    The way things have gotten in this sport, I fear a heavyweight fighter will do nothing close to this ever again in 12 months or any amount of time close to it.


    ...Was this some kind of sick-assed joke, man? That's not humanly possible!

    And the one fighter who is attempting to have two fights together? His opponent refuses to accept it is humanly possible!

    Not only is having two fights 9 weeks apart an impossibility, it is so impossible that it makes fighting the WBC champ impossible too!

    I think Kameda is ducking SNV. What a fight that would be. I think if Kameda can keep his power level in the 10,000 range he might steal a few rounds, but ultimately SNV would checkmate him with a crunkercut.

    No. Haye is a coward and a proven contract breaker!
