    The difference being Tua has knockout power..Ibragimov couldnt hurt wlad in a million years, despite his china chin. Christ he couldnt even reach his chin!

    Hey man you beat me to it, it's true, with Freddie in his corner, Khan isn't gonna be taking many risks either after his chin troubles.

    Not that there's anything wrong in that. Wlad and Vitali are not that exciting to watch but they're not as boring as people make out. This is boxing after all not a bar brawl, skills win fights and the Klits are the best in the division.

    When you are generally always larger than your opposition (which is "C" class in today's era as all the best large sized athletes are NOT in boxing) and you don't take risks and can't impress then you are simply NOT EXCEPTIONAL.

    And Maidana is the interim champ, and therefore also a mandatory. And he said they'll vacate before they face Maidana.

    Haye takes tons of risks, unless, of course, the risk happens to be getting in the ring with one of the Klitschkos.

    Sounds like Freddie is looking for a new trainer gig.

    :blabla:blabla

    I find it hard to believe that the contract was ok for 2 months then suddenly 2 weeks prior to the fight, the contract SUCKED:huh.... bull****, Haye was getting ****ED OVER by Sentanta and he pulled outof the fight...its not very complicated:verysad

    He didnt want the fight.. Haye asked foe 2 weeks wlad said yes...later that day, Haye said.."Um not 2 weeks I need 4 weeks"..Wlad said YES the next day...4 hours after the "Yes" from wlad it turned into 8-10 weeks.... Like I said...not very complicated to see what was happening:deal:hey

    So, you're saying the Klitschkos aren't relatively boring HW champs? At least in comparison to its history? I think so, and anyone who would deny this must be a fan. The division has been weak, that doesn't help, nor does their personalities. And of course, playing it safe in the ring doesn't either. Roach is right, face the facts.

    I think somebody is losing their mind. Be civil. Pete has tried to engage you in boxing conversation but you don't seem capable. What a suprise
