I'd go ahead and make plans to go out tomorrow afternoon, buddy. :yep If you're a fan of Rock, you're not going to want to watch this.
Zak, take a day off. ---------------- Klitschko looks good and Rahman looks bad. I think it is unlikely that Wlad is uninterested given Rahman's power and the Lennox Lewis connection (do not underestimate the latter given elder brother's obsession). There is nothing to indicate that he is not in good shape. Klitschko can easily win this fight as Rahman is pretty easy to stop (one way or another) and he is a class above Rahman. But then, Rahman does have some good experience and he has the power. I am not watching this fight tonight but if I was I would be a tad excited. Hopefully it provides a pleasant surprise - it would take a lot to let people down.
If any of his brother's killer instinct rubs off on him, then Wlad will dispose of the lethargic overweight Rahman in three rounds or less. Otherwise, this will be a nine round bore-fest followed by a devestating tenth round knockout of Rahman!
I do not think that he should put himself at unnecessary risk, but hanging around on the kill too much can be a mistake for him. Even in shape, big guys will get tired at some point and if Rahman connects and disorganizes Klitschko the fight could be wide open.
All this talk about rahman and his weight, reminds me of the forum prior to wlad-sanders. Posters were more busy discussing sanders moustache than his boxing skills. Everybody were sure of a fast klitsko victory...and look what happened.... In 2003 rahman met tua. he weighed in at 259 and everybody were laughing, me included. however he gave tua hell and deserved the win. if that rahman shows up tomorrow, wlad can have a long and hard night.
Well, since we are on the topic, it is fair to say that Rahman is probably around 250, and maybe just under. That is if he has his shoes on. I hope I do not regret posting this.
