    Do you remember not too long ago Klitschko pulled out of a fight claiming a torn stomach muscle 2 days later he was caught on the golf course playing 18 holes.
    Fantastic recuperative powers huh ???? :yikes:fire

    Or you know, the guy is 38 years old. That's 2 years older than Lennox Lewis when he retired.

    Injuries happen. It becomes more frequent when you get older. Look at Martinez.

    :deal

    Wlad's 38, he's approaching 70 fights. His camp is the most professional I've ever seen at heavyweight. Just look at his training, nutrition, his team, etc... it blows away any other heavyweight, not even close.

    But with all of that, you still can't prevent injuries, especially in a sport such as boxing, it happens. And at least it's being rescheduled fairly soon, looks like just about 45-days difference...not that big of a deal (for fans anyway).

    Unfortunately, people should always keep injuries and postponements into consideration somehow and be more open minded about it.

    I run my own business and have honestly turned my life upside down to get from the uk to hamburg that weekend. flights, ringside seats and a good hotel have set me back a fortune but I have got to be pragmatic about it....I have lost what I spent on the hotel( pre paid for a cheap deal) and will have to pay more money to reschedule the flights but the fight tickets will be transferrable so it's not the end of the world!!

    I can't blame anyone these things happen and let's face it, i'm going to have to move some **** around to make sure i'm there on November 15th.. as soon as it's confirmed i'll be there

    Wlad will announce they made a deal to fight Stiverne in a few weeks time.

    Wlad don't have the nuts to fight a guy his own size.

    If he could fight Stiverne and unify, it would be legit, cause IBF normaly allowes a unification instead of a mandatory.. but I dont think King throws in Stiverne against Wlad...

    So he is injured and will knock the sh!t out of Pulev in November, you will see and cry Dinobaby :deal

    Nah, ,its over.

    K2 are too greedy, stubborn and have to much pride to give Pulev the fight after he dragged Wlads name through the mud.

    King will cash out Stiverne to K2. And Bountey probably paid a nice price so Wlad can avoid his ass beating from Pulev.
