6'4 Travis Walker 24-0 with 18 KO's is calling out Hasim Rahman.:bbb Who do you guys think wins this fight ? :huh
Travis Walker is way overrated and gets hit too much...I have been watching this guy since I lived in Tallahassee where he is from...I have seen him get worked in sparring by a light heavyweight named Tavoris Cloud who is gonna be a real good fighter. Rahman tko8 Walker
Meh, Walker is sloppy but I would pick him to win just because Rahman is done and we could always use some new blood. Plus, Rahman isn't in the best shape and his chin is mediocre..Walker could land that right hand and finish him off.
Honestly after watching that terible performance by Rahman against Sykes I would give anybody a good shot to beat him.
Walker is pathetic, a little midget tubby in George Garcia nearly beat him and stunned him several times also. Rahman by KO. Walker is a tomato can with a padded record.
Walker needs to work on his defense. It seemed like the much smaller George Garcia was landing everything he threw, because Walker lunges foreward when he punches and gives up all his reach. Basically he jumps right into punches face first , when he lunges foreward , he got away with it against Estrada and Garcia as they have no punching power. Against a legit HW , Walker will be Ko'd.
WTF happend, why is my post edited by CzarKyle? I dont even see anything different. " last edited" 02-20-2006" ? Huh
Walker working on his defense isn't going to help him much. He's slow, he doesn't have great endurance (despite apparently training hard) and doesn't have great strength (despite being a behemoth). Overall I agree though. Walker would be in over his head against Rahman, or any serious contender.
As poor as Rahman's performance was against Sykes, Walker looked even worse against Garcia. As I said , Walker jumps face first into punches. Walker was at least 6 inches taller than Garcia, yet he still wasnt able to use his reach , and was hit constantly.
Walker may indeed have a padded record, but with Rahman's glass jaw, if he lands the right shot, he could score the upset. Doubt he has the ability to get it in though. Rahman's shaky whiskers, however, give ANY opponent a shot. Heck, Taurus Sykes rocked that china-chinned joke!
