Big rumour on who might fight wlad next

How many years has he held the IBF now? The IBO? The WBO? That makes 3 belts & one he's had for far longer than 1 year...............

 

The IBO is about as valuable as the belt I use to hold up my pants.

There is never going to be wide scale unification on a major level. Especially considering the WBA and their...loopy love affair with Don King.

 

Briggs is boring as hell and HBO won't approve him. When was the last time Briggs fought on HBO? 1998?

The guy throws 10 punches a round and is a 4 round fighter.

 

Chagaev will take the fight. If the WBA won't let him he should drop that shitty belt & let Valuev & Ruiz fight a fight that no one will watch & no one will make real money for.

Everyone knows that Chagaev already beat the giant & Don King made the Chagaev Valuev fight in Finland on purpose to make sure he didn't beat his meal ticket again & Chag would be blamed for it.

That would make the winner of Klitschko vs. Chagaev the IBF, WBO, IBO & WBA defacto Champion regardless of what Don King, Ruiz, Valuev or anyone at the WBA had to say about it. That woiuld effectively make the WBA completely valueless as if it isn't already. :deal

 

wlad's IBO > than chagaev's/valuev's wba

when an organization can split a belt three ways, it's a piece of ****.

 

Which is why Chagaev should drop it if necessary to fight Wladimir for more money than he's ever seen.

 

Those replica WWE belts that kids buy at Toys R Us>The WBA Belt

Doesn't make it anymore valuable.

You guys are so optimistic...It's like you're new to this whole HW championship shitfest. I wish I was that confident

 

that fat slob couldn't fit through the ropes or get over the top. never make it into the ring.

 

I doubt that HBO has much say who the replacement might be. Most of the money for this comes from German tv and Klitschko's K2 Promotions (via ticket sales).

 

Shannon would jump in for the paycheck wont he?

 

HBO has always had a thing for Briggs, even when he loses.

 

U know i really hate your Klit nut hugging but you make a valid point here!

 

i dont think its cool to joke about people having hiv
