I feel the same too. Hell I didn't even know Rahman was still fighting.

[Otley]

Lets face it Rahman is a pile of crap...he got lucky when Lewis got sloppy and he may get lucky with Tyson Fury...don't expect to much cause i srr Fury winning the way he usually does and that is by a not too convincing stoppagr when Rahman quits in abt the 5th

job biscuit (rahman aint beaten any one for a long long time)!!!

eh eh!!!

For me Fury is an arm puncher who hits like a girl - has no stamina - and works weekends selling lucky heather.

.....if he followed through like he was supposed to he'd run the very real risk of knocking himself out with one of his uppercuts

Hasim Rahman needs to start collecting a pension or something. Who could believe this guy is still fighting? The combined record of his last 4 opponents is 92-50. Before that he lost to Klit, had a no contest against Toney, and before that fought guys with 23-16 and 8-6 records, respectively.

His last decent performances were in 2006 squeaking by Toney 114-114, 114-114, and 117-111 on the scorecards. Folks that's 5 years ago. Also he WAS ahead of Maskaev later that year---2006---on the cards before getting knocked out in the 12th.

NO WAY A 22 YEAR OLD LOSES against this worn-out fighter. And you can re-post my prediction here next week if I am wrong.

im not saying he will win, but he does have a punchers chance. Rahman has been Usa number 1 heavyweight of recent years.

I really hope Rahman has something left. If he does it'll be good night Fury! I am actually going to buy this PPV now!

[Majesty]

If Rahman came in at around the mid 230s id give him a shot. But lately he's been weighing in the 260s and mid 250s in his fights. He is a paycheck fighter right now. Just a name known for knocking out Lennox Lewis, nothing more nothing less. All his chances at a comeback he has screwed up himself by not coming in on shape. He showed up against Wladimir weighing in the high 250s, I don't expect him to all of a sudden find his desire against Tyson Fury.

There is a WORLD of difference between Wlad and Fury.

Would you fell better about Oliver McCall's chances against Fury ?

One thing about McCall, he won't lay down for anyone. He may be a crazy old bastard, but he's a tough crazy old bastard who can still punch.

cant believe rahman is still fighting, next they'll bring out Obed Sullivan for a comeback.
