can HAVE all this boring fights the Ukranians have "blessed" our sport with over the years. You must enjoy watching grass grow, putting bamboo shoots up your fingernails, and chinese drop torture in your free time.
