    Every day I check the local sports scores on ESPN.com. Occasionally I check the boxing section, but not very often. Fact is, they don't post many articles there. But when I checked the section today do you know what I saw? An article about the Klitschko callouts! I honestly cannot remember the last time I saw an article about a heavyweight fight that hadn't happened yet.

    Still, for some strange reason a lot of poster are complaining about these callouts...that they are either below Wlad, the champ to callout a challenger (beltholder) or that they won't do much good.

    I have only one question for all our you: are you guys daft? The war of worlds, verbal sparring and taunts is half the battle and one of the most effective promotional tools a fighter has access to. How many of you remember when Mike Tyson said that he would "Eat his (Lennox Lewis's) children?" Hell, I remember that better than I remember the actual fight. So, if you want this fight to happen you'll smarten up and see the light. :D

    I actually think the call out vids were a smart move. It's got the hardcore fans talking, as well as the casuals. In fact the audio of the call out got time and attention on BBC's radio 1 even, since when have they ever talked about boxing??

    They were decent videos too, simple but well produced virals, unlike those James Tony ones where he's standing outside burger king calling out everyone you can think of

    it's about time he started acting like a heavyweight champ! i'm stoked to hear him talking like this. it's really bringing some excitement finally. if he keeps it up he'll double the audience for his fight vs. haye. the simple fact that it's unlike him to do something like this is going to make the media eat it up.

    Smart move. It attracts alot of attention to the heavyweight scene, and our sport as a whole really.

    Abso-f#cking-lutely

    Haye is actually managing to make Wlad a more engaging character.

    This fight could be sensational for the careers of both protaganists.

    The video was very smart. He's getting older, the time to fight is now.

    I like the fact Wlad is becoming a little enertaining, even though his videos don't come off as natural imo. You could tell it's not in his character to act this way. I remember Lewis tried talking **** on Vitali, it was so bad it was comical.

    "We have them all except the WBA, which is why Haye is such an interesting cookie for me to eat"

    That quote along with with

    "I'm a prize fighter you #$%&in' dummy. I fight for prizes. Duh.." (or something like that)

    are two of my favorites!

    The Klits realize what haye is doing and they are getting pissed. This call out is my all time favorite. Every word from Wlad had me laughing and it was dead serious LOL. I know they needed a bunch of takes to complete this because Wlad looks like he's about to bust out laughing anytime.

    Gotta Love Wlad for this and the manner of which he did it.

    what did he say:huh:yep

    James looks HUGE again... what happened. I saw him back stage at the Vitali-Arreola fight. He was slim trim and looked fit:deal
