    Vlad tried to get a rematch with Sanders, but Sanders refused.

    I told a member of Team Klitschko, warning him not to fight Sanders, also wrote Klaus Peter Kohl and posted on boxing.de. I also posted right here on ESB that Vlad might get beaten. Vlad did not train much for that fight, he had never seen Sanders fight, did almost zero sparring, did not spar with a south paw, lifted weights a lot, came into the ring cold. Vlad would have beaten Sanders in a rematch. I had told them that a win over Sanders would mean nothing and a loss would look bad. Sanders had been training to fight Valouev in South Africa, was in the best shape of his entire career. Hell, he came in at only 225 lbs...............Vlad had just TKO'd McCline when McCline was at his peak. He was let down when Klaus Peter Kohl had him fight Sanders instead of a top ten contender. After that Klitschkos finally got rid of Kohl over time. Vlad was TKO'd in that fight because he did not train and came into that fight cold as and iceberg! This was a time when I was doing some work for Klitschko.com, etc..............

    on my dvd copy of the fight Waldo tells the HBO people there's a
    rematch clause and that he will get the re-match!


    Sanders has Waldo's number and could stop his current Golf & Beer tour
    and Whoop Waldo again at age 46 :yep

    make the fight! :deal

    I think the Arreola fight was another time when Vitali was
    taking care of someone that might be able to bum-rush Waldo
    like Sanders did...

    before Vitali took the fight... Arreola's handlers were saying they
    were trying to line up a Waldo fight!

    Brewster was Sanders challenger for WBO not Wlad.

    Then Sanders decided to vacate WBOgus and fight against Vitali for bigger payday

    Vitali didn't technically "step in" for his little bro vs Sanders, but that doesn't matter, because Wladimir will always be critisized for not rematching Purrity and Sanders and rightfully so.

    Nope, getting big bro to do your dirty work doesn't cut it.

    Do what Lewis did when he had his 2 freak losses, rematch and show the world they were just that, a freak occurance.
