Toney was offered 3 fights with either brother. The years were c2003 vs either, c2006 vs Wlad, and the latest was prior to Toney vs Greer. I was embellishing his reasoning's though otherwise I would have found direct quotes .....but ya gotta give me credit.....I came fairly close to what he must have said when turning down 1mil fights then taking 20K fights.
Barrett has already been utterly destroyed by Wlad almost a decade ago when he was actually in his prime, there is no need for that fight at all. Harris is just ****. He's nothing more than yet another insanely ranked Boxrec fighter. Don't forget they had Chisora ranked 9th in the World at one time, they can't be taken seriously.
It's 2 top 50 Hws, and an Arreola-ish opponent Vinny Maddalone. But yeah, Mormeck out landed, and was the aggressor against Oquendo, and fought a decent fighting beating Tiggy. Oquendo goes about 240ish, and Mormeck took it to him, even wobbling him a couple times. Guys got decent power at HW. Never seen Adamek wobble even the weakest of his Hw foes.
It's in the contract don't ya know. Should Mormeck KTFO Wlad, Vitali will promptly Iron him out and become undisputed.
Remember when the people in France were starving for bread, like we're starving for a HW challenger, the princess Antoinette told her advisor to "let them eat cake". I wasn't being serious, only rebutting the posters list of potentials for Wlad's optional defense. Barrett would be a recycled opponent and Harris id of course known more for fighting down to his opposition than he is for performing consistently at the Blevel........an american Michael Sprott of sorts.
Wlad should take this guy out inside 3 rounds but I fear another disgraceful performance against another small overmatched opponent. By round 4 or 5 I bet Manny Steward is shouting at Wlad again...
Is it too early to start betting in what second of round 1 Wlad will ko Mormeck? I say it's over before the clock strikes 33 seconds.
wlad should be ashamed ro fight mormeck at this stage of his title reign... seriously?!?!... mormeck was REALLY the best option left out there?!?!....i can't possibly see how they will justify selling this fight... atsch :rofl
