    Rumsfeld, I watch all your videos.

    Here are some topics that come to mind that might be worth a video or two:

    - Andre Ward's future and whether he really has it in him to chase greatness (I have serious doubts - how do you feel about this?).

    - Relating to a thread you made, Fury's future as a heavyweight champion and just what sort of reign will he have.

    - Concurring with theanatolian: Boxing without Mayweather/Pacquaio/Klitschko.

    - The next definitive #1 P4P fighter will be...

    Thanks for the support, and appreciate the suggestions. :good

    I wish I had enough free time to do 1-2 of these every week. They would all make excellent episodes, and as I was creating the Fury thread, I was actually wishing I had tackled that in my Fury-Wlad recap that I wasn't really intending to do an episode on. I had assumed Wlad would win.

    My next two episodes are already planned out, and one is a work-in-progress.

    I will definitely cover the Ward theme at some point, probably shortly after his next fight is announced, because I have a ton of stuff I'd like to say about the possibility of Ward-Kovavel, and about Ward in particularly, which will largely touch on the theme you suggested.

    Was also working on another idea, that was narrower in scope to what theanatolian suggested, but I liked his idea and will accordingly expand the scope on that one when I get to it.

    The Fury idea? I like it, and am curious about it myself. Like stated in the thread, I think Fury could go either way on the discipline outside the ring. Fury is full of charisma, and I'll definitely be inclined to include him in future themes.

    As for P4P, I don't feel comfortable on that topic because I think the field is wide open, at that we may see some placeholders holding that distinction until a new clear king emerges.

    In any case, thanks! Hoping to get a few more done this month than usual.

    :good

    Yes, that's why I suggested the P4P theme, because it is wide open, so it would open up chance for some interesting speculation and a general overview on some contenders.. and it might be a couple of years before somebody can really lay a solid claim to the title, and as such it offers you the chance to be prescient with a prediction or two (if you can stand maybe getting it wrong again ;)).

    It's the most ambitious and speculative idea though, so can understand your apprehension.

    Looking forward to your next offerings and your plans sound good fo sho.

    I've called on your help once before, and I'm near certain that won't be the last time that happens. Thank you!

    I of course cannot speak for everyone, but I am most certainly a big fan of the Easton Assassin.

    Next release should be in a day or two. I think it should probably be more enjoyable for most than my typical episode, albeit quite a bit longer.

    Good stuff. It seemed to me your Wlad-Fury prediction was spot on when you made it. Fury just surprised all of us. We assumed he had avoided tall guys because he wouldn't be able to impose his size on them, but in reality, maybe Team Fury didn't want to give away clues to the tactical plan against Klitschko. Team Klitschko seems to have assumed that at some point Fury would lose discipline and leave himself open like he did in the Cunningham fight.

    Banks offered good advice in the corner, but you make a good point that Steward might have found a way to get through to Wlad.

    Steward's commentary from your interviews way back when about Fury being the "dark horse" of the heavyweight division, with exceptional instincts in the ring, prove prescient. I believe Team Klitschko used the plan Steward had devised to defeat Povetkin. But I doubt Steward got around to devising a plan for Fury.

    These videos are better than Game of Thrones, and Don Mattingly's mustache.
