    For a trainer he's a pretty good fighter.

    Morons on HBO...

    Wlad doesn't hold the WBC, Vitali does, so if anything Banks is a step closer to challenging Vitali.

    Vitali retires and Banks fights Arreola for WBC belt.

    Haye will pop up again demanding a shot at whoever is the WBC champion.

    Banks future is a trainer not a fighter. Banks was brought it as a sacrificial lamb for Mitchell. I don't think anybody really believes Banks is a real contender.

    It's interesting. Banks was, as said before, a sacrificial lamb. But he won and he should capitalize. $$$$$$.

    Maybe a big fight against Adamek or someone. Obviously he knows he can't beat the Klitschkos, so he might wait until Vitali retires to get his shot.

    I think Banks will probably face the winner of Adamek - Cunningham. Adamek should win that and we'd have a solid rematch at our hands with Banks vs. Adamek. Would love to see that.

    During the post-fight interview Banks also said the only HW titleholder he sees himself challenging is Alexander Povetkin. He implied he won't fight either K brother.

    Funny story, maybe you should see the top 10 HW ranking of The Ring- the one that always favours american fighters. After adamek's wins over arreola and chambers he's clearly nr 1 in the usa.

    The Polish Adamek is the USAs best fighter?

    Adamek lives in the USA full-time now I do believe.

    I want to see Banks work his way into a fight with Wlad, and in between rounds run to Wlad's corner and give him advice, then run back to his corner before the break is over.

    Banks is a bum who should have lost to Jason Gavern and escaped with a draw in the land of his employers.

    Mitchell is beyond even bum-dom: he's not even a fighter. He's a football player on a lark.
