    Just because it's on Boxrec, doesn't mean it on for certain.

    Yup I wont believe till it is not official! But there is not much time left if Klitschko wants to fight in 2 months he needs to find a opponent soon!

    That's right, i think i was a bit overhasty, but taking into account the rumours it's rather probable that this fight is going to happen.

    Might be more than you bargained for, so get comfortable. :pop

    Pianeta will lose every minute, but he's likely to go into deep waters if not the full twelve IMO - between his awkward style rooted in a Muay Thai background, being a southpaw, having a cautious in-ring disposition, and having shown a decent enough chin in the past (against Sosnowski and the wizened bingo team of Skelton, McCall and Botha)

    Yup!
    He is a solid boxer! But very boring to watch! Nothing comes from him what could do some trouble for Wladimir.... so an easy tne up fight for him if they really fight.

    I hope this fight gets the sold out arena full of Germans it so clearly deserves.

    He will be very cautious against Klitschko, and keep his best weapon (the left cross) in his pocket, fearful of countering lest Wladimir time him with his faster - and eminently more devastating - straight punches.

    He occasionally looks swift when he comfortable throwing a cluster without concern of what's coming back (either because the opponent is powerless or very slow) but even at its best the speed is average.

    It's either fight scared and get shut out, or take risks and get KTFO.

    Except who he picked has no business fighting for any titles let alone fighting against Wlad. This fight is a sad joke.

    K2 won't need the usual stacked undercard to sell this one.
