    The problem is they win soooo easily that HBO is blamed for broadcasting mis-matches.

    Do you talk about anyone other than Wlad? I'm beginning to think you're a troll, mate.

    Thats true, the division is terrible aside from Wlad and Vitali. I'm sick of seeing Wlad fight fat or undersized Heavyweights with a limmited amount of skill who appear to be there just for the paycheck.

    :rofl:lol: Did you say Ali? Ali would of made Wlad come to him, and after chasing a young Ali for 8 rounds Wlad will start to fade and eventually have a panic attack in splatter to the canvas like paint after Ali started catching him with pinpoint straight right hands.

    Like Tony Thompson? He is six foot five. MCcline was six foot six and 275 pounds. Derick Jefferson was also six foot six. Small guys?

    Thompson has almost no punching power, and both McCline and Jefferson were guys he fought about 6 years ago. Wlads last 10 oppenents, only like 3 of them were over 6'2, Austin, TOS, and Thompson.

    Besides David Haye, who else would you prefer to see Wlad fight? The fat/undersized HWs you speak of were in most cases title holders or mandatories at the time of the fight. Remember that Rahman was a last-minute replacement for injured Povetkin. Otherwise, Wlad has been fighting the highest ranked opponents available, besides Vitali, of course. So who should it be?

    They want him to fight 1988 Tyson, 1968 Ali. And if Wlad beats them, then he has to fight Larry Holmes. Then Louis, Dempsey, Marciano. THen King Kong, Then Godzilla. WHen he beats them, then what can they say? Oh they should make a super heavyweight division for robots.

    Bully him by making him fight the guy that he agreed to fight??? some of this cats act like Haye said he didnt want the fight, he only asked for time to heal. Was he really hurt??? I dont know, but the fact that Wlad didnt want to fight him to start with, but was kinda shamed into taking the fight and once Haye said he was hurt Wlad was too happy and quick to move on. This after him saying that he couldnt wait to fight Haye and shut his big mouth. Now it appears that Vitali will be fighting Haye, the problem is the Klit lovers act as if this will somehow prove that Wlad could or would have beat haye if Vitali beats Haye. They are for the most part the worst fans of any fighter. In one sentance they say they are different, and should be seen as different then in the next they say one of the Klit brothers will beat him.

    To be honest I thought that Haye had a much better shot of beatting the weak chinned weak willed Wlad then he does of beatting Vitali who is a much tougher fighter, but holding true to form Vitali is once again taking on the biggest threat to his little bro, and protecting like he was a 9 year old running from a bully.

    Oh yeah did I mention that Farmboxer is a dumbass:yep

    Besides Haye, I would like to see him face Valuev. Laugh if you want, but after studying both guys, this might be Wlad's toughest test since Peter in 05. This is also a very marketable fight, even to America, were it can be marketed as "The biggest fight of all-time, when two giants stand above the earth, one must fall". Then just show both mens biggest knockouts and the mainstream fans will be dumb enough to buy it, because the majority of people haven't seen either man fight. So they dont know one man is ultra-cautious and boring (Wlad) and the other has average power and boring (Valuev).

    This fight if marketed right, can be huge in the states and the biggest fight that could be made after Haye/Wald.

    That would be a horrible fight, Wlad is scared to death to engage fighters, and he wouldnt be able to stand on the outside and pitty pat the giant, so nothing would be going on in that fight. It would look like Wlad vs McCline, two fighters scared to throw a punch.

    What im I misinformed about??? That it would be a boring fight or that Wlad is scared to engage fighters??

    I could care less one way or the other about Wlad. I dont think that I have ever watched one of his fights thinking man I hope he wins or loses. I have never been a fan of heavyweights and have never went out of my way to watch a heavyweight fight. Its the worst brand of boxing there is. I like to watch two in shape skilled fighters, not to slobs out of shape winging shots to a couple of rounds then dancing like bears in a tutu.

    I havent said anything that was misinformed on this thread, its either been MY opinions or facts neither of which can be misleading.:hi:

    At this point, I'd figure the Haye fight to be more likely. Valuev's handlers have historically no interest in negotiating with K2. I suspect somebody else will defeat Valuev before any Klitschko gets a chance. Which is too bad for Valuev. Based upon his recent fights, he needs to take a big money fight and cash out; cuz he's done, buddy.
