    Go Rock!

    He's got that big right hand. Anything is possible. Word is he was hurt before the Wlad fight and had surgery. He didn't disclose anything specific. I doubt it would have mattered though anyway.

    Rahman is gonna crush Miller. Then he said he wants a July fight and expects his weight to be in the 230's, which is good for him. Maybe he takes on a top 15-20 guy and gets a title shot/eliminator.

    Me too! I can't see how people don't like Rahman. He's way more exciting than most of these garbage, boring heavyweights the last ten years.

    I love Rahman, if he is smart, he stays away from the Klitschko brothers.

    If he was really smart, he'd position himself for the vacant WBC belt when Vitali retires this year.

    Fat chance.

    He can beat miller but has approximately zero chance at a successful title win

    Who's to say he won't get a title fight for the vacant WBC strap? Maybe against a guy who blows? Derric Rossy is in the top 10. You never know.

    Rahman isn't back the guy is done and should retire.

    I'll reserve judgment when I see him against a live body. He says he was fighting with injuries but had surgery. I will believe him and see if he looks better.

    If Sosnowski got a title shot, Rahman could conceivably get one at a vacant belt based on a few wins and his name. Especially if he gets some KO's. Heck, if he and Tua get together one more time I can see the winner of that one getting a shot.

    Rahman tapped his ass in 03 at 259 pounds. He'd still do a number on Tua.
